Snoring is a common sleep phenomenon but a major killer of sex life

Snoring is a common sleeping phenomenon, especially among middle-aged men. Many people believe that snoring is a sign of a good sleep. In fact, the louder the snoring, the more vulnerable your health will be, and the quality of life of the couple will be greatly reduced.

A British study found that snoring is a killer of sex life, and 25% of couples' sex life is affected by snoring. An academic group in the United States also conducted a similar study and found that snoring significantly affects the quality of sex life for both the snorer and his or her spouse. After treatment of snoring, the quality of their sex life improved significantly, with patients' sexual desire increasing, sexual intercourse lasting longer, sexual intercourse increasing in number, and orgasms becoming more intense.

There are many reasons why snoring affects the quality of couples' sex life.

First of all, the scientific name of snoring is sleep apnea syndrome, which means that the snorer's breathing will repeatedly stop while sleeping, causing severe lack of blood oxygen in the body's organs and forming hypoxemia. Because the blood does not reach the various organs of the body sufficiently, the blood needed for penis erection will naturally be in "short supply". In the long run, it will cause slow erection, reduced erection hardness, or erection duration that is too short, or even no erection can be achieved.

Secondly, snoring also indicates that the sleep quality is not high. Long-term poor sleep quality will make both parties in a state of fatigue, leading to metabolic disorders, abnormal secretion of sex hormones, and naturally a lack of sexual desire. Thirdly, snoring may also cause the other person to feel disgusted and resentful, affect sexual interest, and even cause emotional problems such as sleeping in separate beds, separation, and quarrels. If the conflict is not resolved, both parties will naturally lose interest in sex life.

Finally, snoring may also be a sign of a certain disease. For example, people who snore severely are more likely to suffer from high blood pressure and heart disease. If these chronic diseases are not discovered and treated in time, they will further affect sexual function.

Men with snoring symptoms must not take it lightly. They should actively exercise, lose weight, adjust their living and working conditions, improve physical fatigue, and promptly reduce the negative impact of snoring on their sex life. If you feel that your sexual life has been affected, you should go to the respiratory department or andrology department of a regular hospital if necessary.
