1. An electronic device, comprising:

based on detecting that the user is in the sleep state, obtain first biometric information through the at least one sensor, the first biometric information including a pulse,
identify whether a first value indicated by the obtained first biometric information is decreased so that a difference between the first value and a second value determined based on first biometric information obtained in a designated state is greater than or equal to a designated value, the designated state including a stable state during non-sleep, the first value and the second value being pulse rates,
based on identifying that first value is decreased so that the difference between the first value and the second value is greater than or equal to the designated value, obtain second biometric information through the at least one sensor, the second biometric information including at least one of an oxygen saturation or a blood pressure, and
