Abstract

A vital physiological function, sleep is necessary for general health and wellbeing. It is essential for several body processes, including as metabolism, immunological response, emotional control, and cognitive function. A complicated mechanism involving intricate connections between brain circuits, neurotransmitters, and hormone cues governs the sleep-wake cycle. Scientific research has recently made significant progress in understanding the mechanisms behind the control of the sleep cycle and how it relates to hormone imbalance. The goal of this thorough review is to examine the most recent research in this area, with a particular emphasis on the interaction between hormone variations and sleep regulation.
