How can a proton turns into a neutron which is heavier than a proton in proton–proton chain reaction?

I think a proton needs 3 times the mass of an electron because a proton is 1836 times heavier than an electron but a neutron is 1839 times heavier than an electron.

proton + proton → neutron + proton + positron + neutrino
