Menopause is impacting your sleep. Prof Walsh reveals how the hormonal shifts and other physiological changes during this life stage can significantly disrupt sleep quality.

In this episode, we delve into the challenges of researching menopause and sleep, exploring why it's a relatively under-researched area. Professor Walsh details his work with elite athletes, demonstrating how simple bedroom adjustments—like temperature control and the use of earplugs—can dramatically improve sleep consistency during the menstrual cycle and menopause. He explains the interconnectedness of temperature regulation, sleep cycles, hunger, and satiety, highlighting the hypothalamus's crucial role. The episode provides practical advice for improving sleep during menopause, emphasizing the importance of creating a consistent sleep routine and optimizing the bedroom environment for optimal rest.
