Depends on the cause: Snoring is a significant problem for many people, & often goes undiagnosed or gets passed off as an irritation.

how do i stop a snoring husband?

Accepted Answer

4 main reasons: There are 4 predisposing factors for snoring:
1) being human
2) being male
3) overweight
4) nasal congestion
apparently, there is nothing to be done about 1 and 2, so you need to concentrate on 3 and 4.
You also need to consider the possibility that you are not dealing with simple snoring but snoring as a symptom of sleep apnea.
Overall, snoring is not a laughing matter. I would take it seriously.
