Do eunuchs snore?

Medically anyone man ( with or without testicles) or woman will snore if the neck circumferance is more than 17.5 inches as the wind pipe is supressed in sleep, thus causing the mouth to fall open. Larger neck circumferances , generally on the clinically obese tend lead to sleep apnea.

Think some people just plane snore. Kids snore, I think I can remember my baby brother and sister even snored once in a while.

Believe it not it is true! Well partly! Testosterone is a nocturnal respiratory suppressant, and can cause the respiratory muscles to relax while sleeping, hence! This will cause snoring. And even worse if over weight. One the other side of things, progesterone is a respiratory stimulant, this is why very few women snore before menopause. I have sleep apnea, while chemically castrated it stopped. I am thin and don't snore much. but I do stop breathing during sleep.

Seems to me like most other side effects - some get em, some don't.
