Three sleeping positions affect men’s sexual function

　　prone

　　Quite a few male Will ask "Isn't it good to sleep on your stomach? Sleeping on your stomach can help you sleep soundly! ”In fact, when men sleep on their stomachs, that is, lying on their stomachs, they not only oppress the internal organs, leading to poor breathing, and damage the internal organs function over time, but also oppress the reproductive system: the penis is oppressed, hindering blood circulation, easily causing frequent nocturnal emissions, causing symptoms such as dizziness and fatigue, affecting normal work and life. ； The scrotum is compressed and the heat cannot be effectively dissipated, which will increase the temperature of the scrotum, adversely affect the spermatogenic function of the testicles, and reduce male fertility. Therefore, men who have not yet become "fathers" must pay special attention and must not lie prone.

　　Lying on left side

　　Since the heart is located on the left side of the body, when a man sleeps on his left side, the heart will be compressed, causing him to toss and turn unsteadily and easily lead to poor sleep quality. Moreover, when the heart is compressed, the blood circulation throughout the male body will slow down, including the blood circulation in the reproductive organs. When the reproductive organs do not receive sufficient blood supply for a long time, it may cause male erectile dysfunction.

　　Lying on right side

　　It’s not good to lie on your stomach, nor is it good to lie on your left side. So, is it good to lie on your right side? Indeed, sleeping on the right side neither compresses the heart nor the reproductive organs, and is considered a better sleeping position. However, not every man is suitable for sleeping on the right side. Medical experts have found that whether you sleep on the left side or the right side, it may lead to an accident - testicular torsion.

　　The testicles "live" in the scrotum, and are connected to the body through a tissue called the spermatic cord on the left and right sides. The spermatic cord has blood vessels that provide blood circulation to the testicles. When men sleep on their sides, they sleep When sleeping, the testicles and penis are squeezed between the legs, and the pressure they bear is much more obvious than when standing. Some men, especially teenagers, move around and twist their legs while sleeping, which may also "twist" the spermatic cord into a ball, causing twisting and "knotting". Since the blood vessels that supply nutrients to the testicles and discharge metabolites pass through the spermatic cord, once the spermatic cord is torsion, the testicles will not receive nutrients and metabolites cannot be discharged. If the torsion time exceeds 12 hours, the testicles may be ischemic and necrotic.

　　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 do not move or twist around.
