A member asked:

I don't have morning erections and i'm still young, is this normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Erections: "morning erections" are not always present. It sort of depends on how you wake up. Males get 6 to 8 erections throughout the night, typically in deep rem sleep. If you awaken abruptly during one of those cycles, you may have an erection. If you awaken gradually, you likely wont have an erection. Not a problem.
