Why do men always feel tired after having fun?

The sexual intercourse process is enjoyable and stimulating, but many men feel tired afterwards and find it difficult to recover their energy. Why is this? How can post-event fatigue be improved?

Why do men feel tired afterwards?

Reason 1: Physiological phenomenon

During sexual intercourse, from the period of sexual excitement to the orgasm, men will experience physiological phenomena such as increased heart rate, increased blood pressure, deeper and faster breathing, dilation of blood vessels throughout the body, and increased perspiration. These physiological activities will inevitably accelerate physical energy consumption and enhance metabolism. For men, the feeling of fatigue after sexual intercourse is mainly the result of the immediate relaxation of the cerebrospinal reflex function that controls the discharge of semen after ejaculation. This relaxation time is related to age and physical condition. Young people and people who exercise regularly recover faster.

Reason 2: Sex is too intense

If sex is too intense or lasts too long, men who work at a desk for long periods of time may experience persistent fatigue due to excessive physical exertion.

Reason 3: Underlying disease

Certain underlying diseases may cause fatigue after sexual intercourse, such as anemia, mild heart disease, hypokalemia, hyperkalemia, thyroid disease, diabetes, etc.

In addition, the human body releases hormones during sex, including serotonin, norepinephrine, etc., and some substances are related to sleep, so people are particularly easy to fall asleep after climaxing in sexual intercourse.

If you want to relieve this fatigue and immediately restore your energy, you can use the following methods:

1. Do some back stretching exercises before going to bed

Stand up, as if emphasizing the inverted S-shaped spine, focus your attention on the back of your head and back muscles. While performing abdominal breathing, focus your strength on your back muscles and maintain a posture with your back protruding backwards. The lumbar spine is forward and the back of the head is backward. Focus your mind here and pull hard.

2. Reduce the frequency of sex

Frequent passion will naturally make the body feel tired. If a man feels that his physical strength is not as good as before and he gets tired easily, he can first reduce the frequency of sexual intercourse, get enough sleep and a balanced diet, and then observe his physical condition.

3. Regulate spleen and stomach function

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the "spleen governs muscles", meaning that the transportation and absorption of food nutrients and essence are closely related to the recovery and improvement of body muscle strength and physical fitness. Take good care of your spleen and stomach, and get enough sleep, and you will naturally feel energetic.
