Sleep Deficiency in Pregnancy

Sleep is important for overall health of a person. It is always recommended that an adult should sleep for not less than 7 to 9 hours every day. However, there are a lot of adults who experience sleep deprivation, out of them mostly are women. Sleep deprivation can lead to a lot of health issues, including mortality risk, impaired metabolism, imbalance in cognitive function, and the overall quality of life. Women often face more difficulties falling asleep as compared to men, leading to greater levels of self-reported sleep deprivation and problems related to poor sleeping habits.
