Women Suffer More from Sleep Deprivation

A new Sleep Cycle survey reveals that Mars and Venus have different needs in the bedroom when it comes to getting a good night’s sleep. Women suffer more than men from sleep deprivation. The Sleep Cycle survey also reveals American women getting in more screen time before turning in for the night, while men do more snoring, sleepwalking and sleep eating.

The national survey of 1,004 U.S. adults was conducted online by Propeller Insights on behalf of Sleep Cycle in January 2018.

Women hit harder by sleep deprivation

The vast majority (93 percent) of Americans admit that getting a good night’s sleep affects their day. A full three-quarters (75 percent) feel better, more than half (52 percent) get more done, 39 percent are more patient—especially women (44 percent)—and 39 percent perform better at work. Women especially (40 percent) also feel that they look better after a good night’s sleep.
