Struggling to sleep? It might not be “just stress” 🌙
Your hormones play a huge role in how well you sleep and when they’re out of balance, sleep often suffers.
Here’s how 👇
✨ Progesterone
This is your calming hormone. When levels drop (hello perimenopause 👋), falling and staying asleep can feel impossible.
🔥 Cortisol
High stress = high cortisol. If it’s elevated at night, your brain thinks it’s time to go, not rest.
🌙 Melatonin
Your sleep hormone naturally declines as we age and blue light, late nights, and hormone shifts don’t help.
🌊 Oestrogen
Fluctuations can cause night sweats, hot flushes, and restless sleep, especially in the lead-up to menopause.
The good news?
Supporting your hormones with the right nutrition, lifestyle habits, and personalised care can make a real difference to your sleep.
If broken sleep is becoming your normal, it’s time to look deeper, your hormones may be asking for support 🤍
