Morning Erections

**Rjay** · 08-14-2014, 10:30 AM

Im 4 weeks into TRT @ 50mg subq E3D and Im wondering if its weird that Im still not getting morning erections super frequently. I do get them maybe 1 in every 4 days which is better then before. I have bloodwork coming up in 2 weeks so Ill see where my hormones stand, Im just wondering how long something like that can take to return

Four weeks isn't much at all. Patience.
Too much hype about morning wood. It's not a gauge for your libido.
As long as it works when you need it to you're good to go.

Thats the answer I was hoping for. Thanks

Glad to help. Everyone thinks they should wake up with lumber. It's not that way. I rarely do but it works like a charm when requested, and that's all that really matters.

Patience.

kelkel is exactly right - morning erections have very little to do with anything libido related or ED related just as nipple tenderness does not mean gyno...but try telling this to people, lol!

I agree on the occasion I do wake up with wood it doesn't relate to any better sexual experience that evening, sometimes the days I dont my libidos seemingly higher. Interesting to see Im not the only one, as long as I get my libido to solid functionality I will be happy as can be.
I have noticed my passion for the gym has come back hard, I have to keep myself out, I havent felt this way in years and ive gained 7lbs this month, of course following a high calorie diet but being a hard gainer this is incredible for me. (A bit off topic but worth a mention

Will do, I feel like an animal when I step in the gym now, I push harder then ever and I dont get that post-gym crash I used to which would wipe me out for the day. Feels great. Thanks kel Ill definately check that out!

I actually found that my erections increased most about 12-36 hours after taking Anastrozole. Could just be me though. Iv'e been off TRT for almost 3 weeks now and hardly ever get boners anymore. Amazing how quick things go back to normal when you stop.

**Rjay** · 08-15-2014, 10:46 AM

Im trying to avoid anastrazole at all costs and will only start taking it if my E2 is seriously out of wack

Good. People are to quick to take it in many cases...

Ya, I dont have any bloating issues I actually have LESS acne then when I started, and my nipples are also LESS itchy then before. I used to get itchy nipples a couple times a week and come to think of it I haven't noticed it once in the 4 weeks ive been on T. Knock on wood but I think I am ok atm in that department hopefully when I add hcg it doesn't change that. The plan is to add hcg once I get my 6 week bloodwork

You did not mention your age......sometimes its soooooo much more than test. As for me its clock work and actually its annoying at times like peeing up in the shower when you get up in the morning! Cialis (daily small use 6 mg) also helps fyi

To me nocturnal and morning erections are good for overall penis health. I pin e3.5d and use zinc for an AI. What my journal is revealing is that when I pin on Monday night, I need to take zinc Tuesday night, and when I pin Friday morning, I need to take zinc Friday night. That's it...just twice a week.

Mine works when needed too, but there's nothing better than waking up with a rager...or just chubbed up. Penis health is good.

Even better when you wake up next to a gorgeous woman!

That's exactly what's needed for penis health!

Been on TRT one year. Morning wood once a week. Works perfectly when it needs to.

Hcg is notorious for raising estrogen

Yes, at least for me. Wouldn't need an AI where it not for HCG . Then again, the boys feeling good and properly sized is worth the it.

I would venture to say morning wood is your body's way of controlling a full bladder while you're asleep.

Tend to only have serious lumber if urinating is an urgency in the morning.

Anyone else feel this way?

**Joco71** · 09-02-2014, 06:19 PM

I'm not so sure about that. I always drink alot of water in the evening as it helps curb my evil snacking habit lol. I get up every morning and piss like I was on a 15 hr road trip. Now after 21 days on test c I still wake up every morning and piss the same way except I wait for the raging lumber to settle down first. I can live with that!!

My test rat is 54 and was suffering from ed for several years. ARR liquid 5mg Sunday-Wednesday, 10mg Thursday-Saturday has taken care of this issue. Learned this test protocol from several of the members on this forum. Mrs. test rat and my test rat thanks you for this information. Quality of life has seen a significant improvement.
