How Important is Morning Wood?

I honestly dont know anything about HCG, as I am far beyond having my/any kids. I just know the effect estrogen has on me (any many others) and know it is worth considering/trying in tour adjustments

Wanted to circle up to share with others.

I started HCG about a month ago (300 IU 3x/week) and my sexual performance has improved substantially. My libido has gone up, but the change in erections has been even more notable – they’re way better. I’m also waking up with morning wood much more often.

Maybe I’m in the minority here, but I haven’t had morning wood since my mid teens maybe? I’m 32 now, honestly can’t remember the last time I’ve had it.

Same bro.

I remember pre TRT that I would rarely if ever have morning wood. Now that I’m on TRT I’ll get it occasionally. That being said, weather I have morning wood or not it hasn’t effected my sex life ( pre or post) TRT nor has it been a notable health maker for me at all. Just my .02

I do have “low” testosterone, not clinically low, but low 300’s, I’m not sure they’re correlated though.

I’m also 32 and was in the same boat. It was a very rare thing for me - always a super pleasant surprise. It’s not an everyday thing for me now, but I probably have it 1/3 of nights since adding HCG.

Mid 40’s; only started TRT a few months ago.

Pre-TRT would occasionally have MW, and I would echo the pleasant surprise comment. Pretty rare. Was a great start to the day when it happened.

I keep a daily log and MW is one item I track - and I wake up in the morning or at some point in the night almost every night now with MW. It’s an exception not to now. No complaints there!

I’ve had “all night wood” since I was 11, lol. Little hyperbolic but I rarely wake up at any time during the night or morning without the ol’ guy standing at attention. I’m 43 and sitting in the lab parking lot waiting for my 6 week draw for new TRT start. No difference in the wood before or after.

Depends on my dose. Was doing 22mg eod. No mw.

Switched to 18mg eod. Mw daily. And pde5s work better too.

Let me start by saying I have multiple sexual partners. When I sleep with one of them, I rarely wake up “in the mood” or hard. With another one, I often wake up ready to go and at least half the time end up utilizing the prepared state of my body for some morning shenanigans. To be honest, even if I don’t wake up ready, she will often get me ready and initiate play. The other partner, the one whom I usually don’t wake up ready to go with, does NOT like morning sex for a variety of reasons and as such, over the last 27 years, we have only had morning sex a few times.

So I do wonder about the learned conditioning factor here. If your partner likes to play before getting out of bed, do you wake up more often ready to go. I would imagine with many people waking up to an alarm and heading to work right away, the desire isn’t there because it would only lead to frustration when it’s not fulfilled. My partner that I tend to have morning sex with often, is someone I only sleep with 1-2 times a week and usually neither of us have work those mornings.

Just something to ponder. Perhaps some of you would wake up ready to go more often if you knew your partner would be wanting to and if there is even time for such things before you have to start your day. I just think there are variables that aren’t hormone related.
