Are there benefits to morning sex?

There are a lot of benefits to having morning sex.

  • Testosterone and estrogen levels are higher in the morning.

  • You get to start your day with a surge of feel good hormones.

  • Your energy levels are not depleted.

  • You aren't losing any sleep or disrupting your sleep schedule.

  • During REM sleep there is increased blood flow to your genitals (so they are primed and ready).

  • Sex gets your blood flowing by increasing your heart rate.

  • If you always have sex at night, the morning light provides something new and different.

  • For couples with kids, it can feel “kid-proof” if you set your alarm for sex before they get up.

  • Planning for morning sex allows you to prioritize your physical connection.
