A member asked:
Do you lose blood when you don't sleep, or don't sleep during night hours, but instead when it's getting bright (going to bed around 6am for example)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No blood loss: Changing your sleep schedule may make you feel tired, depressed, craze different kinds of foods, alter body hormone function, but will not make you lose blood.
