7.Menopause
Usually in middle age, a woman’s body slowly stops making progesterone and estrogen. The shifting balance of hormones, as well as other changes that typically happen in life at this time, can make you more sensitive to things like stress that affect sleep. Severe hot flashes — surges of adrenaline that raise your body temperature — could be so uncomfortable that you wake up drenched in sweat, sometimes several times a night.
8.PMS
Women with premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and the more serious premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) often have trouble sleeping. This usually happens shortly before or during your period. Hormone changes can affect your body’s temperature and its production of melatonin, a hormone important for sleep. Also, mood changes due to PMS or PMDD may make it harder to get a good night’s sleep.
