Men sleep off as a result of several biological factors: First, the obvious reasons for sex’s somnolent sway: the act frequently takes place at night, in a bed, and is, after all, physically exhausting (often more so for the man than the woman, although this certainly varies). So when sex is over, it’s natural for a guy to feel sleepy.

Secondly, research using positron emission tomography (PET) scans has shown that in order for a person to reach orgasm, a primary requirement is to let go of “all fear and anxiety.” Doing so also tends to be relaxing and might explain the tendency to snooze.

Then there is the biochemistry of the orgasm itself. Research shows that during ejaculation, men release a cocktail of brain chemicals, including norepinephrine, serotonin, oxytocin, vasopressin, nitric oxide (NO), and the hormone prolactin. The release of prolactin is linked to the feeling of sexual satisfaction, and it also mediates the “recovery time” that men are well aware of—the time a guy must wait before “giving it another go.” Studies have also shown that men deficient in prolactin have faster recovery times.

Prolactin levels are naturally higher during sleep, and animals injected with the chemical become tired immediately. This suggests a strong link between prolactin and sleep, so it’s likely that the hormone’s release during orgasm causes men to feel sleepy.

(Side note: prolactin also explains why men are sleepier after intercourse than after masturbation. For unknown reasons, intercourse orgasms release four times more prolactin than masturbatory orgasms, according to a recent study.)

Oxytocin and vasopressin, two other chemicals released during orgasm, are also associated with sleep. Their release frequently accompanies that of melatonin, the primary hormone that regulates our body clocks. Oxytocin is also thought to reduce stress levels, which again could lead to relaxation and sleepiness. Now you know.
You just nailed it. Though,there are exceptional cases with unconducive atmosphere, hardcore sex addicts, sex without emission of sperm,etc. These cant induce sleep under these condition.

I am really sorry my Dear but the way you stated your question it suggested that you were talking about your personal experience.

You said;

" I HAVE ALWAYS noticed that MOST men...." This suggest that you have so much personal experience in this cohort study you must have carried out for a long time and with many subjects.

I think it's because men use a whole lot of energy... concentrated energy in sex..... like every part of the body that can add to the activity must contribute all it can. Not only energy to ehmmm... fling styles and keep up with the rhythm... withstand the beatings and the scratching and the biting and the anaconda type squeezings from the one from the other side...but also to get the lungs to supply oxygen and the heart to gather and keep up the blood pressure to maintain the necessary stiffness. Blood is even drawn from the eyes which becomes tired and if tired sleep is a must until things return to normal. But ehmmm.... why would you even ask such a question after seeing men be huffing and puffing and sweating bullets? But women also do fall asleep even before the man can roll off to doze off..... but that is only if the man took her all the way to Orgasm .. ..a road too long for some men while too many others don't know the way!

See your gutter language and see the question you asked, and you expect anyone to believe you're a virgin? You must be high on something. Next time ask one of those pot belied men you sleep with why they fall asleep after pounding you.

Your post said.."most men", can you put a number on the number of men?

I am guessing that, you must have had a personal experience with these "most men" to have come away with this conclusion.

So you have slept with many men to know that most men sleep immediately after sex.

To your question, there an hormone (or whatever, can't remember the name now) that makes one sleep deep immediately after that thing.

da acts of noticing n experience r inseparable. U can't " notice " men sleeping off after sex if u haven't had sex with dem . n then say u r a virgin. Virginity's overrated anyway , a woman's worth has nothing to do with her hymen , any man who doesn't know dis is an idiat. but pple should quit lying . It's d men who sleep with women then turn around looking for a virgin to marry dat i will blame.

Only weak men get sleepy after sex. Sex with a strong man will make the lady fall into deep sleep.
