A member asked:
I never wake up in the morning with an erection, i sometimes wake in the middle of the night with one and can achieve one during sex. is this anything to worry about? i heard the penis is being "exercised" with morning erections?

OK!: If you are having normal erections during sex it seems as if your sexual health is OK. Morning erections might be associated with the timing of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. Eat well, get regular exercise, get adequate rest & sleep, avoid drugs & alcohol & practice safe & legal sex to help maintain your sexual health. Also get regular physical exams. I wish you well with your health!
