Characterised by a sudden feeling of intense heat throughout the body, hot flushes are one of the most common signs of perimenopause. \u201cThese can ramp up at night, further disturbing sleep,\u201d Goncalves continues.<\/p>\n<p>While some women are in perimenopause for just a few months or a year, it can last up to a decade for others, having a long-term effect on sleep. As sleep and temperature regulation are closely interconnected processes, the double whammy of declining oestrogen and balmy summer temperatures can have a debilitating effect on maintaining a healthy sleep schedule.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-408165\" src=\"https:\/\/formnutrition.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/inForm-perimenopause-copy-image-2-1-1200x675.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" srcset=\"https:\/\/formnutrition.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/inForm-perimenopause-copy-image-2-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/formnutrition.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/inForm-perimenopause-copy-image-2-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/formnutrition.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/inForm-perimenopause-copy-image-2-1-680x383.jpg 680w, https:\/\/formnutrition.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/inForm-perimenopause-copy-image-2-1-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/formnutrition.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/inForm-perimenopause-copy-image-2-1-600x338.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<h1>What practical steps can you take to improve sleep?<\/h1>\n<p>We all know by now the many benefits of a good night\u2019s kip, from our immunity to our energy levels. So how can you make sure you\u2019re getting enough of it?<\/p>\n<p>According to Goncalves, simple night-time strategies can make all the difference during the summer. \u201cI recommend keeping the bedroom cool by using fans, an air conditioning unit, or opening windows during cooler times of the day. Using light bedding, such as linen sheets and lower tog duvets, and wearing breathable sleepwear can also help with temperature regulation.\u201d Try swapping out heavy flannel pyjamas for light cotton or bamboo materials, which are soft, remain cool on the skin and wick moisture away from the body.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of materials, Goncalves says your choice of upholstery can affect room temperature. \u201cTry using light-coloured curtains or blinds to reflect sunlight away rather than attracting it in,\u201d she suggests. \u201cI like to keep electronic devices away from the bed too, and use a sleep mask or earplugs to block out light and noise.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If hot flushes have prevented you from getting a decent night&#8217;s kip, an afternoon cup of coffee can feel like a godsend. However, Goncalves says it&#8217;s best to steer clear of caffeine pick-me-ups and stick to decaf options if you&#8217;re struggling to sleep.<\/p>\n<p>Caffeine peaks in the blood within 30-60 minutes of drinking it, giving you a fairly instant perk, but it has a much longer half-life of three to five hours, which can keep you up at night. She explains: \u201cAs well as limiting coffee, try to avoid eating heavy meals and drinking alcohol close to bedtime.\u201d She adds that food containing high amounts of sugar and saturated fat can typically increase the likelihood of sleep disruptions, while foods rich in fibre and unsaturated fat tend to better promote sleep.<\/p>\n<p>While it\u2019s tempting to put off a gym class, Goncalves says you should schedule fitness earlier in the day, because exercise raises your core body temperature, and it takes time for the body to cool down afterwards. \u201cInstead, practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing or meditation before bed,\u201d she suggests.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-408166\" src=\"https:\/\/formnutrition.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/inform-perimenopause-copy-image-3-zzzzs-1200x675.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" srcset=\"https:\/\/formnutrition.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/inform-perimenopause-copy-image-3-zzzzs.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/formnutrition.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/inform-perimenopause-copy-image-3-zzzzs-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/formnutrition.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/inform-perimenopause-copy-image-3-zzzzs-680x383.jpg 680w, https:\/\/formnutrition.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/inform-perimenopause-copy-image-3-zzzzs-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/formnutrition.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/07\/inform-perimenopause-copy-image-3-zzzzs-600x338.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<h1>What about supplements?<\/h1>\n<p>If you\u2019re struggling with sleep and want to explore natural remedies, Goncalves says that upping your supplement game could help you to get more rest, although she adds that their efficacy can vary.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHerbal supplements like valerian root, chamomile, or black cohosh have sleep-promoting properties that may support more restful sleep,\u201d she notes. Form\u2019s nootropic sleep supplements \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/formnutrition.com\/plant-based-nutrition\/zzzzs-nootropic-for-sleep\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ZZZZ\u2019s<\/a>\u2019 combine 5HTP with calming amino acids and the dietary minerals magnesium and zinc to support sleep naturally. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC8181734\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Studies<\/a> have found that 5HTP, in particular, can boost serotonin production, which plays a key role in regulating the sleep-wake cycle, making it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep throughout the night.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, it&#8217;s always advisable to check with your doctor that any new supplements you&#8217;re considering don&#8217;t clash with any medications you may be taking.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf lifestyle modifications and natural remedies aren\u2019t helping, you might need to chat to your GP about medical interventions or prescription treatments for managing sleep disturbances related to perimenopause and hot weather,\u201d says Gonclaves.<\/p>\n<p>Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a treatment used to help relieve some of the most common symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings and reduced sex drive. It works by replacing hormones that are at a lower level due to menopause. It\u2019s worth speaking to your doctor as some types of HRT have been linked to potentially serious side effects, but there may also be big benefits and the NHS say that these generally outweigh the risks.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, some women find that mindfulness-based talking therapies make a difference. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a form of psychotherapy that focuses on addressing and changing unhealthy patterns of thinking and behaviour. In CBT sessions, a therapist typically helps you to identify unhelpful thought patterns around sleep and teaches you to replace them with more realistic and positive thoughts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs with most things, it\u2019s important to give each option and strategy a try to see what works best, as results can vary from person to person,\u201d says Gonclaves. That said, if you&#8217;re finding your perimenopause symptoms particularly difficult to manage, make an appointment to speak to your GP as treatments and support are available.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Getting a decent night&#8217;s sleep during perimenopause can be a challenge, especially in warm weather.
