Is it normal to not have morning erections?

We all know that most men will have morning erections in the morning, but for some patients with kidney deficiency and impotence, they may not have morning erections in the morning. In fact, men's morning erections do not occur in the morning, but this phenomenon occurs frequently at night, but it will continue until the morning. So is it normal to have no morning erections in the morning? Let's take a look at it below.

Morning erections don't just happen in the morning

In fact, men will have 3 to 5 spontaneous erections when they sleep at night, each lasting about 15 to 60 minutes. This is a natural physiological reaction during sleep. During this process, the body will perfuse the penis with sufficient blood, bringing in oxygen and nutrients, which is beneficial to maintaining erectile function.

What we often call morning erections are actually a continuation of nighttime erections.

Since nocturnal erections usually occur between 4 and 7 a.m., and we only notice them when we wake up in the morning, some people think they don't have morning erections, but in fact, the penis may have erected several times late at night.

Morning erections don’t necessarily happen every day

Morning erections are not like erections caused by sexual stimulation, nor are they erections caused by ejaculation during erotic dreams. The occurrence of morning erections is not affected by the brain's consciousness, the actual situation, or thinking.

Control and other impacts do not necessarily occur every day.

Staying up late, poor sleep quality, high work pressure causing mental and physical fatigue, bad habits such as smoking, drinking, sitting for a long time, overeating, excessive masturbation, excessive tension and anxiety, etc., will all affect morning erections.

As age increases and testosterone levels decrease, the frequency of morning erections will also decrease. Before the age of 30, the frequency and duration of morning erections will increase with age, but after middle age, they will gradually decrease.

Drugs such as anti-tumor, anti-hypertensive, acid-suppressing and sedative drugs, as well as chronic diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, can also cause a decrease in the number of morning erections.

Less morning erections may not be a sign of disease

Morning erections can be used to preliminarily determine whether there is erectile dysfunction, but this can only be determined after eliminating the above-mentioned factors such as bad living habits, psychological factors, sleep, and medication for diseases. Morning erections are not a single indicator for evaluating sexual function, and the specific situation also depends on the partner's satisfaction.

Many men lack a correct understanding of morning erections and often become overly anxious when their morning erections occasionally decrease. In fact, although most people have fewer morning erections, their erection hardness can still ensure a satisfactory sex life.

If it's more than two months, you should check it out.

If morning erections decrease occasionally, it is not a big problem. However, if morning erections are not obvious for 2 to 3 consecutive months, you should go to a regular public hospital for examination to rule out any diseases.

Disease affects and checks nocturnal erections, and then considers whether there is erectile dysfunction.

At the same time, you should pay attention to physical exercise, maintain a healthy routine and a happy body and mind. This is what you need to insist on most for a harmonious sex life.
