Interesting fact for you! Everyone has different sleep schedule naturally. Some people are early to bed and early to rise, these people are called "LARKS". Some people go late to bed and are late to rise just like you, these people are called "NIGHT OWLS". These night owls work best at night and sleep most peacefully late night or early morning. So this is your physiological cycle and it's completely normal. Take care.

"I want to reassure you that using a phone until night and sleeping at 5 AM will not directly cause cancer. There is no scientific evidence linking mobile screen usage or late-night sleep schedules directly to cancer development at your age. However, while you are not at risk for cancer, this lifestyle is extremely harmful to your growing body’s development, hormonal balance, and mental health."
Next Steps
Short-term Risks: While not cancer, sleeping at 5 AM increases the risk of obesity, poor concentration in studies, irritability, and weakened immunity.
Blue Light Filter: If you must use your phone at night, always keep the 'Night Mode' or 'Blue Light Filter' ON to reduce eye strain.
Physical Activity: Try to get 30 minutes of physical exercise during the day; it helps your body feel naturally tired by evening

No 😄 sleeping at 5 AM won’t suddenly give you cancer, so don’t panic 👍 But your body clock is definitely filing complaints against you 😅 Long term poor sleep can affect mood, focus, hormones, skin, energy, and health over time. Let’s help you fix the schedule gradually without forcing anything book a quick consult 🙂
