This document discusses how hormones regulate the sleep-wake cycle. It identifies several hormones involved, including melatonin, cortisol, testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, and insulin. It explains how each hormone influences sleep patterns, stress levels, appetite, immune function, and dreaming. The document also discusses neurotransmitters like acetylcholine and dopamine and their effects on sleep, memory, and disorders. Finally, it provides tips to optimize sleep by reducing stress, screens before bed, watching eating times, and setting a routine.
This document discusses the importance of sleep for health. It describes the five stages of sleep, including rapid eye movement (REM) sleep and non-REM sleep. Insufficient sleep can increase risks for various diseases like obesity, diabetes, and heart disease due to changes in hormones like ghrelin and leptin. Getting 7-9 hours of sleep per night is recommended to maintain good health and reduce risks.
The document discusses the importance of sleep and outlines several key points:
- Sleep is regulated by circadian rhythms influenced by light and melatonin levels, and disruptions to these rhythms can negatively impact sleep.
- College students often do not get the recommended 8-9 hours of sleep per night, leading to poorer academic performance and health issues.
- Establishing a regular sleep schedule and relaxing pre-sleep routine can help improve sleep quality.
- Activities like exercise, caffeine, and screen time close to bedtime should be limited to promote better sleep.

This document discusses the connection between hormones and sleep quality. An estimated 60 million Americans suffer from insomnia due to disturbances in their circadian rhythms and melatonin and cortisol levels. Melatonin is the master sleep hormone that should be high at night when cortisol is low, but many factors like stress, aging, menopause and shift work disrupt these natural rhythms. Short and long term effects of sleep deprivation include fatigue, mood issues, weight gain, disease susceptibility and premature aging. The document recommends getting proper light exposure, exercise, nutrition, sleep environment and considering natural supplements or hormone testing to support better sleep balance.
This document discusses the relationship between sleep, hormones, and health. It states that hormone imbalances can cause insomnia, and lack of sleep can worsen hormone imbalances. It also lists other causes of insomnia like stress, night sweats, adrenal fatigue, anxiety, and diet. The document explains that sleep is needed for the body's hormones to function properly and that lack of sleep can increase risks of diseases. It provides tips for developing healthy sleep habits and lists natural supplements that may help promote better sleep.
This document discusses circadian rhythms and how they affect the human body. It covers several key points:
1. Circadian rhythms are natural 24-hour cycles that regulate physiological and behavioral changes in the body, including the sleep-wake cycle which is entrained to light and darkness.
2. Hormones like melatonin, serotonin, growth hormone, cortisol, insulin, leptin and ghrelin are involved in circadian rhythms and play roles in sleep, metabolism, stress response and appetite regulation.
3. Disrupting circadian rhythms through things like poor sleep, light exposure at night, or irregular eating and activity patterns can impact health by interfering with the normal fluctuations of
It is easy to overlook the importance of sleep. Most think it is a metabolically idle time however, researchers now show that sleep is FAR from idle. Particularly when it comes to HGH human growth hormone production.
Sleep progresses through distinct stages in a cycle. Non-REM sleep begins with light sleep in stages 1 and 2, characterized by theta waves and sleep spindles. Stages 3 and 4 involve deep sleep with synchronized brain activity appearing as delta waves. REM sleep involves dreaming and similar brain activity to wakefulness. The circadian rhythm and homeostatic processes regulate sleep cycles, with the circadian rhythm promoting wakefulness opposed by the increasing homeostatic drive for sleep with time spent awake.
Sleep is a naturally recurring state that involves altered consciousness, inhibited sensory activity, and reduced muscle activity. It is important for healing, repairing the body, and improving concentration. There are four stages of sleep: three non-REM stages and one REM stage. The hypothalamus influences sleep cycles by regulating the release of melatonin in response to light, which makes people feel sleepy. Factors like age, recent sleep patterns, and sleep disorders can affect normal sleep stage progression.

This document summarizes various topics related to states of consciousness and how consciousness can be altered. It discusses biological rhythms like circadian rhythms which are controlled by the body's internal clock. It also examines sleep cycles and disorders, exploring topics like insomnia, sleep apnea, parasomnias and more. The document then analyzes methods of altering consciousness through different drug categories like depressants, stimulants, opiates, hallucinogens and more, providing details on substances like alcohol, cocaine, marijuana and their effects.
