Sleep Disturbances in Menopause is a Continuing Professional Development (CPD) course designed to provide healthcare professionals with comprehensive knowledge regarding the causes, assessment, and management of sleep problems experienced during the menopausal transition. The course explores the physiological, hormonal, psychological, and lifestyle-related factors that contribute to sleep disturbances in peri-menopausal and postmenopausal women. Menopause is commonly associated with sleep disruption, which may significantly affect physical health, emotional wellbeing, cognitive function, work productivity, and overall quality of life. Symptoms such as night sweats, insomnia, mood disturbances, anxiety, and fatigue frequently contribute to poor sleep during this stage of life.
