When I make love to my girl I'm absolutely exhausted and need sleep, like I haven't been asleep in days. I'm normally a terrible sleeper, but after sex its like my whole body goes into hibernation and I'm dead for hours.
Does anyone else experience this, or know the cause?.

yo man, think its a mixture of chemicals make u tired, men and women both secrete them when they reach orgasm but men release a hell of a lot more. i remember reading myself that its Oxytocins effect on your brain that makes you tired after sex, because it relaxes you, but it can also make you want to cuddle, hence why the ladies want to hug afterwards. because we get more, we want to sleep. but im not 100%, it might have something to do with the endorphins we release. we prob just release more because we can actually orgasm when we bone, whereas most woman dont, so they dont get as much endorphins released.
hope this helps, dont worry about it though, theres a heck of a lot of guys who r like this!
just checked out wikipedia, looked up endorphins, says they are 200 times higher after sex than normal. being relaxed means you wanna sleep, just how its affecting you now. ur just calm and relaxed, enjoy it!

It's 'cause when you bust a climax, you use all your muscles.
Think some one brought this up before. Said some thing about test levels fall and what not. Could be part of it too. Draw some blood and send it in for testing after your next nut. Keep us posted too.

same with me man...actually i just broke up with my girl recently and now i have a really hard time sleeping...just looke at the time i posted this

I'm hate to admit it, but I do that too. I think it acts as a stimulant.
I hear its very bad however, coz after your training your body craves oxygen. Instead you give it carbon monoxide.

It Is A Chemical Released By The Brain After Climax. Typically Only Men Experience This Chemical Release And Women Do Not. That Is Why They Will Not Shut-up, And Insist On Talking Afterwards. It Is A Seratonin Or Nor-epinephrine Chemical, I Think. You Could Google It.
