Insomnia disorder disproportionately affects women compared to men. Reproductive transitions (menstrual, pregnancy, menopause) are thought to precipitate sleep continuity disturbance, hence heightening women’s risk for sleep problems throughout their lifespan.

Treatment for sleep disorders may serve to increase the potential for natural conception, response to fertility treatment, and/or successful carriage to term.
