Why do I get an erection after a nap?

Nowadays, people often take a nap at noon because of the hard work. In fact, naps are very beneficial to us and can help us stay energetic during the afternoon work. However, naps can also cause some unexpected problems, especially for male friends, the phenomenon of penile erection will occur, which many people will be particularly confused about. So why do you get an erection after a nap?

The penis of a normal man is usually in a flaccid state except for sexual stimulation or some external stimulation. However, sometimes the reflex action of internal organs can also cause the penis to erect.

This phenomenon of penile erection due to relevant stimulation is a completely normal physiological phenomenon. It is neither a disease nor something shameful. Adolescent boys are particularly sensitive to sexual stimulation due to the newly increased androgen levels.

The exact mechanism of penis erection during nap has not been studied clearly yet. In any case, it is certain that penis erection during nap is a normal physiological reaction of men. Moreover, the changes caused by individual differences among men are not consistent every day. You must not judge the quality of men's sexual function based on this point alone.

Doctors need to use this as a reference when identifying and diagnosing changes in sexual function. This is completely limited to pathological situations, and a normal man should not blindly use this to identify good and bad. Some men, once the erection phenomenon during naps is suspended or relaxed, they suspect that they have impotence, so they worry about it. The more they worry about impotence, the less erection they have during naps, and even weak erection. This is a terrible vicious cycle, because psychological anxiety will lead to physiological imperfections; and physiological problems will induce further psychological anxiety, and so on, it will get worse and worse. At this time, you should quickly seek medical treatment.
