Sen i seks: co mają ze sobą wspólnego?
Sleep and sex: what do they have in common?

Summary/Abstract: The first research paper that suggested that sexual behavior during sleep may be a new type of parasomnia was published in 1996 by three researchers from the University of Toronto and the University of Ottawa. The reality of sexsomnia has been confirmed by sleep disorder researchers who have made PSG and video recordings of patients. The objective of this work was a review of the literature on sleep related disorders and abnormal sexual behaviors and experiences. The first classification of sleep related disorders and abnormal sexual behaviors was quoted. Several clinical cases of these disorders were mentioned. Clinicians across various specialties should be informed about the clinical and medical-legal aspects of sleep and sex and consider questioning their patients about any sleep and sex problems associated with their neurologic or medial disorders. Sexsomnia is not always problematic for those who experienced it or for their partners. There is a great variety in both frequency and levels to which people are affected by this disorder.
