Idiopathic Hypersomnia
Idiopathic Hypersomnia is a sleep disorder characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness despite getting enough sleep at night. Individuals with this condition often struggle to stay awake during the day and may experience long, unrefreshing naps. The exact cause of idiopathic hypersomnia is unknown, which is why it is termed "idiopathic."
Diagnosis typically involves a thorough medical history, sleep studies, and ruling out other sleep disorders like narcolepsy. Treatment options may include medications to help manage symptoms, but there is no one-size-fits-all solution, and ongoing research aims to better understand this condition.
