What are the reasons that cause insomnia in women during menopause

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. What could be the reason for women's menopausal insomnia?

Doctor's answer:

Answer: Causes of Insomnia in Women during Menopause
1. Irritated Mind
As women age, their patience decreases, and they become more easily angered. Many women in menopause can feel changes in themselves, such as becoming pickier about things they used to tolerate. This affects their mood, causing irritability and worsening insomnia.
2. Decreased Estrogen and Hormonal Changes
When women enter menopause, their ovarian function gradually declines, leading to reduced estrogen secretion. During this time, women may experience palpitations, irritability, insomnia, chest tightness, depression, memory decline, and increased excitability.
3. Night Sweats and Hot Flashes
Night sweats and hot flashes disrupt normal sleep patterns, making it difficult to fall asleep. This not only reduces sleep quality but also causes depression, irritability, and low mood. Women may want to sleep but cannot due to these reasons.
