Sleep & Stress
Why can’t I sleep?
Trouble sleeping and trouble winding down have a lot of possible causes. A provider can help you figure out which one is yours.
Start with a consult. You don’t need a diagnosis to book one.
Where sleep and stress problems actually come from
Most people try to fix this on their own first. Earlier bedtime, less caffeine, a new app. Sometimes that works. Sometimes sleep is being affected by something else, and a provider can find it.
Hormones
Hormone changes can affect sleep in both men and women. Your provider will look at your symptoms and labs together when recommending treatment.
Tired but wired
Lying awake with your mind running is a common reason people can’t fall asleep. Ongoing stress affects sleep, appetite, and how you feel during the day.
Sleep quality
You can be in bed eight hours and still wake up unrested. Disrupted sleep can go on for months before anyone looks at it.
Weight and medication
Sleep sometimes changes when your weight or your medication changes. Your provider can look at it alongside everything else.
One care team, looking at all of it
Your history, your labs, and your treatment, all in one place.

“Sleep and stress aren’t lifestyle extras. They’re two of the strongest signals your body receives. When they’re off, hunger goes up, fullness goes down, and weight loss gets harder even when you’re working hard. So we treat them as part of your medical care.”
