Erections when sleeping

Hi

Iā€™ve noticed that I only get erections when Iā€™m asleep, and Iā€™m trying to understand what this means. Since we had a child, our sex life has declined significantly. Iā€™ve tried Viagra, but it gives me terrible headaches. The strange thing is, during sleep, I have very strong erections, but of course, my partner is asleep then. I believe this could be related to my depression and anxiety. What can help me in this situation? Iā€™ve even been thinking about the possibility of a penile implant.

This is exactly what I experience. See that this is a good sign since it proves thereā€™s nothing wrong with you physically. In that sense you need no physical interventions. I too have this but on occasion when Iā€™m then awake and thinking about stuff - I canā€™t stay hard. Iā€™ve also tried various ED medications - they can help but you need to try a few. Cialis I found donā€™t give me the headaches and itā€™s also a slower burn so you arenā€™t in a mad rush to try sex before it wears off. Iā€™ve also found, however, if my mind just isnā€™t into sex then the drug wont work - it still needs you to feel aroused. The take away from what youā€™ve said is to see the positive as Iā€™ve tried to do - thereā€™s no physical issue - this might help you to stay focused on the emotional side of things and working on that.

Hi and thanks for you reply. Can I ask if you discussed this with your partner ? Iā€™m in two minds as Iā€™m a bit embarrassed.
