Doctor can evaluate: Means obstruction somewhere. If one's oxygen level drops when sleeping, it means the brain and the body are not getting enough oxygen when sleeping. It causes health problems like brain problems, blood pressure problems and heart problems. Sleep doctors, ENT doctors, and lung doctors are the specialists who treat this. For teens, aside from losing weight, removing tonsils and adenoids may help.
