Can a person who is having troble sleeping have hormonal problem?

Yes. Hormonal imbalances can disrupt the body’s natural sleep cycle, leading to sleep problems such as difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking up too early. For example, disruptions to the normal rhythms of melatonin, a hormone that regulates sleep, can cause insomnia. Low levels of progesterone particularly in the second half of the menstrual cycle (luteal phase) and before menstruation may lead to poor sleep. Additionally, hypothyroidism, a condition where the thyroid gland doesn’t produce enough thyroid hormone, has also been linked to insufficient and poor quality sleep.
