Sleeping in separate beds as a couple... what if it were the secret to better sleep after 50? If this idea seems surprising to you, know that it's attracting more and more mature couples. Fatigue, snoring, hormonal changes... at this age, sleep often becomes more fragile. As a result, many couples choose, without taboo, to spend their nights separately. So, is it a good idea or a bad one? We explain everything.

Why is this trend attracting more and more couples?

From the age of 50, the body changes, and so does sleep. Menopause, andropause, joint pain, circadian rhythm disorders... it becomes more difficult to get deep, restorative sleep. And sometimes, sharing a bed doesn't help!

A partner who tosses and turns, snores, or wakes up frequently can disrupt the other's sleep. For many, sleeping separately helps restore peaceful rest... and maintain harmony as a couple.
