Because your hormones are switching roles. Your body reacts by changing cycles periodically and by doing this your body needs to adjust the amount of melatonine in your brain.

Anticipation, its like having to worry about the bills at the end of the month or Sunday night worrying about work the next day. It can be overwhelming especially if we know it is coming and we have to deal with it.

Getting a poor night's sleep means more than just a bad day ahead. The quality of your sleep can harm your health long-term; sleep deprivation is linked to obesity and high blood pressure, poor concentration, and lack of energy for exercising, healthy eating, and leisure activities.

Insomnia is a popular pre-menstrual symptom that affects a lot of women. Usually it is just hormone changes that cause you to feel more alert at night. However, if this is something that is interrupting with your ability to focus during the day, then seeking professional medical advice would be wise.

I think the hormones racing around might keep you up at night. I often have trouble sleep when on my period and feel very upset. A warm bath or shower, coupled with your favorite snack can help you go to sleep.

I have the same problem too. It might be caused by the overflow of hormones and the mood changes. A lot of my friends experience this too.
