Did you know that cortisol surpresses melatonin?.....stress causes cortisol hikes......insulin is a stressor that very much affects cortisol as well. SO, insulin resistance, pushes cortisol up which over time affects melatonin and therefore sleep. now immagine also being low in progestrone & estrogen as well. this is the perfect storm for menopause sleep issues! Got tested! dont guess.
