Why do we get Morning Wood?

[Dimentio]

Wellin the morning, When i wake up i am pracitcally always horny and there are maybe two-three nights i have woken up without a morning wood!
So why is that?
Does it happen to anyone else?

[senior.2013]

Blood starts flowing when you wake up. It happens to a lot of people, youre not alone

[Psychintraining]

happens to me EVERY morning. wank b4 school if your cool

[patrick2010]

ya i think like every guy wakes up with
morning wood. its pretty normal sometimes
due to a full bladder

[tetoo123]

It can be because all of the things people have said above, or you could of had a sexy dream. Who knows?!?!?!? But its very normal a lot of people get it and so do i, so sometimes i just wank before i go to school.

[RLuna]

I agree with Corbin, sometimes if its hard enough Ill just wank when i get up

[MrBojangles]

It's usually because you have a full Bladder....try taking a piss when you get up, like I do. Wait a few minutes, and if it's still rock hard wank the rest out. I always get mornin' wood lol

[lausonfarleyii]

i thought it was because you have to urinate in the morning time and thats how its holds it in

[tetoo123]

It could be either way really, blood flow or having to urinate but im not sure lol thats somethin to research lol

[lausonfarleyii]

with me i just pee and i goes down or like i sit on the edge of the bed and wait for 6min then it will go down

[Justin98]

i normally jerk

[Dimentio]

To answer your first relpy thingy, Yeah i masturbabte every day before school if i can, Espeically when i have P.E. That day so nothing embarrissing happens! That is kinda my routine ha ha, In the moening, Home from school, Night time, Always that.

We all get morning wood because our body releases more hormones at night as we grow the most during our sleep. The extra hormones cause us to get an erection. You have to piss because you havent in like 6-8 hours. I just masturbate in the morning.

Just nature :D

[Polo2847]

I think it's either an "alarm" to tell you to go empty your bladder. It could be a wake up call or it's a way for you body to make sure its healthy. Just go use the restroom it should go away.

[anubisgodofdead]

Well it can be a number of things but you body makes blood flow "down there" to make sure it gets lots of oxygen so it sends blood down there. Therefore giving an erection in your sleep and sometimes you wake up while the blood is still down there. It happens 2-3 times a night. A full bladder can also be a sign of it too.

[Tonebone88]

I'm not quite sure why it happens, but it's definitely normal.

[qmann8]

every morning i get it

[Oukakystan95]

What is morning wood????

[csshively]

I would agree with all of the above.

[jaedwards1]

try jacking off before actually going to sleep. I barely ever have morning woodies anymore because I j/o before i go to sleep. It helps you sleep a little easier because you're relieving your body from the day's stress

[Irishperson15]

I heard its cuz ur hormones and testosterone levels are at their highest and this is why

[Electra Heart]

Over the course of your sleep you get about 2-3 erections, when you have morning wood one of them lasted until you woke up.

[jimmyboy92]

I think its cos bodies like to make life difficult........I mean you're desperate for a pee first thing in tge morning so giving you a boner just makes that more difficult lol! :rolleyes: I also have them pretty much every morning. :(

[Burn007]

mornimg wood is 200% normal but if you dont have it phew days in a row when you wake up i would want to consult expert!its a regular thing but not being horny fow awhile can cause it

[sen69]

I always have morning wood. It is oftentimes due to the need to urinate or sexual dreams

[munzy5581]

happens to everyone wank and it will go away:D

[Bretts]

It always happens to me, it usually goes Away in the shower, and if it doesn't I juss wank in there.

[spoke]

when you are in the deepest sleep, known as REM, guys get erections like every 20 minutes. so if you wake up from that sleep a good chance you'll have an erection

[disguy15324]

It happens to all men I'm sure... definately me. I would think it could be due to blood flow, or a full bladder. Etc.

[Jupiter]

Blood starts flowing when you wake up.

[Short Circuit]

I have read several answers to this, some say its because your bladder is pressing on your prostrate gland, while others say its the increase in blood pressure you get when you wake up. Here is a POSSIBLE answer from Yahoo Answers:
