A member asked:

I'm 35 and have ed. i notice when i eat turkey sandwiches and avocados that i wake up with a strong erection the next morning. why?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Very interesting...: One can keep a diary of the things eaten each day (written down on a large calendar), the foods, the drinks, the medicines, etc... Include on the diary the activities done that day. After 2-3 months, there should be enough data for one to review with his urologist to see if this is just an interesting coincidence.
