All The Crap I Do To Sleep As A Perimenopausal Woman
Briefly

Unfortunately, night sweats are extremely common for those in the perimenopause or menopause years. So now, I have a whole arsenal of things I try to ensure a good - or at least passable - night's sleep.
Every night, we put on a white noise machine in our bedroom (my son has one in his bedroom, too). I'm not sure when I started using a white noise machine - maybe when I lived on a noisy street in the city that used to have buses going by at all hours and bargoers making a ruckus at closing time...
I can't sleep if there is a hint of light, so I will sometimes wear an eye mask to block out any light. This is mandatory if I'm sleeping somewhere else...
If you have a partner who snores, earplugs are a must. I'm not saying my partner snores, this is hypothetical. I wear earplugs to block out extraneous noises, I'm not saying what they are or who or where they're coming from.
