Abstract in brief

  • This meta-analysis examined gender differences in insomnia prevalence, finding that women are significantly more likely to experience insomnia than men, with about 22% of the population affected overall.
  • The study analyzed 13 research articles and showed that the higher prevalence in females was consistent across various study methods, with females having roughly 1.58 times higher odds of insomnia.
  • Results suggest that factors like study design, sampling methods, and higher proportions of females contribute to the observed gender differences, highlighting the need for targeted screening and interventions, especially for women.]
