You have just had incredible sex with your partner and all you want to do is initiate a quality snuggle session and chat about what's been on your mind lately . But you turn over and someone's out like a light . The AUDACITY . You're annoyed and mildly offended - why is your man always dozing off post-intercourse ?? Let's find out why !

- It's all in your head ! During male ejaculation a cocktail of brain chemicals is released - these chemicals can make him doze off .

- One of these hormones is called PROLACTIN . While prolactin is linked to feelings of sexual satisfaction and the refractory period in men , it's also a hormone in higher levels during sleep .

- The love hormone - OXYTOCIN . The "feel-good" hormone oxytocin also surges during sex , which can vanish any stressful thoughts from your mind , making it easier to relax and fall asleep afterward .

- The biological clock - MELATONIN . If you have sex with the lights out , you'll signal your body's internal clock that it's time for bed . When that happens , the hormone melatonin ignites your sleep cycle .

- When prolactin , oxytocin and melatonin all come together , you have the trifecta for a fantastic snooze !
