Morning Wood

Do any of you guys ever get this anymore? I’m still new at all this, so pardon me if it seems like a dumb question. My GP basically told me that if you are capable of achieving morning wood, then you’re most likely healthy because it means you not only have enough testosterone in your body, but also there’s nothing wrong with the plumbing. Also, that controlling anxiety plays a big role in getting the proper REM sleep to achieve it. Does that sound right?

This is certainly not a dumb question. I get morning wood here and there but I definitely feel like propecia has done something to alter the frequency of my morning erections. I’m in my 20’s and I feel that at that age we should be getting it pretty frequently. It would also make sense that any kind of damage done by this drug would only be compounded by the anxiety we experience from stressing out about it. Your GP is right though. If you do wake up with morning erections regularly then there shouldn’t be any plumbing issues and you are probably healthy with good testosterone. If you’re experiencing bad sides from this drug man, you are NOT alone. Hang in there though because there’s a number of studies going on right now that should hopefully yield some promising results when they are completed.
