So maybe 5-6 hours is okay? Healthy?

Could be menopause. Could also be the apnea.

While not technically "ideal", 5-6 hrs is certainly manageable; especially if it's if you're being self aware of your sleep cycles. I'd be more concerned with addressing the apnea, as lack of oxygen can definitely effect the quality of sleep you're getting regardless of how many hours of sleep you actually have.
