Why he dozes off after sex

"After orgasm, both men and women release the chemicals oxytocin, prolactin, gamma amino butyric acid (GABA), and endorphins. Each of these contributes to that roll-over-and-snore feeling," says Billy Goldberg, M.D., co-author of Why Do Men Fall Asleep After Sex?

But since both sexes release the same post-climax hormones, but why is the after-nooky snooze more of a guy trait? It's likely because women don't always have orgasms during sex, and hence, don't always release the sleep-inducing hormones. "If that's true, then you have your answer as to why men fall asleep after sex," adds Goldberg.
