This Is Perimenopause

Counting sheep not cutting it anymore? You're not alone.
Up to 60% of women in perimenopause struggle with sleep issues. And it might not be the wine or worry that’s keeping you up. It could be sleep apnea. And you thought that was just for overweight men.
Join us for a deep dive into sleep apnea with our guest, Dr. Woganee Filate, a sleep medicine physician. She's pulling back the covers on:

• Why hormones are hijacking your sleep.
• The surprising link between hot flashes and sleep apnea.
• How to tell if you're one of the 40-60% of women struggling with menopause-related sleep issues.
• Surprising ways sleep apnea can impact your health - from heart attack to diabetes to cognitive decline.
• How to advocate for yourself and get the help you need from your doctor.
• Simple, effective treatment options for sleep apnea.

Plus, Woganee shares her personal sleep routine and tips for teaching good sleep habits to kids.
