This can be due to large tonsils, a soft palate, a long uvula or excessive flabby tissue at the throat. All of these areas relax during sleep. In other cases, nasal congestion from allergies or deformities of the cartilage between the two sides of the nose can contribute to narrowing of the airway. Common causes of snoring Supine body position (lying face up) Large tonsils, long soft palate or uvula A tongue that relaxes too much during sleep Being overweight Nasal congestion from colds, allergies or deformities of cartilage within the nose Menopause Consuming alcohol, medication or tobacco products within six hours of going to sleep Hypothyroidism Who snores? More than 60 percent of the adult population suffers from problem snoring. This percentage increases each year in people aged 50 and older, as tissues in the upper airway lose elasticity and tend to vibrate more during breathing, increasing the incidence of snoring. 1 When the airway is reduced during sleep, the tongue is more easily sucked into the back of the throat and obstructs the airway. Sixty percent of men and 40 percent of women over the age of 40 are habitual snorers. Snoring is common in children between the age of 2 to 7, particularly if they have a chest infection or enlarged tonsils. Snoring is also commonly experienced by women during the later stages of pregnancy.
