Untreated sleep apnea will most likely lead to sexual frustration and difficulty in your life.

Sleep and Sex can often be a barometer of your overall health. 

Most people who have sleep struggles are aware that it affects many aspects of daily life. However, did you know that it also affects your sex life as well? 

A large percentage of people with sleep apnea are undiagnosed However, there is a lot of data that can help those with sleep apnea get a better night’s rest as well as improve their sex lives.

In 2002, a study was done at Technion-Israel Institute of Technology which proved the fact that male patients who suffer from obstructive sleep apnea experience decreased libido and sexual activity. Not only does the lack of sleep affect their libido, but it was also found that those who suffer from sleep apnea secrete lower levels of testosterone. However, men are not the only people who suffer from sleep apnea. A study performed in 2011 focused on women with sleep apnea, and found that their scores on the Female Sexual Function Index indicated that they were at a higher risk for having sexual difficulties.

You could have probably guessed by this point that lack of sleep affects your libido. In men, lack of sleep attributes to dramatically reduced levels of testosterone, as discovered by scientists at the University of Chicago. This without a doubt contributes to a decreased sex drive. Additionally, lack of sleep leads to reduced sex drive in women as well. A study published in The Journal of Sexual Medicine focuses on the effects of sleep deprivation on women, and found that obtaining sufficient sleep is important to the promotion of healthy sexual desire and genital response.

Clearly, lack of sleep leads to decreased sexual desire among both genders.

We’ve all probably heard that it’s bad to use electronics before bed-the light messes up our bodies and prevents us from getting a good night’s sleep, almost to the equivalence of the way drugs affects our sleep. However, now it is recommended to turn off your electronics before bed to benefit your sex life as well. Durex has launched a new campaign based off their most recent research to urge people to shut off their electronics in order to help their romantic lives in the bedroom. Take a look: 

It’s as simple as that: just TURNING OFF your electronics can greatly benefit bedroom romance.

Our communication is greatly suffering because of technology, and it is crucial to have face to face intimate moments with your partner/spouse.

So please “Turn off to turn on.” It's also good for a sleep hygiene and healthy sleep habits.

Sleep Deprived? Lets try to help each other out.

Maybe you don’t already know, maybe you are. It’s not fun, nor easy trying to manage a sleep disorder. Although medical, natural, magical or any kind of solution, it is YOU in the end lying in bed who is struggling alone. It is YOU, the one counting every moment by, and trying to get that deserved sleep. It’s your eyes are like shining torches, penetrating the darkness when you would rather be asleep. It’s you who’s actually know what works for you best, and how sleep disorder affects every aspect of your life. All this information could be a critical and even life changing for one suffers from sleep disorder.

It takes a long time to be understood by the friends and family. It takes a very long journey to be understood by doctors and finally to be diagnosed by the experts, and even then it takes ages to normalise your sleep. Yet we know it is only a matter of time, the mind’s readiness and deep understanding of “you & yourself” will better manage your sleep disorder. Yet we know, only sleep strugglers like YOU can understand you better than others. For that reason, I want your sleep related wisdom come to light. I want you to share your sleep story in general, and what has worked for you in particular. Your sleep wisdom must be said loudly. Your inputs about sleep therapies, pills, herbs and all else are worth much more for others in that position. Sharing is caring isn’t it?

Imagine your first hand sleep stories, sleeping hacks, sleep knowledge or any of that wisdom shared worth even more than “sleep on Ambien” for somebody else?! Imagine that your personal  sleep wisdom will help someone to get a better sleep….. tonight?!

One does not simply deliver that, so I need YOUR help to spread the word and that important knowledge you already possess so it reaches out to as many sleep strugglers worldwide. Whether you or a loved one suffers from sleep disorder, please let them know this new initiative to expand the knowledge and awareness to sleep issues and latest solutions.

I want you, to become a digital mouth of the sleep strugglers worldwide. I want you to tell your sleep story, victory, advocacy, methods, best practice or any other sleep related information which will change or make anybody else’s life that much easier.

Ready to share your story? Let me know then.
