Snoring is quite common, and is caused by different reasons. Diagnosing why you snore will reveal the cause of your snoring and then you will know the steps you could take to remove this cause and stop snoring.

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is the most common type of sleep apnea. During sleep, it is natural for the muscles in the body to relax. However, in the throat, the airway is made up of soft tissue walls that are collapsible. When these soft tissues relax during sleep, they obstruct the passageway, causing obstructive sleep apnea.

Sleep apnea affects more than 100 million people across the world, and almost 80% cases remain undiagnosed. Being a potentially serious sleep disorder, it is important to know whether you have sleep apnea and have it treated. Since males have larger circumference of neck and lengthier pharyngeal airway, they are more at risk of sleep apnea than females.
