Question: I dont wake up with morning erections nor do i get them throughout the day. Is this bad for penis health? I heard the the penis maintains itself by getting erections at night and during the day. I can physically get an erection but only during sexual intercourse.

Brief Answer:
no it is not bad for penis health

Detailed Answer:

Hi XXXXXXX

penis has two main functions - erection and ejaculation

if you able to have erections during intercourse then your penile function is normal whether you have night or daytime erections or not. there is no extra benefit of night erections.

it all depends on the state of mind.

i would suggest you remove any doubts about this because it is the anxiety of the person which kills the erections.

ejaculation means to throw out the semen at climax. i hope you have normal ejaculations.

best wishes
