Looks like your mother was right all along: A good night’s sleep is the best way to start your day. And fellas, did you know it could affect your sex life, too? A new study has found that not getting enough sleep takes it’s toll in the bedroom.
The study, released in this monthâs issue of The Journal of American Medical Association (JAMA) and conducted at the University of Chicago by Eve Van Cauter, Ph.D., found that a lack of sleep may have a direct impact on the amount of testosterone produced in men.
Researchers found that lack of sleep decreased testosterone levels by 10 to 15 percent. That is quite a big drop, especially when you consider that testosterone levels in men decline naturally by only 1 to 2 percent a year as a man ages. This means that by losing out on your much-needed sleep, you might be drastically — and unnecessarily — aging your sex life by as much as 10 to 15 years.
