The Connection Between Sleep and Hormones

A good night’s sleep is essential for overall health, yet many people—especially women—struggle with insomnia and poor sleep quality. In a recent interview, Dawn Cutillo, founder of BeBalanced and author of The Hormone Shift, explains how stress and hormonal imbalances disrupt sleep patterns. Elevated cortisol levels, caused by stress, deplete progesterone, a hormone essential for relaxation and deep sleep. This imbalance makes it difficult to fall asleep and stay asleep, leading to fatigue, irritability, and weight gain.
