Before your period, during, and right afterwards, your hormones are doing somersaults practically. These can change your brain's activity, causing you to have trouble sleeping.

According to WebMD, day one of menstruation to ovulation (follicular stage) estrogen builds up until ovulation, causing increase in energy and sleep disturbances.

Changes in your hormones can cause flushing of the face and hot flashes. Also a low grade fever is common during this time and can cause some myalgia.

Because when you are on your period you are in pain and clammy and it's distracting. Normally laying on my front helps.

The most likely reason for sleep troubles before menstruation is the amount of hormones being processed in the body. The process can sometimes make for more active brain activity at times when the brain is supposed to slow, and also produces energy which can appear at odd times.

Hormones can cause a number of symptoms to occur, as a part of PMS hormones may cause temporary insomnia. Stress is often a culprit and with some aromatherapy can help ease you into a restful nights sleep!
