Lovemaking is done better in the morning or in the evening? A question that seems trivial, because it is true that making love is always good for you, but there are times when the body is more predisposed. This is told by the biorhythm and the physiological production of certain hormones, which make the body more receptive and ready. Then there is the head, thoughts and stresses of the day, and then the ideal time is not so different for men and women.

It would appear to be the morning the time when the body is most welcoming and receptive, ready for pleasure. It is not just a matter of having the head free from the thoughts and stresses of the day, but it is the body that commands and guides. It is in the very early hours of the morning in fact that the body produces testosterone, an important hormone for both women and men, which determines the development of libido and participates in desire. Testosterone is mistakenly associated with the male body only, yet, although in smaller amounts than men, women produce it in the ovaries and adrenal glands. Women, as well as men, need it to maintain stable mood, energy levels, and the sexual desire precisely. Testosterone production follows the circadian rhythm: it peaks in the early morning hours, between 6:30 and 7:30 a.m., and then declines during the day. This is the reason why Physiologically, the best time to have sex is in the morning.
In the morning is better
Starting the day with sexual intercourse, if fulfilling, is a good way to begin. There are many benefits: you reduce stress and relieve tension; it promotes good mood and optimism from the moment you wake up. In addition, thanks to the release of endorphins, having sex in the morning seems to have a pain-relieving effect, and according to some studies it is a good way to keep the couple together, sharing a positive pleasant moment throughout the day. Then there’s the head. And if it is true that pleasure cannot be separated from the mind, then there is no better time than in the morning, still free from thoughts, stress and problems. A free mind allows one to truly let go, enjoying every moment and gesture.
The night to reconcile eros
Not everyone is of the same opinion, however, and for some, waking up is indeed a difficult time, to be delayed as much as possible, without too much sharing or contact. In 2015 Paul Kelley, a professor at Oxford University’s Sleep and Circadian Neuroscience Institute, spoke of “torture” to define all human activities initiated before 10 a.m. According to Kelley, it is the evening hours that are the best for having sex, thanks to the release of oxytocin, the hormone that promotes relaxation. Psychiatrist Marc Schwob has identified around 10 p.m. as the best time to reconcile the two eros. Better yet, says Schwob, the ideal time for lovers would be. between 5 and 7 p.m., with lunch digestion finished, energy on hand, muscle tone and respiratory capacity at its peak. Conversely, sex after meals is not recommended., when the body is engaged in digestion and inclined to siesta more than sexuality.
What Italians like
But, body aside, what do Italians like? According to a survey from a few years ago, conducted by tour operator SpeedVacanze.it on a sample of 1,000 men and 1,000 women between the ages of 24 and 48, americans want to sleep at night. 62% of men and 53% of women prefer sex in the morning, perhaps just after waking up. The reason? In the evening one is too tired and stressed. According to the survey, only 11% of men and 6% of women choose the afternoon as a time for pleasure, before letting fatigue overcome them. A well-established habit, as 68% of men and 54% of women have sex upon waking up even on vacation, preferring to go out during the day and evening. Tiredness also determines the day of the week preferred by Italians to exchange amorous effusions: 70% of men and 59% of women have no doubt in declaring that it is the weekend the best time to indulge. Excluding the weekend, Monday seems to trump the other workdays, when you are still fresh and not too absorbed.
When you can
There is the body, theory and will, and then there is the everyday. The sexual sphere within relationships is a pillar that determines their resilience. Dissatisfaction within the couple is one of the main reasons for closure, and for that, even striving at times, it is necessary to find that magic moment for eros. Couples are aware of this, for that eventually sex gets done when you succeed. It is not surprising, then, to learn that the couple completely changes and disrupts intimate and sexual routines with the arrival of children. There are the new mother’s hormones rowing against, there are worries about the new arrival, there is a new balance to recreate and spaces to regain. Time becomes a strategic fit in which survival takes over at detriment of pleasure. Then the time for sex is what you can carve out for yourself. In any case, the body speaks, and listening to it he knows it well when is the best time for pleasure.
