Morning wood, or as it's formally known as nucturnal penile tumescence (NPT), is a common occurrence for many boys and men. From time to time, men may wake up with an erect penis. This is most common in younger men, although men of all ages may experience NPT. Many people assume a morning erection is a sign of sexual stimulation, however this is not always the case. Morning wood is likely the response your body has to one of several natural occurrence.

Having an erect penis when you wake is an indicator of healthy blood and nerve supply to the penis. If you stop experiencing NPT or notice that you're not waking up with an erect penis anymore, this may be an early sign of an underlying medical problem, these includes:

1.Erectile Disfunction (ED): you may have something happening with your body that's preventing adequate blood or nerve supply for proper erectile function. You maybe more likely to experience erectile dysfunction if you are overweight, have high blood pressure, high cholesterol level, diabetes and depression. Certain physical disabilities may also make erectile dysfunction more likely.

2. You begin experiencing painful erections: most morning erection will subside within 30 minutes of waking up. If your erection last more than an hour after you wake up or if they become painful, you should make an appointment to see your doctor.

It's hard to declare " too much" and " too little" when it comes to NPT. Some men experience a morning erection everyday, some experience is less than once a week. During your annual physical exam, talk to your doctor about how frequently you're experiencing morning wood. If you're not experiencing it enough, your doctor may be able to help diagnose a reason.

3.Drugs: The intake of too much painkillers and some antidepressant medication may prevent NPT. NPT may become less common as you get older, but if you're young and aren't experiencing a morning erection or if your erection suddenly stop, it may be time to see your doctor. Please don't jock with it, because a young man without NPT is a sign of health problems hence you need to see your doctor for a remedy. Wish you the best.
