I'm just so tired. It's the lament of sleepdeprived women everywhere, as they juggle family, work, chores, and social lives.
Add to that the effects of pregnancy or menopause, a partner who snores, or a condition such as arthritis or depression, and you have a potent recipe for sleep disorders that are more likely to affect women-often more severely-than men. Worse, many women's sleep disorders are undiagnosed or misdiagnosed because their symptoms differ from men's, or their doctor is unaware of how unique female biology affects sleep. Now, in this ground-breaking primer, an internationally recognized sleep researcher and clinician-one of the first to study sleep disorders and diagnose sleep apnea-gives new hope for tired women everywhere, revealing
- Why insomnia is more prevalent in women and how to treat it
- Why 80 percent of pregnant women have disturbed sleep
- How menopause can lead to breathing problems during sleep, and how to treat them
- How to juggle life's responsibilities and still protect sleep time
- How women can recognize sleep disorders in their partners and children
- How thyroid disease mimics sleep disorders
- How a sleep lab can help-and what to expect
Written in a clear, easy-to-read style, and packed with useful case studies, this comprehensive guide also features tools to help the reader keep a sleep diary, a resource list of sleep clinics, Internet sites, and drug therapies, and a foreword by Richard Gelula, Executive Director of the National Sleep Foundation.
