In fact, it is believed that only a small percentage of women suffers from it, that is, it is more frequent in men. A study carried out at Stanford University, United States, showed that women are the least prone to start such an encounter.

SCHENick, different categories of sleep-related disorders, such as parasomnias (confusional awakenings/sleepwalking), sleep-related seizures, Kleine-Levin syndrome, severe chronic chronic insomnia, restless legs syndrome, narcolepsia, exacerbation of the sleep of syndrome sleep syndrome, of persistent sexual excitement, painful erections related to sleep, among others.

However, this study reported that five bedrooms and three patients with sleep -related seizures reported pleasant effects. In all cases of parasomnias, amnesia was reported for the sex of sleep.

SCHENck also commented that Women tend more to masturbation and sexual vocalizations, while in men caresses and relations with intercourse are more frequent.

Benefits and techniques of female masturbation

Despite all the questions about the subject, these have not been able to be resolved by the specialists, being the most unknown the reason why a person becomes more aggressive when he has relationships while sleeping.

A medical study from Stanford University entitled: "Stanford's experts deal.

Patients experienced symptoms that included strong groans and sexual aggression and, Regardless of how violent the behavior was, none of them remembered the next morning. Therefore, researchers consider that this condition is due to failures in brain waves during sleep, so they expect the problem to be recognized of medical and non -psychological origin.

Patient treatment included relaxation therapies and breathing exercises, In addition to the regulated consumption of anxiolytic, relaxing, anticonvulsive and sedatives.

The research team states that it is a medical problem for which there is a treatment, which is the same that is used to treat sleepwalking.
