Is It Normal to Have an Erection When Waking Up?

I always get an erection almost every morning when I wake up. Is this normal?

Yes, it's completely normal to have an erection when waking up in the morning. In fact, guys often have about 3 to 5 erections each night while they sleep — they're just not aware of them.
