Yes. Sleep disturbances during menopause are often hormone-related. As estrogen and progesterone decline, they affect both sleep rhythm and body temperature regulation. Many wake up during the night due to hot flashes or find it harder to fall asleep.

Sleep problems as a major factor affecting quality of life during menopause. Hormone therapy can help when sleep is disrupted by hot flashes, but not everyone needs it. Good sleep habits — like consistent routines, less screen time, and a cool bedroom — often make a big difference.

Seek help if poor sleep affects your energy, mood, or focus. Both hormonal and non-hormonal treatments are available.
