Hay fever is a reaction of your body to pollen that comes loose from some grasses, plants and trees that are in bloom. The pollen causes allergic symptoms such as sneezing, itchy and tearing eyes, and a clogged nose. But why do you feel so tired when you have hay fever, and why don't you sleep well? Here's why, and some tips to get better sleep:
Why are you so tired when you have hay fever?
- Sleep disturbance: The symptoms of hay fever, such as a clogged nose and itchy eyes, can disturb your sleep and lead to sleep deprivation.
- Immune system in action: Your body reacts to the pollen as if it were a threat, resulting in an active immune system that consumes a lot of energy and causes fatigue.
Bad sleep due to hay fever
