CDC report describes sleep duration and sleep quality among U.S. women

A new CDC analysis of data from U.S. non-pregnant women between 40 and 59 years of age shows that perimenopausal women were most likely to sleep less than 7 hours on average in a 24-hour period, compared with premenopausal and postmenopausal women. In contrast, postmenopausal women were most likely to have poor-quality sleep.
