I am 17 and i am wondering why i get random erections?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Perfectly normal: They can occur by day & night. Every normal young male has erections whilst sleeping. Erections can occur by as result of a full bladder, especially first thing in am. Erections can be caused by glans penis rubbing on clothes. Also normal if you have any erotic thoughts or see someone attractive. Frequency will lessen with time. No cause for any concern, just means UR normal.
