Morning Erections...what You Need To Know. by Nobody: 10:04am On Mar 08, 2021 |
I'm looking down my boxers with anger. Why nitori oloun. Must it be everyday? So I decided to go online on how to stop it. Here's what I found Morning wood, or as it’s formally known, nocturnal penile tumescence (NPT), is a common occurrence for many boys and men. From time to time, men may wake up with an erect penis. This is most common in younger men, although men of all ages may experience NPT. Many people assume a morning erection is a sign of sexual stimulation, however this isn’t always the case. Morning wood is likely the response your body has to one of several natural occurrences. What causes morning wood? Physical stimulation Though your eyes are shut, your body is still very much aware of what’s happening around you. If you or your partner accidentally touch or graze your genitals, you may become erect. Your body senses the stimulation and responds with an erection. Hormone shifts Your testosterone level is at its highest in the morning after you wake up. It is highest immediately after waking up from rapid eye movement (REM) sleep stage. The increase in this hormone alone may be enough to cause an erection, even in the absence of any physical stimulation. As men get older, usually between ages 40 and 50, natural testosterone levels begin to fall. As this level decreases, episodes of NPT may decrease as well. Brain relaxation During your waking hours, your body releases hormones to suppress erections. When you’re asleep, your body releases less of those hormones. Combine this fact with the other reasons you may experience an erection in your sleep, and NPT becomes more likely. Who gets morning wood? Men of all ages can experience NPT. It’s healthy at any age and is a sign of a properly functioning blood and nervous system in and around the penis. Young boys may experience NPT as young as 6 to 8 years old. NPT may also occur in men in their 60s and 70s. It will become less frequent as ED issues begin to occur, and those issues become more frequent with age. What does it mean if you stop getting morning wood? Having an erect penis when you wake is an indicator of healthy blood and nerve supply to the penis. The presence of NPT also likely indicates that you’re physically capable of getting and maintaining an erection while awake. If you stop experiencing NPT or notice that you’re not waking up with an erect penis anymore, this may be an early sign of an underlying medical problem. Most likely, this is a sign of physical erectile dysfunction (ED). You may have something happening within your body that’s preventing adequate blood or nerve supply for proper erectile function. You may be more likely to experience ED if you: are overweight have high blood pressure have high cholesterol levels have diabetes have depression Certain physical disabilities may also make ED more likely. Medications may also affect your ability to experience morning wood. Painkillers and some antidepressant medications may prevent NPT. NPT may become less common as you get older, but if you’re young and are not experiencing a morning erection or if your erections suddenly stop, it may be time to see your doctor Source https://www.healthline.com/health/mens-health/morning-wood#what-if-morning-wood-ceases There you have it guys. So you don't have to worry. Now I'm looking at my boxers with a huge smile. So it means I'm healthy and not the devil tempting me to..... 1 Like |

Every morning, my gbola rise before me. I always make sure I go to balcony every morning to let my female feminist neighbour know what she's missing. I find joy in tormenting her with my massive gbola every morning. Having a gbola that responds to nature is truly a blessing. 1 Like |
