Do you have morning wood?

Hello everyone,

Do you have morning wood and nocturnal erections?

If yes:

1) How consistent?

2) How is your EQ and libido in general?

3) Have you experienced periods where you don`t have morning wood and nocturnal erections. What made them return?

If no:

1) How’s your libido and EQ in general?

I`m interested in seeing how normal consistent morning wood really is. I`m concerned with my own lack of morning wood, but I believe it`s connected to my generally low libido. However, during periods of heightened libido and strong EQ, I usually did not experience wood then either.

Maybe it`s not something every male experiences even though he`s healthy? I seem to recall having read about people here with great EQ and libido, but who rarely have morning wood. I clearly remember that I used to have strong wood in my youth and would pack a boner all the way during my 2 hour commute to school without fail.

Thanks for your time.

Do you have morning wood and nocturnal

If no:

1) How’s your libido and EQ in general?
I have ED due to diabetes. My libido is fine; however, I am unable to achieve an erection without assistance from meds and/or constriction.

I have not experienced any night or morning wood in over ten years unless I have consumed blood circulation improving supplements and even then they are only cubbies.

Probably not what you were looking for.

If yes:

1) Everyday except for what’s mentioned in number 3.

2) I would say it’s high. My wife and I have sex every morning unless one of is sick/not feeling well. However I’m not a complete horn ball. I don’t get hard while watching porn. I’ve had lap dances at strip clubs and have not got hard. Yet I can’t sleep by the pool or at the beach without a towel over my swim trunks cause of “incidents”.

3) Yes and it throws up a red flag for me. No morning wood or lack of libido to me is a sign that my body is stressed. An example would be this past Monday morning, I wasn’t in the mood for sex and had no morning wood. Turned out had some 24 hour intestinal bug going on. No morning wood happens to me before getting sick or body is run down. Recently I went through my longest stretch in years of no morning wood for 7 days. Wife had tummy tuck and implant surgery and the off plus next 6 days no morning wood. It was like a switch was shut off in me plus wasn’t sleeping well with her. Then day 7 she wanted to have sex then after that things went back to normal.

By the way I’m 50, on no medications and consider myself in good shape/health.

Thanks.

That`s interesting.

Did your body “shut off” when your wife was not in the mood for sex? Maybe I need more women in my life and see if that cures it. As it is now, I generally don`t pursue anything with girls unless I`m drunk or in the mood.

Your post is both depressing and inspiring. Depressing because a 50 year old male get consistent morning wood and I don`t, but inspiring since there should still be hope for me. :)

Off-topic question: Is sex as good now as it was in your youth? Better?

I am 70 and retired and sex has never been better. I do not recall having sex as a teenager. Married and BK (before kids) sex was good but usually only on weekends. As the kids were growing before moving out, even weekends were touch and go.

Thanks to ED meds and/or constriction, we now enjoy unprotected, relaxing sex 4 or 5 days a week without any stress regarding possible unexpected intrusions. Orgasms are a little less often but you have to expect some issues with advancing age.

It was a post operation and I was sleeping very badly out of fear of bumping into her while sleeping. We sort of sleep on each other and I can be active in my sleep. Maybe that’s why my body shut off plus it could also be that I knew sex was out.

You shouldn’t be depressed or inspired. I think it’s similar to individual appetites. Some are big eaters other light but as long as your satiated that should be good enough. As long as your happy nothing else matters. I’m would think there has to be women out there with a low libido/sex not primary importance.

Sex is definitely better now and started getting better somewhere around my late 30’s into my 40’s. The primary cause was that my wife lost most of her inhibitions around her mid 30’s.

It’s continued to get better. We know everything about each other in like and dislikes and we have no need to hold back. It also helps that our youngest kid is 14 and the other two are in their early to mid 20’s. We take at least one vacation and several /weekend getaways a year just the two of us. Plus the kids are usually have there own thing going on at can be out of the house most weekends. I look forward to being an empty nester and retirement.

Late 20’s and early 30’s were a more stressful time of our lives. Kids, relocation, living with family for a time, finances, you know usual stuff called life,:-) they were stressful and privacy was harder. Wife also gained weight during that time and was insecure about her body.

Life and relationships are a work in progress, but for us it was harder in the beginning and has progressively got better.

Really hope I can keep it going at 70+. What do you mean by orgasms are a little less often?
