Research suggests: women need more sleep than men

A report by HLN suggests that women may need more sleep than men. The study, the details of which are not known, would have demonstrated this difference in sleep needs.

The reasons for this alleged need for more sleep could lie in biological and social factors. According to HLN, however, no concrete figures or specific research data are available.

Women would reportedly need to sleep slightly longer on average to function optimally. It is unclear whether this study makes specific recommendations about the exact amount of extra sleep.

The report was published by HLN, but does not provide further details about the study or the source.
