The relationship between sleep and fertility isn’t something that’s talked about very much. I’m excited to have sleep expert, Dr. Sara Nowakowski, joining me today.

We all know sleep is important, but did you know that sleep helps you recover from illness and rebound from life challenges? It also helps with mood regulation and decreases depression and anxiety, and it has been shown to help memory consolidation.

Plus, there is scientific evidence to show that sleep impacts hormones, has varying effects during the different phases of a woman’s reproductive life (when trying to conceive, during pregnancy, and during perimenopause and menopause). Sara is sharing some of the findings about this, along with some tips on improving sleeping habits.

Sara Nowakowski, PhD, is an Associate Professor at Baylor College of Medicine and treats patients with insomnia and other sleep disorders at the Baylor Sleep Medicine Clinic. She is also a Research Health Scientist at the Houston VA, where she conducts research on sleep and women’s health.

Thank you for joining me, Sara!
