Women in women meet about twice as rare than men, and the reason may be feminine sex hormones. This was announced by Otorhinolaryngologist, surgeon and somnologist Ryan Chinese To Chong in an interview with The Guardian.
According to him, the exact mechanism of this difference is not yet known, but the most probable explanation is the impact of estrogen and progesterone hormones. These hormones are believed to help maintain the tone of the tract muscles and reduce the likelihood of weakening during their sleep. During menopause, when the level of hormones falls sharply, the frequency of the rumbles in women and men is almost equal.
The doctor also noted that excess weight raises the risk of snoring, regardless of gender. For example, women in the late phases of pregnancy are found in the same frequency as men.
According to the specialist, the snoring of the respiratory muscles weaken, as a result of which the air flow is hampered and there are vibrations in the nose, soft palate, throat or language. Other possible reasons include allergies, the presence of polyps in the nose, the nose partition and colds.
