Men are the backbone of the family, but a sleeping position can ruin their health

Will sleeping posture have "bad consequences" on sexual function? The answer is yes. For men, the best sleeping position is lying on your back with your legs apart; lying on your stomach or side may have adverse effects on the male reproductive system.

Lying prone - not only does it compress the internal organs, causing breathing difficulties and damaging their functions over time, it also compresses the reproductive system. The penis is compressed, which hinders blood circulation and easily causes frequent nocturnal emission, causing men to experience symptoms such as dizziness and fatigue, affecting their normal work and life; the scrotum is compressed, and the heat cannot be effectively dissipated, which will cause the scrotum temperature to rise, have an adverse effect on the spermatogenesis function of the testicles, and reduce male fertility.

Sleeping on the left side - the heart will be compressed, which can easily lead to poor sleep quality. Moreover, when the heart is under pressure, the blood circulation of the male body will slow down, including the blood circulation of the reproductive organs. When the reproductive organs do not get sufficient blood supply for a long time, it may cause male erectile dysfunction.

Sleeping on the right side - Not every man is suitable for sleeping on the right side. When men sleep in a side-lying position, their testicles and penis are squeezed between their legs, and the pressure they bear is much more obvious than when they stand. Some men, especially teenagers, move around when they sleep, which may cause the spermatic cord to "twist" into a ball, causing twisting and "knotting". Since the blood vessels that supply nutrients to the testicles and excrete metabolites pass through the spermatic cord, once the spermatic cord is twisted, the testicles will not receive nutrients and metabolites cannot be excreted. If the twisting time exceeds 12 hours, the testicles may suffer from ischemia and necrosis. Therefore, sleeping on the right side is not the best sleeping position for men. If men insist on sleeping on the right side, they should also pay attention to their "sleeping posture" and not twist around.

Lying on your back is the most suitable sleeping position for men. Men should choose to sleep in supine position with their legs naturally apart. This will not compress the internal organs and reproductive organs, but also avoid scrotal torsion. It can give the scrotum and penis ample space to move, effectively dissipate heat, and promote blood circulation in the reproductive organs, which is most beneficial to the health of the reproductive system and sexual function.
