I remember way back when I had a girlfriend (13F). I was 14. She didn’t snore that loud when I slept over, but she would definitely snore. It just came to mind and made me wonder if it’s normal to do so at 13.
Intensity matters.
Light snoring is no biggie and 100% normal.
When it’s moderate or heavy then it’s worth getting checked. If breathing pauses, esp. Followed by a fit, then it’s disorder (apnea). You’ll still need to do testing and work with a doctor.
There are also several reflux conditions that can result from nicotine/alcohol use which all together may worsen snoring, cause daytime mucus buildup (hacking), and/or cause apnea.
If breathing pauses, esp. Followed by a fit, then it’s disorder (apnea).
Only if it happens frequently enough. Apparently, having this happen a few times a night is normal for healthy people.
That’s insane! But good add.
normal but can be a sign of sleep issues
Yes. Totally normal to have regular mild snoring at any age.
I think it’s normal.
When I was a teenager all my mates complained that I snored really loud. Then I got diagnosed with severe sleep apneoa in my late 20’s
Is it normal for young people to have sleep apnea, asthma, or allergies? I shouldn’t have to sketch this out for you to draw a conclusion. People of all ages have various conditions.
I snore but I have sleep apnea, maybe get that checked if you also have poor sleep
This is like that doctor telling John Green “sneezing isn’t normal. I never sneeze.” Snoring is normal and probably good for you. When most people are dreaming deeply, they snore. It’s just how we’re built.
