A member asked:

Is it normal to have morning erections?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

AM erections=NORMAL: On average a healthy male will have between 3-5 erections in a full night sleep! with each erection lasting between 25 -35 minutes. The last erection is 'the morning' one. Morning erections are a healthy and normal physiological response that most men experience. Lack of am erections is a sign of ed (erectile dysfunction) and patients with ed may benefit from viagra (sildenafil) like meds.
