Sleep
problems
like
insomnia
can
be
caused
by
many
different
factors,
including
chronic
pain,
acid
reflux,
and
depression.
But
did
you
know
that
your
issue
could
also
be
triggered
by
a
small
gland
called
the
thyroid?
The
thyroid
is
responsible
for
regulating
an
important
hormone
that
keeps
your
body
warm
and
help
organs
function
properly.
If
your
thyroid
isn’t
working
correctly,
it
can
cause
a
lot
of
problems,
including
getting
in
the
way
of
your
sleep.
There
are
two
types
of
thyroid
conditions:
overactive
or
underactive.
How the gland impacts your sleep depends on which condition you have.
Hyperthyroidism
When
your
gland
produces
too
much
thyroid
hormone,
this
is
known
as
hyperthyroidism.
The
condition
causes
different
bodily
functions
to
speed
up,
leading
you
to
feel
wired
and
jittery.
Symptoms
may
also
include
feeling
anxious
and
experiencing
a
racing
pulse,
making
it
hard
to
get
into
a
relaxed
state.
As
a
result,
people
who
have
hyperthyroidism
may
have
trouble
sleeping.
When
the
condition
first
occurs,
it
might
not
seem
like
a
problem
since
an
overactive
thyroid
makes
it
seem
as
though
you
have
endless
energy,
thanks
to
a
revving
metabolism.
That
sensation
is
short-lived,
however,
and
as
time goes on, you’ll start to feel really tired.
When
the
thyroid
gland
is
underactive
and
not
producing
enough
thyroid
hormone,
this
is
known
as
hypothyroidism.
The
lack
of
this
important
hormone
causes
processes
throughout
the
body
to
slow
down,
making
you
feel
tired
more
easily.
For
people
with
this
condition,
even
a
solid
seven
to
nine
hours
of
sleep
at
night
doesn’t
shake
the
constant
sense
of
exhaustion.
Some
sufferers
also
report
feeling
like
they
are
stuck
in
a
fog
or
haze,
without
the ability to think sharply.
The
good
news
is
that
for
many
people
with
a
thyroid
disorder,
medication
can
help
reduce
negative
symptoms
and
improve
sleep
issues.
See
your
doctor
if
you’re
concerned:
A
simple
blood
test
can
determine
if
you
have
the
appropriate levels of thyroid hormones in your body.
IS YOUR THYROID TO BLAME FOR
YOUR SLEEP ISSUES?
