Is morning erection good or bad? Men should learn to make comprehensive judgments!

In the eyes of most men, morning erections are a good thing, indicating that there is no problem with sexual function. Here we clearly tell everyone that you cannot judge sexual function based on morning erections. In most cases, morning erections are good, but if you want to understand your body, you still need to make a comprehensive judgment.

1. Is it good for men to have morning erections?

When they wake up in the morning and see that their penis is erect, some men will be secretly delighted, thinking that this is a sign of strong sexual ability. On the contrary, if they do not have an erection in the morning, they may worry that they are "not good enough". So, what does morning erection mean to men? Can it become an important criterion for men to judge their sexual ability?

Because the male body's daily state is different, morning erections are not always the same. The presence or absence of morning erections alone cannot determine the quality of a man's sexual function. However, morning erections are still very important for men as one of the reference standards for health.

Generally speaking, men have three to five erections every night, and each erection lasts an average of 15 minutes, but can last up to an hour. As long as the structure and function of the nerves, blood vessels and corpus cavernosum of the penis are normal, there will be an erection. So morning erections are a very normal phenomenon and there is no need to worry.

If morning erections subside, it may be a sign of physical aging, or it may be a sign of poor rest recently, or it may be a sign of the onset of certain diseases. Do not take medication at random at this time, and do not be overly nervous. If you find that morning erections are not obvious, you should go to the hospital for treatment in time.

2. What causes men’s morning erections?

Morning erection refers to the spontaneous erection of the penis of a man between 4 and 7 in the morning without any awareness or control by the situation, action or thought. Morning erection is an important manifestation or indicator of normal sexual function and strength.

The reason for morning erections is still undetermined in the medical community. A normal male's penis is usually in a relaxed state, except for sexual stimulation and some external stimulation. However, sometimes the reflex of internal organs can also cause penile erections. The most obvious is that penile erections often occur before waking up in the morning, and some are caused by the urge to defecate in the morning.

It is normal for men to have morning erections after puberty and middle age, two or three days after sexual intercourse for young men, and one week after sexual intercourse for middle-aged men. Men often have morning erections if their bladders are full of urine before they wake up in the morning. This spontaneous physiological phenomenon is not subject to human will. With age, the frequency and duration of penis erections will gradually decrease, and generally have no effect on the body.

3. What factors affect men’s morning erections?

1. Age: Under normal circumstances, age is a determining factor for morning erections. After sexual maturity, with the increase of age, the frequency of morning erections gradually increases, and the duration gradually increases. After the age of 30, with the increase of age, morning erections will gradually weaken or decline. However, some elderly people can still have a satisfactory sex life even though they do not have morning erections.

2. Sleep: Whether the sleep time is sufficient or not, and the quality of sleep will affect the secretion of male hormones to varying degrees, thereby affecting morning erections.

3. Emotion: Excessive grief, depression, etc. can significantly reduce morning erections.

4. Fatigue: Excessive fatigue and mental exhaustion can also affect morning erections.

5. Diseases: Many diseases can affect sexual function and morning erections, such as high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, lumbar disc herniation, etc.

6. Drugs: Anti-tumor drugs, anti-hypertensive drugs, hypoglycemic drugs, antacids, sedatives and Chinese medicines such as Anemarrhena asphodeloides and Phellodendron chinense can reduce morning erections. Ginseng, Astragalus, Deer Antler and other drugs can increase morning erections.
