Nocturnal erections—erections that happen in your sleep—are totally normal. But why do you get erections during sleep?
Some explanations include:
Inadvertent stimulation from your sheets
Erotic dreams
Activity of the parasympathetic nervous system
Nighttime erections are a sign that everything’s working properly. But if you’re experiencing daytime erectile dysfunction while getting nocturnal erections, there may be something else at work—i.e. psychological issues like self-esteem, low sex drive, or sexual performance anxiety.
