Good morning, good morning: women also sometimes have a morning erection

Do you ever wake up completely soaked? And we don't mean from sweat? Women can also get a morning erection. Good morning, dude.

So it's really not just about a penis that you wake up horny. Women can also get in on it, especially if they had a little exciting dream.

7 times a night
According to scientists and doctors, it works like this: research shows that the labia swell during REM sleep, presumably under the influence of the same process that gives men an erect penis. The ODOL for women is therefore real. And of course, you don't see that so quickly, but you can absolutely start the day feeling incredibly horny. Another study shows that women can have as many as seven clitoral erections in a good night’s sleep, and that's why you often wake up with one.

Bio
It all has to do with that biology lesson. Because although it was long thought that the clitoris is a small button, it is actually an elongated organ. It grows when you are aroused, so it’s not just a tiny dot on your vulva. It’s more than that. And when you sleep and have exciting dreams, that organ can become sensitive, swell, and you can even orgasm in your sleep. Look, if that doesn't invite you to crawl into bed extra early tonight, then we don't know what will. By the way, this orgasm in sleep also applies to men, you know. Sometimes they don't even realize it, but they fidget a bit and are already there before it gets light outside.

You don't even need a partner: just lie comfortably in your bed and your REM sleep does the rest. Enjoy, okay? And also take those opportunities for a quiet morning to work your way to that climax. You get a nice energy boost from it. Guten morgen, sonnenschein.
