Why do men get 'morning erections'?!


Question: marriage sexuality


Answers: marriage sexuality

Several different things can cause it to happen. First, testosterone production tends to peak at night and concentrate in the bloodstream. The higher level causes increased blood flow to the penis. Second, most men wake with full bladders, and as the bladder fills to capacity it will put pressure on the spinal nerve that triggers erections. The increased pressure in the bladder also decreases blood returning from the penis- more is trapped in, and that is after all what causes erections to happen. And finally, they tend to occur when men are relaxed, and in the early morning, just after a full nights sleep, most men are at their most relaxed. It's actually a very healthy sign in a male, and confirmation that all systems are working as advertized. One of the first things a doctor will want to monitor in a male complaining of erectile disfunction is the occurence of nocturnal or first morning erections. If those are happening, then the problem isn't with the equipment, but the operator.

biology, we're just made that way

As Buddy Love said. I get them everyday...

Because God said to Adam "Your ***** needs to **** you from the moment you wake up to the moment you go to sleep." And that is the history to why we have morning wood.

"good dreams" lol

The body being fully relaxed allows blood to flow feely, and the penis being in a flacid condition begins to take in alot of that excess blood. Not a sexaul arousal just a natural one. Nothing wrong with it, this is just the way it works.

During several hours of sleep, the bladder fills and puts pressure on the prostrate, which stimulates the erection. That's why we call it a "pee-rod". Because we wake up with a hard-on and have to go pee.

it just happes like that

That's just what men do!! I don't think there's really an explanation for it!! I stay on hard all the time so it's kind of normal for me!!

It is a phenomenon of sleep, and has nothing to do with what one is dreaming about. Women also have increased blood flow in the same region while sleeping, it's just not as obvious (or funny)

In my case from a full bladder.

you have to pea

The "morning glory" is part of the standard operation. Guys have erections repeatedly through the night, and "wakeup wood" is part of the pattern.

If you wake up before he does, go ahead and play with it. There's about a 90% chance he'll think it's the coolest way to wake up. There's about a 9% chance he'll take a bathroom break and come back so you can carry on where he asked you to leave off. There's about a 1% chance he'll find it uncomfortable.

Generally everyone can see . The guys have erection in cold places or when they wake up

We ALL get morning erections! We have them on and off all through the night too. It is normal and healthy.

thats just the way were are
erections occur during REM sleep, dream sleep
that occurs about every 90 minutes
since most people are dreaming right before they wake up men will tend to have an erection then
it is normal and if they dont have them then something is wrong and they shold see a doctor
also as they said in the "bucket list" movie, never waste a hard-on
