Why Am I Still Snoring While Using Intake?Updated 5 hours ago
Snoring can have several causes. While Intake helps open your nasal passages for better airflow, it may not eliminate snoring entirely, especially if it's caused by something other than nasal restriction.
Tips to Help Reduce Snoring
- Give It Some Time: Try using Intake consistently for several nights as you adjust to nasal breathing.
- Check Your Fit: Make sure your Band is comfortably opening your nostrils. If it feels too small, try going up one size for sleep.
- Check Your Tab Placement: Proper application helps ensure your Band stays secure and provides the intended lift.
- Review Your Sleep Habits: Sleeping position, alcohol before bed, and bedroom allergens can all contribute to snoring.
Still Snoring?
If snoring persists, especially if you experience gasping during sleep, breathing pauses, or excessive daytime tiredness, consult a healthcare professional. These can be signs of sleep apnea.
Intake is not a treatment for sleep apnea and should not replace CPAP or other prescribed treatments.
