Sleep Disturbances _ AAI Rejuvenation Clinic _ Health Education

Sleep disturbance affects every facet of our existence. Many sleep-related problems can be overcome with testosterone therapy. Men with lower testosterone levels have reduced sleep efficiency, with increased nocturnal awakenings and less slow-wave (REM) sleep. Studies have shown that sleep disturbance caused by sleep apnea, a chronic breathing problem, may be linked to low testosterone levels.

In a 2011 study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), ten men volunteered to have their testosterone levels checked during eight nights of sleep restriction. They were only allowed 5 hours of sleep per night. The study found their daytime testosterone levels were decreased by 10–15% compared with the levels before their sleep restriction. Testosterone levels were lowest in the afternoon and evening. The study also found a progressive loss of energy over the week.

Thus, a direct correlation exists between testosterone levels and sleep quantity and quality. Here at AAI Rejuvenation Clinic, we’re waiting to help you. Our services are discrete and confidential.

Hormones can play a significant role in regulating sleep, and imbalances in hormone levels can contribute to sleep disturbances. Some hormones that are particularly important for rest include:

Melatonin: Melatonin is a hormone produced by the brain’s pineal gland, and it plays a critical role in regulating the sleep-wake cycle. Melatonin typically rises in the evening, promoting sleep, and falls in the morning, promoting wakefulness.

Cortisol: Cortisol is a hormone primarily produced in the adrenal glands and plays a critical role in the body’s stress response. Cortisol levels typically follow a diurnal pattern, peaking in the morning and declining throughout the day. Imbalances in cortisol levels can contribute to difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep.

Growth hormone: Growth hormone is primarily produced by the pituitary gland and plays a critical role in regulating metabolism and promoting tissue repair and regeneration. Growth hormone levels typically peak during deep sleep, and imbalances in growth hormone levels can contribute to difficulty achieving deep, restful sleep.

Thyroid hormones: Thyroid hormones play a critical role in regulating metabolism and energy production, and imbalances in thyroid hormone levels can contribute to difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep.
