What is a man's morning erection?
Morning erection refers to the spontaneous erection of the male penis at 4 - 7 a.m. without being controlled by the scene, action and thinking. Morning erection is an important manifestation or indicator of normal sexual function and strength.
There is still no final conclusion in the medical field as to why it will rise in the morning. In addition to erecting under sexual stimulation and some external stimulation, the penis of a normal man is usually in a relaxed state. But sometimes the reflex function of internal organs can also cause penis erection. The most obvious is that before waking up in the morning, there will often be penile erection, some of which are caused by internal emergency in the morning.
It is normal for men to have morning erections after puberty to middle age. Young people have sex two or three days later, and middle-aged people have morning erections one week after sex. If the urine in a man's bladder is full before he wakes up in the morning, he will often have a morning erection. This spontaneous physiological phenomenon is not transferred by human will.