Sleep is a state of sustained immobility, reduced responsiveness, and characteristic posture that allows the body to rest and repair itself. It is essential for humans and most animals. Lack of sufficient sleep can impair functions like alertness, learning, mood, energy levels, and coordination. Brain waves change during sleep cycles from beta/alpha when awake to theta/delta when asleep. Sleep consists of REM and non-REM sleep, with dreaming occurring in REM sleep. Establishing good sleep habits and avoiding stimulants before bed can help improve sleep quality and duration.
Sleep is essential for normal functioning and survival. It helps the body and brain restore and repair. There are different sleep stages that provide different benefits. Most adults need 7-9 hours of sleep per night, though individual needs vary. Lack of sufficient sleep can seriously impair performance and health, increasing risks of accidents, illness, and mental health issues.
This document provides a 7-step guide to getting a good night's sleep. It discusses the importance of sleep for health, common sleep problems, and explains sleep cycles and what controls sleep. The 7 steps include: 1) creating the right bedroom environment with darkness and cool temperatures; 2) managing lifestyle factors; 3) reducing stress and worry; 4) considering diet, supplements and hormones; 5) exercising; 6) relaxation techniques; and 7) balancing hormones. Each step provides detailed explanations and tips for improving sleep quality and duration.
Rest involves periods of inactivity to relax the body and mind, while sleep shuts down the body to repair itself. Getting enough good quality rest and sleep is important for stress reduction and health. Common sleep disorders include insomnia, sleep apnea, restless legs syndrome, and narcolepsy, which can be diagnosed and treated at a sleep clinic using monitoring devices during sleep tests. Maintaining good sleep hygiene with regular sleep schedules, exercise, and limiting caffeine can also help promote better sleep.
The document discusses biorhythms and how the body's physical and mental states cycle throughout the day in regular patterns. It notes that biorhythms affect individuals from birth throughout life. The three main biorhythmic cycles are physical, emotional, and intellectual. Good sleep is important for regeneration and recovery, and different people have different natural sleep patterns as either "larks" or "owls". The biological clock controls daily cycles in organ function and energy levels throughout the day and night.
The document discusses potential side effects of several common sleep medications, including NyQuil, Sonata, Lunesta, Ambien, Rozerem, and Doxylamine. It notes that sleep medications can cause drowsiness, dizziness, headaches, nausea, dry mouth and other issues. More serious potential side effects include hallucinations, confusion, falls, dependence and withdrawal symptoms. The document warns that overdosing on acetaminophen (found in some medications) can cause liver damage or failure. It emphasizes the importance of only taking sleep medications as prescribed and contacting a doctor immediately if any severe side effects occur.
This document discusses sleep and rest patterns. It defines sleep and rest, compares their characteristics, and identifies the stages of non-REM and REM sleep. The document outlines functions of sleep, factors that affect sleep, and common sleep disorders. It also discusses conditions necessary to promote sleep and the nursing process for patients.
People need between 7 to 9 hours of sleep per night. Sleep serves important restorative functions such as rebuilding proteins, replenishing energy supplies, and facilitating learning and memory consolidation. Damage to the suprachiasmatic nucleus disrupts circadian rhythms. The suprachiasmatic nucleus regulates the pineal gland which secretes melatonin, increasing sleepiness. There are various stages of sleep including REM and non-REM sleep. Brain mechanisms such as the reticular formation, locus coeruleus, and basal forebrain regulate arousal and sleep cycles.
The document discusses the importance of sleep through a rat study and explanations of sleep cycles and brain waves. In the rat study, rats that were deprived of sleep for 5 days started dying faster than if they were starved and developed sores all over their body as their immune systems stopped functioning. The document also summarizes that sleep is important for replenishing energy to cells, balancing cortisol, repairing damage from toxins, allowing memories to form and brain connections to develop, and for neurotransmitters to reload and clear from the brain.
This document provides information on the importance of sleep, how much sleep is needed, and tips for getting better sleep. It states that sleep is essential for health, mood, immune function and cognitive performance. Most adults need 7-9 hours per night, though individual needs vary. Not getting enough sleep can impair memory, concentration, immune function and mental health. It describes the sleep cycle and benefits of different sleep stages. Tips are provided for establishing a regular sleep schedule and relaxing before bed to promote better quality sleep.
