Postmenopausal women, sleep and stroke

Postmenopausal women who get less than 6 hours sleep or more than 9 hours a day are more likely to develop ischemic stroke than those who sleep for 7 hours. Women who slept more than 9 hours a day were over 70% more likely, and those who slept less than 6 hours were 14% more likely to develop strokes.


Getting less than 6 hours sleep is actually a bigger problem than it seems because overall, postmenopausal women are more likely to have less sleep and poorer quality of sleep.Postmenopausal women, stroke, sleep This is common because of the hormonal changes that are occurring and associated problems like hot flashes and night sweats etc.

Fem Dophilus reviews

  • During sex I had a very strong and embarrassing fishy odor......My first day taking it I saw results. I was impressed, no sticky discharge and no odor! The big test was sex and it passed that test with flying colors....no smell that consumed the entire room. Those pills saved my life lol.
  • I tried this product and followed the advice of other reviewers for tapering down the dosage. It's been three years and I haven't had a recurrence. HIGHLY recommended.
  • I've tried everything (else) for BV over the past 8 years and nothing works. The doctors are clueless... My sex life is better because I don't have to worry about an awful smell afterwards. I take 2 capsules a day faithfully and insert one vaginally every other day. Fem-Dophilus is a miracle in a little capsule!
  • When I think of all the money I have spent over the years on creams, prescriptions, OTC supplements, homeopathic treatments, special diets, etc -- I wish more doctors knew about this product. It would have saved me so much pain and heartache.
