Why Men Will Always Experience Morning Er3ction When They Sleep Alone! With Video
It’s
an amusing, albeit often highly inconvenient, phenomenon that half of
the world’s population has to deal with on a regular basis. So what’s
the science story behind that morning glory? Let’s find out.
Morning
glories, or nocturnal penile tumescence (NPT) as they are correctly
called, are spontaneous 3r3c tions that occur during sleep or while
waking up. All blokes without erectile dysfunction are graced with them
and they normally occur around three to five times during sleep.
NPT actually starts in utero, or
in the womb (seriously), and continues throughout life. If it’s any
consolation, men aren’t completely alone—women also get clitoral 3r3c
tions and vaginal engorgement during sleep, and various nonhuman mammals
also get NPT.
While a few different theories have
been proposed over the years to explain NPT, what causes it still
remains uncertain. NPT, just like clitoral 3r3c tions, is associated
with REM(rapid eye movement) sleep. One idea is that during REM
sleep, noradrenergic cells(neurons that release the neurotransmitter
noradrenaline [norepinephrine]) located in an area of the pons (part of
the brainstem) called the locus coeruleus are switched off. It is
thought that these cells are associated with the inhibitory tone of the
pen !$; therefore, when their activity is reduced during REM sleep,
testosterone-dependent excitatory tones can be expressed which result in
an 3r3c tion.
Another
interesting theory is that pitching a tent prevents men from wetting the
bed. There are two main types of 3r3c tions: psychogenic and reflex.
The former starts with stimulating thoughts or images which trigger an
3r3c tion via nerve signals. The latter is an involuntary process that
occurs without s 8 xy thoughts and it’s believed that a full bladder can
trigger them. The nerves controlling these reflex 3r3c tions are
located in the sacral nerves of the spinal cord which are
also stimulated by a full bladder. Since it’s difficult to pee with a
stiffy, it’s thought that NPT may prevent accidental nocturnal enuresis
(bed wetting). While this may sound plausible, it seems unlikely because
the body has lots of other methods to prevent you from wetting the bed.
Furthermore, it doesn’t really make sense given that nocturnal enuresis
also affects women.
It
seems the most likely explanation is that all of that nighttime mischief
is really helping to keep your crown jewels healthy. Be pleased he’s
looking out for you.
