Sleep for duration in multiples of 90 minutes. Sleep at same time every night. Drink lots of water. Install flux in your laptop and mobile. Or just prioritise sleep more by managing your time better. I suggest journaling hourly but it's not for everyone.

Zinc+ Magnesium. Best combo for healthy T

I'm assuming you lift. From a hormonal perspective, lifting without adequate sleep is one step forward, two steps back. This isn't a solution by any means, but just thought i'd point that out.

This website does a great job with this topic:

I've had sleep problems myself. Glycine (you'll feel more rested on the same amount of sleep) and eating carbs (makes you sleepy) before bed have really helped for me.

Highly recommend melatonin sleep aid. The ones that dissolve on your tongue are great. Cut them in half if you find they are too strong. They help me get good sleep even if it’s only for 6 hours.

I've been on this routine myself for over a year. I don't recommend it, I got a chronical back pain because I didn't get enough rest. It's been 3 years since this happened and I still have back pain for sleep privation if I don't sleep enough (9h) for 3 days in a row.

If you’re not lifting and eating clean. Cut out the processed foods and sugars. Eat high good fats. (Coconut, olive oil)

6 or 7 hours is ok as long as you keep other habits healthy. If you read the studies, evidence shows that T will only produce properly if you have a minimum stress threshold on your body. So, don't worry since grad school + 6 to 7 hours of sleep is in the "healthy" stress range for T production. Don't forget to eat properly, avoid sugar, reduce the carbs, ingest decent fat/oil and get some time for high intensity physical exercises every day (20 to 30 minutes should be ok as long as it's REALLY intense).