The document discusses the importance of sleep through a rat study and explanations of sleep cycles and brain waves. The rat study found that after 5 days without sleep, the rats started dying faster than if they were starved and suffered metabolic harm and immune system failure. The document also explains that sleep cycles repeat throughout the night, with REM sleep increasing each cycle. REM sleep is important for memory formation and neural development. Polysomnography measures brain waves, muscle tension, eye movement, heart rate, breathing, and temperature to study sleep cycles and what happens in the brain and body during sleep. The document recommends establishing a sleep schedule and relaxing before bed for healthy sleep habits.
Sleep is an essential activity that is important for physical and mental health. Not getting enough sleep can accumulate into a "sleep debt" that has negative health consequences. Maintaining a regular sleep schedule and getting 7-9 hours of sleep per night can help avoid sleep debt and its effects, which include impaired focus, mood issues, and increased disease risk. Paying back sleep debt requires getting more sleep than usual, such as going to bed earlier, rather than sleeping longer all at once.
The pineal and thymus glands are endocrine glands that play important roles in regulating circadian rhythms and the immune system. The pineal gland produces melatonin which regulates sleep cycles and inhibits sexual development before puberty. The thymus gland produces T cells which help the immune system fight infections, and its production of hormones is important for immune system maturation. Diseases can arise if these glands are dysfunctional, disrupted, or damaged, leading to issues like sleep disorders, early puberty, immunodeficiency, or autoimmune disease.
The document discusses seniors' sleep needs and practices for improving sleep quality. It states that seniors aged 65 and older need 7-8 hours of sleep per night. Poor sleep quality can negatively impact physical and mental health. Common causes of poor sleep in seniors include sleep disorders, an irregular sleep schedule, caffeine, alcohol, and certain medications. The document provides tips for seniors to improve their sleep quality, such as maintaining a regular bedtime, exercising, keeping the bedroom dark and quiet, reducing caffeine and alcohol, and practicing relaxing activities like yoga before bed.
This document discusses symptoms of a hormone imbalance, which can include weight changes, mood swings, brain fog, irregular periods, sleep problems, chronic acne, memory issues, belly problems, ongoing fatigue, mood swings, appetite/weight changes, headaches, loss of libido, breast changes, and vaginal dryness. Hormone imbalances can be caused by life changes like menopause, medications, or health conditions. Seeing a doctor can help identify if hormone levels are off and determine the best treatment.

Topic:
Role of Hormones in regulation of Sleep and Wake Cycle
3. Endocrine system
Glands and parts of glands that produce endocrine
secretions, help to integrate and control bodily
metabolic activity, and include especially the
pituitary, thyroid, parathyroids, adrenals, islets of
Langerhans, ovaries, and testes.
4. Hormones
Hormones are chemical messengers released from
endocrine glands that travel through the blood
system to influence the nervous system to regulate
many of the body’s processes including growth,
development, reproduction, metabolism and
energy balance.
5. Sleep and wake cycle
The sleep/wake cycle is a daily pattern that determines
when it's time to sleep and when it's time to be awake.
For most humans, the ideal cycle includes seven to nine
hours of sleep (typically at night) followed by 15 to 17
hours of wakefulness.
6. Hormones involved in sleep and wake
cycle
Not only do your hormones affect your mood,
metabolic functions, and more, they also play a huge
role in the amount of sleep you manage to get each
night.
The hormones involved in sleep and wake cycle are:
1. Oestrogen
2. Progesterone
3. Testosterone
4. Insulin
5. Cortisol
6. Melatonin
7. Hormones affect sleep through our
stress levels
Some hormones, such Adrenaline , make us feel more alert and
prepared for action. This then makes it hard for us to go to sleep. To
prevent this effect it’s best to do relaxing activities before bedtime.
When stress is long lasting, Adrenocorticotrophic Hormone within
the pituitary gland (attached to the base of the brain) triggers the
release of Cortisone and Cortisol from the adrenal glands.
Levels of adrenocorticotrophic hormone tend be higher in people with
Insomnia than in good sleepers.
Elite Athletes can have difficulty getting to sleep because they tend to
have high levels of cortisol throughout the day,
8. Hormones released during sleep boost
our immune system and make us
hungry
Sleep is a time when several of the body’s hormones are released into the
bloodstream. These include growth hormone, which is essential for growth
and tissue repair, including in adults.
Sleep helps to balance our appetite by maintaining optimal levels of the
hormones Ghrenal and Leptin. So, when we get less sleep than normal
we may feel an urge to eat more.
