    hey i am at day 37 "normal mode"

    i was wondering wether or not you have to wake up with "a stick between your legs" (LOL) at wake up, as it has not been the case for me for the past weeks... i do wake up with traces of an erection when i go for "the morning pee". i can feel it...

    what do you think ?

    I don't think I ever had it every morning without fail. But teens and twenties, probably more often than not.

    I am 38 and I experienced morning wood (or, at least, morning 'semi') this morning, and I am on day 5.

    Npt occurs as a check engine to keep your penile tissue healthy and keep the your penis healthy.
    Though scientist don't have all the answers.
    Matthew walker, a sleep scientist and author of why we sleep has extrapolated from his studies that Nocturnal wood and morning woods are very vital for your penis health. And it doesn't have anything to do with age. Thought they are yet to find out other benefits and reason for its occurrence.
    As long as you're not indulging in any vices and having a good sleep routine. You should be getting them.
    And for ppl with porn abuse. It declines with usage year after year to the point where you don't get any. And once you start abstaining it slowly comes back. But it takes a lot of time. And the most important part is to have a healthy sleep routine. Speaking from my own observation.

    Exactly this! We're meant to have morning wood. Mine only stopped about 2 years ago, before that I had them without fail and always ready for sex in the morning. Excessive masterbation and p0rn use killed them off. I'm 36 now!

    Guy at my work (who is 56) joked other day about how hard his morning wood was! Made me feel so jealous. P0rn really does fk you up mentally and physically.

    I don't think it's a requirement for normalcy, and I think it's quite normal for men not to have it many mornings, especially if the wood already occurred earlier when sleeping.

    At that age, I had morning wood every morning without fail! Always wanted sex first thing in the morning.
     
  11. I used to get them when I was younger. I'm 33. I get them in my sleep and would get them every morning before I started PMO. I think I got them every now and then when I started it. But now, I rarely get them in the morning. If I wake up out of sleep, it immediately goes away. So I don't know if that is good or bad. But, I need to abstain longer than 30 days to really know if Im making progress.

    It does scare me. My testosterone level last time I checked was like 464 ng/dl. So I'm a little nervous about that.

    Honestly I'm not exactly sure if you are supposed to at a certain age. I'm close to my mid 30s and I get them every day though.

  18. I'm worried and frustrated due to the fact that I don't get "morning wood"...
    Does MW only count when you're rock solid?...

    I have them inconsistently. Some mornings I do, some I don't.

    I have noticed that I get them in two situations. When I have to pee so bad and when I stretch (still in bed, I guess blood starts flowing everywhere). In this last case, I get them almost instantaneously.
