    Just wondering why I get erections during sleep but not morning wood. I also don't get erections while awake unless I watch some porn with novelty (I get bored with usual things) I think the issue might be dopamine, I take Mucuna Puriens which is supposed to help.

    If I get erections during sleep, that means it's not a physical issue right? Although I should be waking up with morning wood too if that's the case.

    What I mean is I get erection DURING sleep, but not morning wood when I WAKE UP. Whereas before I get erection when I wake up, I didn't really notice erections before during sleep, maybe because I slept better.

  4. It is normal to have periods without morning erections. Espacially when under stress. You always had erections during your sleep, the difference is you were sleeping better. So you didnt wake up to find a boner in your underwear at night.

    But dude, dont worry. Worrying only makes it worse. As long as you keep having erections means your buddy works, and that’s the main thing.

    Just curious and a bit confused, how do you know you
    Get erections whilst you are asleep? Did you film yourself sleeping or something?

  6. That is funny! Hahaha no bro. At least not me.
    There are studies about human behavior when asleep and they categorized the cycles and in some of those cycles men get erections.
    It’s natural and healthy.
    Plus I’ve woken up in the middle of the night and had one, it’s happened several times

    Well I don't sleep as deep or well as I used to I guess, usually wake up middle of the night disturbed by my erection which I never get during the day and rarely when I wake up. Only if that happens in the day again....

    How often do you find you get them during the night? And how strong are they?

    Once or twice, pretty strong, stronger than erections I get during the day if I can get any. Also, whenever I have morning wood, it seems to go away straight away if I pee, is that normal?

    Sorry I mean more specifically, how often do you get these night time erections per week or per month?

    Yes morning wood going away after peeing is normal, I thought you said you don't get morning wood?

    I get it almost everyday actually, like 6 nights a month. Morning wood maybe at most once a week. I had morning morning wood almost everyday before, just like how I have these night time erections almost every night now. So looks like my ED is not physical but caused by porn use and low dopamine?
