Adolescence is a critical developmental stage marked by significant physical, psychological, and social changes. Among these changes, sleep patterns undergo notable shifts, often resulting in sleep deprivation and irregular sleep cycles. This paper explores the relationship between hormonal changes and adolescent sleep patterns, focusing on the biological and environmental factors that contribute to sleep disruptions. We also examine the role of lifestyle choices, such as academic pressures, screen time, and social activities, in shaping adolescents’ sleep behavior. By understanding these factors, this study aims to highlight the importance of promoting healthy sleep habits during adolescence to support overall well-being and cognitive development.
