<p>Did you know that women are twice as likely to suffer from <a title="Sleep Secret Audio" href="http://www.sleepsecretaudio.com" target="_blank">insomnia</a> than men? Some research suggests that certain social factors, such as being unemployed or divorced, are related to poor sleep and increase the risk of insomnia in women. Also, insomnia tends to increase with age.</p>
<p><span style="font-family: &quot;Microsoft Sans Serif&quot;;">Sometimes <a href="http://www.womenshealth.gov/faq/perimenopause.cfm">perimenopausal</a> (the time leading up to menopause) women have trouble falling <a title="Press Play, Then Sleep" href="http://www.sleepsecretaudio.com" target="_blank">asleep</a> and staying asleep; hot flashes and night sweats often can disturb sleep. Pregnancy also can affect how well a woman sleeps.</span></p>
<p>If you think you have insomnia, talk to your doctor. It might be helpful to complete a <a title="Sleep Secret Audio" href="http://www.sleepsecretaudio.com" target="_blank">sleep</a> diary for a week or two, noting your sleep patterns, your daily routine, and how you feel during the day. Discuss the results of your sleep diary with your doctor. Your doctor may do a physical exam and take a medical history and sleep history. Your doctor may also want to talk to your bed partner to ask how much and how well you are <a title="Press Play, Then Sleep" href="http://www.sleepsecretaudio.com" target="_blank">sleeping</a>. In some cases, you may be referred to a sleep center for special tests.</p>
<p><span style="font-family: &quot;Microsoft Sans Serif&quot;;">Sincerely,</span></p>