If we get less sleep than normal our levels of Prolactin may get out of
balance and we can end up with a weakened immune system.
9. Insulin - This hormone controls your blood glucose levels.
Sleep deprivation can raise your blood sugar level and
encourage unhealthy late-night eating habits. This, in turn,
triggers an insulin release, causing blood glucose levels to
fluctuate throughout the night. When the level of blood
glucose is higher, there is a greater chance that your night’s
sleep will be a lot more restless than normal.
10.
11.
12. Hormones make us feel sleepy at night
Hormone levels also influence the timing of when we
feel sleepy and awake – our body clock or sleep-
wake cycle.
The hormone melatonin is released
with darkness and tells our body it’s time to sleep. This
is why being around too much bright light before bed
can affect our sleep as it can stop the release of
melatonin.
13. Hormones give us a wake-up call in the
morning
Levels of the hormone Cortisol dip at bedtime and increase
during the night, peaking just before waking. This acts like
a wake-up signal, turning on our appetite and energy.
When we travel long distances our body’s sleep-wake cycle
takes a while to adjust. So increased cortisol levels and
hunger may occur at inappropriate times of the day
14. For men, testosterone levels affect sleep
For men, levels of testosterone are highest during sleep and
don’t fluctuate in the same sporadic way as oestrogen or
progesterone. Instead, testosterone levels often decline
gradually over a longer period of time, meaning there are
much lower concentrations in older people. These lower
levels are often linked to a poorer quality of sleep and can
even lead to insomnia, ageing and physical problems.
15. For women, changes in hormones affect
sleep
The loss of oestrogen causes body fat to move more to the
stomach area, which increases the chances of women having
snoring and sleep apnoea.
Changes in hormone levels also contribute to sleeping
difficulties during pregnancy. Increased progesterone levels
can cause daytime sleepiness, particularly in the first
trimester. High levels of oestrogen and progesterone during
pregnancy can also cause nasal swelling and lead to snoring.
16. Progesterone is one of the most linked hormones to sleep quality. At
higher concentrations, progesterone provides an anti-anxiety effect,
enabling you to fall asleep more quickly. However, at lower
concentrations, mood swings and cramping are two commonly
encountered symptoms.
17. Hormones influence our dreams
Finally, as we sleep, our hormones, including levels of
oxytocin and cortisol, may influence the content of our
dreams.
By doing things to promote good sleep, such as reducing
stress, engaging in relaxing evening routines before bed,
going to bed and getting up at regular times, or seeking
professional help for sleeping difficulties, we can facilitate the
replenishing activities of our hormones that help us make the
most of our day and optimise our well-being.
18. Neurotransmitters and your sleep
Some neurotransmitters help your body recharge while you sleep. They
can even help you to remember things that you learned, heard, or saw
while you were awake.
The neurotransmitter acetylcholine is at its strongest both during REM
(rapid eye movement) sleep and while you are awake. It seems to help
your brain keep information gathered while you are awake. It then sets
that information as you sleep. So if you study or learn new information in
the hours before bed, "sleeping on it" can help you remember it.
Other neurotransmitters may work against you as you sleep. Abnormalities
with the neurotransmitter dopamine may trigger sleep disorders such as
restless legs syndrome.
19. Reduce using screens before bed.
Watching the TV or using your phone before bed
can suppress your melatonin level, which can
significantly affect your ability to fall asleep. Instead,
try reading a book or playing music.
20. Destress
It may sound fairly obvious but doing things to
destress yourself before bed can make a big
difference to your quality of sleep. Whether it be
meditation, ASMR, yoga, massage, sport, candles,
lavender oils, or knitting – whatever makes you feel
nice and relaxed, make the most of it and you’ll be
asleep in no time
21. Watch when you eat.
Eating before bed isn’t a good idea, since it raises
both your insulin and cortisol level. If you do eat
before bed and manage to get to sleep, deep REM
sleep will be more difficult to come by, and the quality
and duration of your sleep will suffer.
22. Set a routine.
Try to always fall asleep and wake up at the same time each
day.
Even losing just 1 hour of sleep over a few days can have an
effect. It can lead to a decrease in performance, mood, and
thinking. Getting regular, adequate amounts of sleep is
important. It can help you feel awake and refreshed during the
day. It can also help you feel relaxed and sleepy at night. This
helps make you ready for a long, restful night of sleep.
