This narrative review examines insomnia in breast cancer patients as a multidimensional neuropsychiatric condition linked to stress, treatment effects, and comorbidities like depression and anxiety. It synthesizes literature on the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and clinical implications of this symptom cluster across the disease trajectory. The resource is intended for clinicians and researchers seeking an integrative understanding of insomnia's role in breast cancer care.
