Are there any medications that can help with PCOS-related sleep disorders?

While there are no specific medications designed solely for PCOS-related sleep disorders, certain medications may be helpful depending on the underlying cause:

  • Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP): For sleep apnea, CPAP devices can help keep airways open during sleep.
  • Sedatives: In some cases, mild sedatives may be prescribed to help with insomnia. However, long-term use is generally not recommended.
  • Hormone therapy: For hormonal imbalances related to PCOS, hormone therapy may be helpful.
  • Antidepressants: If depression or anxiety is contributing to sleep problems, antidepressants may be considered.
