About this Research Topic
Sleep is a vital component of overall well-being and health. Throughout the lifespan, a woman undergoes significant biological changes that can have notable effects on her sleep. The menstrual cycle and pregnancy can impact sleep patterns and increase the susceptibility to sleep disorders. Hormonal fluctuations during menopause, for instance, may lead to enduring alterations in sleep quality. Exploring these associations is crucial for advancing our scientific understanding of the intricate interplay between the biological and lifestyle changes that occur across the lifespan and women's sleep. In turn, more research is needed to understand how sleep affects health and well-being among women, especially during key reproductive periods.
This Research Topic aims to shed light on the intricate connections between sleep and women's health, offering insights into the challenges, opportunities, and potential interventions related to optimizing sleep and its related outcomes for women.
This Research Topic seeks contributions exploring the intersection of sleep and women's health. It encompasses a broad spectrum of subtopics, including but not limited to:
1. Sleep patterns and disruptions during different life stages, including adolescence, pregnancy, postpartum, and menopause.
2. The influence of hormonal fluctuations on sleep quality and duration.
3. Sleep disorders and their prevalence, diagnosis, and treatment in women.
4. Impact of sleep disturbances on mental health, cognitive function, cardiometabolic health, and overall well-being in women.
5. The role of lifestyle factors, such as exercise, nutrition, and stress management, in enhancing sleep quality.
6. The interplay of sleep and other lifestyle factors in relation to health outcomes.
We welcome original research articles, reviews, perspectives, and clinical studies that contribute to the understanding of the multifaceted aspects of sleep and women's health. Additionally, we encourage submissions that propose effective strategies, interventions, and policies to promote optimal sleep and well-being in women.
