As sleeping disorders go, this may not be the worst one. Sexsomnia patients report having initiated sex while sleeping. Now scientists have provided a hint at the prevalence of this sleep sex.
Sexsomnia was reported by 7.6 percent of patients at a sleep disorders center, researchers report today. Starting sex while asleep was more common in men (11 percent) than women (4 percent).
Previous studies have found that some people — mostly men — occasionally initiate sex with a partner and reach orgasm during sleep. They usually have no memory of such "sleep sex," as some researchers call it. They find out about it only if a partner tells them.
