A study has shown that pain and hot flashes symptoms should be treated so that one could sleep fine at night. They have been ascertained to be making older women to lose night’s sleep.

Howard M Kravitz, a Professor of Psychiatry at the Rush University Medical Center based in Chicago, who is also the study researcher expressed that there is more than one single thing that contributes to lack of sleep in middle-aged females as well as those who might be in Menopause. He said that pain and menopause symptoms were acting in the same level and should not be ignored.

The new study findings will have some of its findings being presented in the Chicago annual meeting at the North American Menopause Society.

The study has 314 females completing sleep diaries and wearing wristwatch for the detection of nighttime motion. Symptoms of menopause played a major role in causing difficulty in sleep, although pain was seen as being an effect entirely independent on remaining awake as well as efficiency in terms of sleep or even the time that is spent once one is fast asleep as the study depicts.
