Insomnia makes people listless, memory impaired, and inattentive. More seriously, it also deprives men of the opportunity to "maintain" their penis and improve their sexual ability.
In medicine, the term "penis erection at night" refers to the spontaneous erection of the penis when a person is asleep, which is common in normal men. The number of erections varies greatly with age, constitution and sexual function. Generally speaking, young men have seven or eight erections every night, which is significantly higher in theory than in the daytime. With age, the number of erections will gradually decrease. For healthy and normal elderly men, the number of erections is about two or three times a night.
The maintenance of penis cannot be separated from good sleep
Some studies have found that when the penis is erect, the oxygen tension in the cavernous body is 3-4 times higher than when the penis is weak. This hyperoxia tension contributes to the metabolism of penile cavernous endothelial cells and promotes the normal recovery of sexual function. Therefore, andrologists like to vividly call it "charging the penis".
If men who sleep well have several opportunities to "recharge" every night, they can ensure that their sexual function is in good condition. When a person has less sleep time or poor sleep quality, the nighttime erections that are conducive to "charging" appear less or do not appear at all. It is not hard to imagine that the erectile function of these men is bound to decline with the day.
In fact, in real life, there are not only insomnia patients, but also many "night owls" who often stay up late, and their sexual life quality is often unsatisfactory. The truth is the same. Therefore, it is hoped that the majority of men should combine work and rest to ensure adequate and high-quality sleep. This is a cheap and efficient "health care method" for penis and sexual function.
