Before we dive in—what's the #1 question you have about perimenopause? | | —Ava Durgin, assistant health editor | | | | | The #1 sleep habit for perimenopause symptoms Up to 60% of women in perimenopause and menopause deal with regular sleep disturbances, from trouble falling asleep, to 3 a.m. wake-ups, to nights that feel anything but restorative—thanks to hormonal shifts that affect temperature and mood, plus stress-driven cortisol spikes.¹
Sleep scientist Wendy Troxel, Ph.D., offers a solution: wake up at the same time every day. This habit helps reset your body's circadian rhythm and builds the "sleep drive" you need for the following night.
Her go-to morning formula (the RISE strategy) makes it easier: - Refrain from hitting snooze
- Increase movement (a stretch or quick walk)
- Splash your face with cold water
- Expose yourself to 10–20 minutes of sunlight
Perimenopause makes sleep tricky, but mornings are your leverage point. A consistent wake-up, movement, and light exposure can do more for your energy, mood, and resilience than any "quick fix."
