Hi frinds. i am not sure if this is an embarrass question. But i do, i do snore when i asleep, and i felt so embarrass when i first know that i snore. I was like OMG, i am a girl, how can i snore?! But the true is that i do. I've been so afaird to sleep with someone else, or my female frined or my boyfriend, i am just felt so embarrass that i snore at night.
Is there anyone have the same feeling like i do? Do you have any good suggestion to cure this problems? I mean is there any medicine or medical treaments that can help?Thanks for sharing your experience with us.

I have been told I snore occasionally but not all night like some people. When I sleep I tend to be oblivious to everything once I am asleep, but if there is noise when I am falling asleep I cannot sleep and will be away all night.
People should be aware that snorers are susceptible to sleep apnea. If you notice they are interrupting their snoring with periods of not breathing they need to get to a doctor right away as this condition can be dangerous, apart from not allowing someone a good night's sleep.

Hi Mariposaman,
Thanks for responding my discussion. You are right! I als read from some newspaper, it say that snorers have higher rate of being sleep apnea than those who don't snore. I was scared when i read that article. I am so afraid that i will die somedate while i am asleep.

No, you do not suffocate in your sleep when you stop breathing. If you die of sleep apnea it is because you are in a car accident because you fell asleep at the wheel because you were so tired, or you get a heart attack. Apparently it stresses your heart, (plus I would imagine it would make you cranky).

Hi Fwabgaa,
Thanks for responding my discussions. So, do you think snore really have to do with weight? I think i am not fat, i am 53KG, and i am 160cm. But i still snore, i snore badly when i was very tired.

I don't snore and I am glad that I don't neither my bf. My aunt from my father's side snores like an old train passing. She really snores so loud. No wonder her husband left her because of it. Snoring occurs when the body can't get enough oxygen while sleeping thats why it happens. There are some treatments available for it but I am not sure if it really works. Other causes of snoring are:

Yes. My baby told me so...actually, there was somebody who asked her, "How does one sleep?" And she replied by making the snoring sound. Who else would she hear that from but me. Her Papa has been out of the country most of the time and she only shares her bed with me. =)

Hi Gvaisakh,
Thanks for your kind advice. I know many people snore, but i also heard some people say that snore will affect your health, you might stop breathing when you are alseep if you snores. That sounds scarely to me.

It was hard to believe when my brother told me that I snore, I could not belive it! Me? Snore? Unlikely! But true. I also avoid sleeping around other people.

Hi ColinYang,
Thanks for responding my discussion. Have you ever heard yourself snore? I think i try to notice that after i know i snore from my sister. At first, i can't believe it! My sister was about to use a recorder to record my snore, then i believen her. Since then, i subconsciousness tried to listen to my snore, i did found out 2-3 times that i snore. That's embarrassing!

I don't snore when I am sleeping. However, my husband snores loudly. So when we just got married, I didn't get used to it. Now I can't fall asleep without his snores. What a strange change:) It seems there is a very small plastic tool which can help to avoid the snores. But I haven't tried to buy it for my husband.
I love China

Hi Lingzi,
Thanks for your kindly advice. I snore loudly when i feel very tired. I never comes to a doctor for this problem, because my dad snores too, i think i might get this inheritance.

Hi Makeupartisteileen,
Although i snore as well, but i understand how that feel when you did not get enough sleep. i think it's very improtant for women to get enough sleep. I will easy to get angry and can not handle my work properly.
