Whether you&#8217;re the one tired and suffering with a sore throat come morning, or the one kept up all night by your snoring partner, snoring does no good for anyone involved. And with 45% of adults snoring at least occasionally, it&#8217;s absolutely a problem that needs to be tackled. Leave the old wives&#8217; tales to one side and join Dr. Pixie Mckenna as she goes through the ins and outs of snoring with her expert panel.<\/p>\n<p>Pixie chats the causes of snoring and prevention techniques with Mike Dilkes, a leading ENT laser surgeon. Also on the guest panel, are Sophie and Dorian Trott, a couple who know all there is to know about the trials and tribulations of snoring. Ever since pregnancy, Sophie has been a snorer. Dorian, on the other hand, has been tired. They add to the conversation with their experiences of snoring, techniques they&#8217;ve tried, and whether their next step is to consider surgery.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Watch this on YouTube<\/h2>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How can I stop snoring? | Episode 12 | Sleep Matters from Dreams podcast\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wPzpuId8qDI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>What\u2019s covered in this episode?<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div class=\"ewa-rteLine\">Techniques to help reduce snoring<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>Facial exercises to help prevent snoring<\/li>\n<li>\n<div class=\"ewa-rteLine\">More serious, medical steps you can take to combat snoring<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div class=\"ewa-rteLine\">Most common causes of snoring<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div class=\"ewa-rteLine\">Hormones and snoring &#8211; how pregnancy can trigger snoring<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div class=\"ewa-rteLine\">How it&#8217;s now widely accepted that women snore as much as men<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>What it&#8217;s like to share a bed with a snorer<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Related articles you may find useful:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dreams.co.uk\/sleep-matters-club\/stop-partner-snoring-infographic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">What Causes Snoring?
