Since then, micronized progesterone has become available. Micronized progesterone binds to gamma\u2010aminobutyric acid type A receptors and exerts sedative and hypnotic effects. This study evaluated the effects of micronized progesterone on sleep in women receiving estrogen\u2010progestogen therapy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This retrospective study was approved by the institutional review board. Eligible participants were women who switched from synthetic progestins to micronized progesterone between December 2022 and September 2024. Women using sleep medications were excluded. Sleep quality was assessed using the Athens Insomnia Scale before switching, 3\u2009months, and 1\u2009year after initiating micronized progesterone. Progesterone was administered cyclically or continuously. In cyclic users, the Insomnia Severity Index was used to compare sleep during treatment and treatment\u2010free phases.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      A total of 36 participants were included, of whom 22 completed a 1\u2010year follow\u2010up.

At 1\u2009year, no significant changes were observed. Among 11 participants with baseline scores \u2264\u20093, the total Athens Insomnia Scale scores significantly worsened at 3\u2009months and 1\u2009year.
