It is said Allah revealed Surah al-Nisa 4:128 regarding this.
Shows the permissibility of spouses negotiating over their marital rights, and is said to be the occasion of revelation for Qur'an 4:128. As a result, the Prophet ﷺ effectively spent a double share of nights with Aisha RA.

O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, I have no jealousy of your other wives, and I want to be with you so that I can be resurrected among your wives on the Day of Judgment, so take my night and give it to Aisha.
وَإِنِ ٱمْرَأَةٌ خَافَتْ مِنۢ بَعْلِهَا نُشُوزًا أَوْ إِعْرَاضًۭا فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْهِمَآ أَن يُصْلِحَا بَيْنَهُمَا صُلْحًۭا
“If a woman fears indifference or neglect from her husband, there is no blame on either of them if they seek [fair] settlement, which is best.”
