Relationship between Menstrual Cycle Regularity and Sleep Quality
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
Women report more sleep disturbance than men which suggests sleep may be correlated with reproductive function in women. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between menstrual cycle regularity and quality of sleep. A total of 113 subjects of age 18 to 21 years participated in the study. After getting consent they were given a Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire. Quality of sleep was assessed by measuring seven domains. Scoring of the answers is based on a 0 to 3 scale. Sleep quality was found to be good with a higher percentage of 62.31 in subjects with regular menstrual cycle; whereas subjects with irregular menstrual cycle have only 38.63 percentages. Our study results show the inverse relationship existing between menstrual irregularity and sleep quality
