Patient's question:
I am 47 years old, female, and recently experiencing severe menopausal symptoms. I often suffer from insomnia and neurasthenia at night, and by the third day, I feel completely exhausted. How can I deal with insomnia and frequent dreams during menopause?Doctor's answer:
Insomnia and sleep maintenance disorders can be caused by various reasons, with symptoms including difficulty falling asleep, insufficient depth or frequency of deep sleep, early awakening, and inadequate or poor-quality sleep. These are common conditions. It is advisable to adjust your schedule properly, avoid staying up late, eliminate bad habits, and simultaneously strengthen exercise, relax your mind, and release negative emotions regularly. After getting into bed at night, you can listen to soothing music, as music has a very good effect in relieving stress. Relax your whole body, and it is best not to eat foods that can cause excitement before bed. Drinking a bit of milk can help with deep sleep. Additionally, for women entering menopause, it is important to scientifically plan their lives, engage in physical and mental labor within their capabilities, enrich their lives, and pay attention to the cultivation of their character.
