Why don't I have a morning erection?

Morning erection refers to the subconscious erection of the male penis between 4 and 7 a.m. The occurrence of morning erection is not controlled by the scene, logical thinking, or posture. It is generally believed that boys around 10 years old just start to have morning erections; many people think that it appears later around 12 or 15 years old. In fact, morning erection is a natural physiological condition of men. Healthy elderly people will also have it. Even boys aged two or three can have morning erections, but the latter is due to urination and there is no physiological need.

There are many reasons why morning erections disappear:

Fatigue effect: If a man is overworked, physically tired, and does not get enough rest, it will also affect the frequency of morning erections.

Psychological influence: If a man is too sad or depressed during this period, the frequency of his morning erections will be significantly reduced.

Influence of sleep quality: Because morning erections usually occur under high-quality sleep conditions, if the sleep time is insufficient or the sleep is not good, it will affect androgen metabolism to varying degrees, thereby affecting the frequency of morning erections.

Age influence: Under normal circumstances, a man's age plays a decisive role in morning erections. At the beginning of puberty and adulthood, with the growth of age, the frequency of morning erections gradually increases, and the duration gradually increases. After men reach 30 years old, with the growth of age, morning erections will gradually weaken or decline.

Influence of unhealthy lifestyle: Excessive smoking, drinking, and irregular work and rest schedules in daily life will affect the health of the human body, which will also affect the occurrence of morning erections.

Effect of drugs: If you have taken some anti-tumor drugs, anti-hypertensive drugs, hypoglycemic drugs, acid-suppressing drugs, sedatives, etc., taking these drugs can also reduce the frequency of morning erections.

Impact of diseases: Some common diseases in men can also affect male sexual function and morning erections, such as high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, lumbar disc herniation, etc.

In addition, if you find that you have an abnormal erection in the morning, pay attention to observation. If you don't see improvement for a period of time, you should go to the local tertiary hospital for consultation, and don't blindly deal with it yourself. For the sake of their own health and sexual life, male friends must cultivate a good lifestyle, do proper exercise, and ensure good rest.
