Waking every night . 3am every morning

What do you do when you wake up? I wake up anywhere from 1 to 4. If I just stay in bed trying to sleep, I'll just toss and turn. I found that if I force myself out of bed, walk around the house, try to use the restroom, get a drink and then go back to bed, I'm out in 1/2 to 1 minute. For me, it resets the sleep cycle. I wake in the morning rested.
 
I have the same issue. You are running out of liver's glycogen overnight and adrenaline kicks in to compensate. My fix was to take 1mg progesterone right before sleep.
I wonder if this happens to me. My overnight fastest BG is higher than if I check it in 1-2 hours of slamming a ton of fast carbs. My A1C has never been above 5.1 and my last 3 were 5.0, 4.8 and 4.9. Yet the longer I wait to check it, the higher it goes after sleeping. I also wake up on fire, which is ridiculous since I hate the cold, and get cold not hot easily.

Had this issue before TRT, it's worse now. In home sleep study in 2019 showed very fragmented sleep, in lab study a year ago showed no N3 sleep at all, zero, just skip from N2 to REM, no sleep apnea

You can try to eat more balanced meal with less carbs , moderate protein, more fat and fiber few hours before sleep. It should stabilize your blood sugar over night. I wake up feeling hot if I eat too much protein and carbs on my last meal. Usually we tolerate high carbs in the morning the best, moderate at lunch and the least at dinner.
 
Hi I want if anybody could point me in the right direction at looking at trying something that may help me.. awake every night / morning 3 a.m... I have followed all the Google advise don't use your phone get the right temperature for the room don't drink coffee alcohol.. I am getting 5 hours if that have broken sleep.. once I wake it can take me an hour or more to get back to sleep then I wake up shattered. I take 150mg a week of testosterone E. Recently had a full blood panel done and thyroid is fine.. any pointers guys??
I'm having the same exact issue-- literally. On 150mg/week and awaken at around 3/4AM daily and feel really tired in the mornings.
 
i have been having frequent awakenings in that time as well in the last 1-2 months or so. my TRT is at 180mg/week which was bumped from 150mg. i am not 100% sure if the bump caused it, but lowering it back to 150 had not much effect, at least within 2 weeks or so.
I would stay away from pharma as the plague as well.
I have been trying many supplements, and most of them loose efficacy after a while unless cycled.
THC is a good sleep inducer but does the opposite for sleep quality. *** works sometimes at high doses (100mg+) for me.
the last thing I have been trying is high dose melantonin, at 50mg or so. that had a positive effect, but there is nothing so far which sticks. some nights are better then others.
I am currently going back into KETO. i was doing well on it in the past and felt and slept much more 'leveled'.
keep trying

This is exactly my story, but this was a situation that I had prior to injecting. Dr had me on 25mg Trazadone until I was up to 150mg and still awake @ 3am. Gummies worked the first night 5mg then nothing and or I woke up high and that was a no starter.
Essentially, I quite Trazadone cold, became uber tight about my sleep hygiene, as much as I hate to admit it sometimes Id drink a beer and usually not even finish it, and felt somewhat "guilty" as i trashed the bottle the next am.

Ran across an article about brain/mind exercises for relaxation for insomnia and it's a work in progress and I am having some success.
 
What's your test and free test at?
Was low . That was 5 weeks ago in 100mg now upped it and sleeping better
