Sex in the Morning VS Sex at Night - When is the Best Time to Be Horny?

Blokes tend to wake up feeling amorous, while their partners get in the mood late in the evening - so why can't we synchronise our sex clocks?



So the saying goes, women are from Venus, men are from Mars, right? Well, it turns out that women and men are operating on completely different time zones as well.



According to a lot of research, it has been found that women are most interested in getting steamy between 11pm and 2am, while men are more frisky between 6am and 9am: the average time being 11:21pm for women, and 7:54am for men. Unfortunately, only a whopping 16% of men have been recorded to want sex before they sleep at night.



It doesn’t just come down to a simple: men have morning wood, and women want sex at night. Rather, there is some real science behind why women and men are on such opposite sex schedules, and why their appetites don’t always coincide with one another.



Women and men both produce testosterone, which is the heaviest influence for sex drive in our bodies:



A man produces the most testosterone before he even wakes up in the morning - anywhere between 25%-50% more than any other time throughout the day.



So, as the sun begins to rise, he’s already sending more juice to the engine for hen he opens his eyes.



Ladies, have you ever had mornings where your man’s boner just won’t leave you alone - yet all you can think about is sleep? This is totally normal.: women are at their lowest levels of testosterone in the morning. As the sun begins to go down, woman’s production increases - sadly just as men’s are decreasing. Curse you Mother Nature!!



A woman’s testosterone production also doesn’t fluctuate as severely throughout the day as a man’s does. men’s hormone levels increase and decrease immensely in a twenty four hour period, while women’s levels correlate more closely with their cycles.



Have you ladies noticed that you’re more horny about 2 weeks before your period is on it’s way? Well, here’s why: halfway through your cycle, you’re at your height of testosterone production: up to 30 times higher than at the start.



Another booster for testosterone - whether you are a man or a woman - is getting a sufficient amount of sleep. Sleep deprivation has been proven to significantly lower testosterone levels, simultaneously lowering sex drive.



So, guys, you wanna get some action in the AM? Make sure your lady is getting a good amount of shut-eye. Research shows that getting 5+ hours of sleep will raise a person’s sex drive by around 15%.



The old joke is that ‘Women need a reason to have sex and men just need a place.’ Funny enough, but not surprising by any means, research has concluded that even though men are more randy in the mornings, couples are most likely to have sex at night.



There are benefits to morning sex though, but that’s another article. ;-)
