What actually helped reduce your snoring?
Losing weight and not drinking alcohol.
So you’re saying it’s not fixable?
Losing weight is shockingly effective.
I’ve seen it in my whole family. We’ve talked about it. Snoring for us follows a clear pattern - gain weight, snore more. Lose weight, snoring goes away.
Drinking - same thing.
Sleep apnea diagnosis and CPAP.
Second.
Getting divorced. I haven’t had a complaint about my snoring since
A sleep study would probably be a good idea just to make sure you’re not stopping breathing while snoring - AKA obstructive sleep apnea. A sleep doctor may even have some other ideas like custom dental appliance or things other commenters and I aren’t aware of.
CPAP worked for me, dental appliance did not, nasal strips never worked
Breathe Right strips worked for a bit but weren’t effective long term. Eventually got tested for sleep apnea and ended up with a CPAP machine.
My dad made some wooden pedestals to tilt his bed at a 30° angle. That completely dealt with his issue
Or pavers.
Honestly I’m not sure why he didnt use cinderblocks. They would have done the same thing.
Wooden pedestals may be safer for … activities … depending on how he did it
Pushing spouse from back onto side
got rid of my ex wife
Earplugs.
An anti-snoring appliance made by my dentist. Works great. Wife gets upset when I don’t use it.
Seconded. I got a mouth guard to stop grinding my teeth and since using it my wife (and smartwatch) suggest my snoring has stopped. Double win!
Sleeping on my side
Sleep on side, no snore, but rotator cuff syndrome.
Sleep on back, snore, but no rotator cuff syndrome.
I hate being old.
I got one of those medcline wedge pillows with the hole in it for your arm and it’s been pretty sweet.
Never start a headline with “Anti”
