Morning erection is a good indicator of penile health but its absence does not necessarily indicate abnormality. Severe anxiety , smoking . obesity can lead to this so take care of these factors , in case you have any. Masturbation will not cause erection on self touching . You can try to sleep for 7 hours a day with SSRI like Paroxetine
