Ovulation and Insomnia
Ovulation and insomnia often coincide, especially for women sensitive to hormonal changes mid-cycle. This sleep disruption may be caused by fluctuating estrogen and progesterone levels that alter brain chemistry and body temperature.
In TCM, ovulation-related insomnia is often linked to Liver Qi stagnation or Heart Yin deficiency. Phases Wellness addresses this with customized acupuncture protocols and herbal formulas designed to regulate hormonal rhythms.
Natural remedies—like mugwort tea or calming essential oils—can help during the ovulatory phase. Gentle yoga, stretching, and breath-focused meditation are also useful tools to ground the body and mind.
Nutrition can ease symptoms: dark leafy greens, flaxseed, and B6-rich foods support hormonal balance and better sleep.
Working with a qualified practitioner ensures your ovulation and insomnia concerns are treated at the root, offering a natural and long-term solution without the use of medications.
