Sleeping posture is very important, not only affecting our sleep quality, but also affecting our physical health. For example, incorrect sleeping posture can reduce people's sexual ability. So, how should people choose the correct sleeping posture?
1、 The best sleeping position for improving sexual performance: supine position
Lying on the back is the most suitable sleeping position for men. Men choose a supine sleep position and naturally separate their legs, which can not compress internal organs and reproductive organs, but also avoid scrotal torsion. It can give the scrotum and penis sufficient space to move, effectively dissipate heat, promote the blood circulation of reproductive organs, and is most beneficial to reproductive system health and sexual function.
2、 Sleeping posture that affects sexual ability:
1. Right recumbent
It's not good to lie prone, and it's also not good to lie on the left side. Is it good to lie on the right side? Indeed, lying on the right side neither compresses the heart nor the reproductive organs, making it a good sleeping position, but not every male is suitable for sleeping on the right side. Medical experts have found that whether lying on the left or right side, it is possible to cause unexpected testicular torsion.
The testicles "reside" within the scrotum, connected to the body through a tissue called the spermatic cord on both sides. The spermatic cord has blood vessels that provide blood circulation to the testicles. When men sleep in a lateral position, the testicles and penis are squeezed between their legs, and the pressure they bear is much more pronounced than when standing.
Some men, especially teenagers, move around and twist their legs during sleep, which may cause twisting and knotting of the spermatic cord. Due to the passage of blood vessels that supply nutrients and excrete metabolites to the testes through the spermatic cord, once the spermatic cord undergoes torsion, the testes cannot receive nutrients and metabolites cannot be excreted. If the torsion time exceeds 12 hours, the testes may experience ischemia and necrosis.
2. Lying on the left side
Due to the fact that the heart is located on the left side of the body, when men adopt a left side sleeping position, the heart will be compressed, making it difficult for them to sleep stably and easily leading to poor sleep quality. Moreover, when the heart is compressed, the blood circulation throughout the male body, including the reproductive organs, slows down. When the reproductive organs do not receive sufficient blood supply for a long time, it may lead to male erectile dysfunction.
3. Sleeping on the stomach
The biggest drawback of sleeping on the stomach is that it compresses the heart. If the time is too long, or if the chest is compressed too heavily due to obesity or other reasons, it may affect the circulation of qi and blood around the body, resulting in heart discomfort, breathing difficulties, and other conditions. Traditional Chinese medicine says that heart failure is caused by insufficient qi, so it is important to ensure a good breathing state during sleep.
At the same time, the penis is compressed, hindering blood circulation, which can easily cause frequent ejaculation, causing symptoms such as dizziness and fatigue in men, and affecting normal work and life; When the scrotum is compressed and the heat cannot be effectively dissipated, it can increase the temperature of the scrotum, have a negative impact on the spermatogenic function of the testicles, and reduce male fertility. Therefore, men who have not yet achieved "fatherhood" should pay special attention and never lie prone.
