It’s exactly what happens from peri onwards, some nights are better. I’m pretty sure that’s why the term Nanna nap came about.

Ah, yes. Sleep issues, for years. But John R Lee's book 'What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Menopause' helped. Still relevant. Says that testing for progestrone is not standard. Estrogens only.
