Sex and sleep are practically partners. Especially for couples, the issue of having sex and then going to sleep would depend on the mood and of course the time when both are willing to let off some steam. But as far as the men are concerned, there are scientific findings which link hormones released as a result of a male orgasm called prolactin that can entirely help a male sleep better.
“This hormone appears to be linked to the feeling of sexual satisfaction and it is also thought to be responsible for the recovery time a man needs before commencing sexual activity again.’’
So for people who have their reservations on sleeping soundly after having sex, here is your proof.
