Patient's question:
I had sexual intercourse with my girlfriend several times. Every time we were very focused, she was even more focused than me. Her lubrication was also a lot, but I didn't feel the "rhythmic contraction of the vaginal muscles" as people say. Why is that?Also, if I have sexual intercourse every night, will the man still have morning erections in the morning? Additional question for the first: What does morning erection mean for men? Is it always necessary?
Doctor's answer:
Morning erection refers to the natural penile erection in men between 4 and 7 a.m. without conscious control, unaffected by scenarios, actions, or thoughts. Morning erection is an important indicator of normal and strong sexual function. The penis of a normal man is usually in a relaxed state, except when stimulated sexually or by certain external stimuli. However, sometimes reflex actions of internal organs can also cause penile erection. The most obvious example is the frequent occurrence of penile erection during the early morning before waking up, which is medically known as morning erection. If a man's bladder is full before waking up in the morning, he often experiences morning erection. This spontaneous physiological phenomenon is not subject to human will and gradually decreases in both the frequency and duration of erections as one ages, generally having no significant impact on health.
