COMMENTS: From the study we can conclude-
- Nocturnal erections are testosterone dependent, but wakeful erections are not.
- Supplementary testosterone given to men with low testosterone had little effect on day time erections associated with watching porn.
- Erections from watching porn or physical stimulation of the penis involve a testosterone-independent system. In other words, they depend on the brain and dopamine.
So get your testosterone checked, but realize it’s not related to porn-induced ED

Nke a bụ n'aka igbochi fibrosis cavernous, ihe ndabere histopathological maka arụrụ arụ nke anụ ahụ venoocclusive, nke ma eleghị anya bụ ihe na-akpatakarị arụrụ arụ erectile. It has been suggested that sleep-related erections are triggered by the release of nitric oxide by the nitrergic nerve fibers within the cavernous nerves. Androgens regulate this mechanism as well as some other non-nitrergic processes within the corpora cavernosa and within the central nervous system.
