Why do I get multiple erections during sleep?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Firstly, you will need good control of your sugar levels. It will help with the erection problem and sleep. Start a good exercise regimen and lose some weight.

Also search on the internet for Kegel's exercises and do them daily. It will help strengthen the muscles at the base of the penis and help with good erections. Also, start a good multivitamin with a lot of B-complex group of vitamins. Finally, for a few times, you can try taking Sildenafil or Tadalafil to help with getting erections.

For sleeping, you should try taking something harmless initially like Melatonin supplements, or you can try to take something which will give you sleep and also help with your stress such as Mirtazapine 7.5 or Vilazodone 20 mg which do not have any sexual side effects.

The medicines I have mentioned are usually prescribed by psychiatrists. Apart from those, you can take Melatonin 5 or 10 mg. It is available in any pharmacy over the counter and does not need a prescription. You can try taking that daily at night. Apart from that, you can try some sleep hygiene methods like

1. Maintain good temperature, no noise or light.

2. Do not watch laptop, tv or phone one hour prior to bed.

3. Avoid caffeine, alcohol or tobacco two hours prior to sleeping.

4. Avoid exercises three hours before sleeping.

5. Take warm milk at bedtime.

6. Go to bed only when sleepy and avoid other activities on bed. Use the bed only for sleeping and sex.

7. If you do not get sleep, do not toss and turn, get up, go to another room, walk for about 10-15 minutes, come back and lie down. See for 10 minutes if not sleepy go out again.

8. Try deep breathing exercises, progressive muscle relaxation techniques, yoga or meditation. It will also help.

Yes, your primary care physician can give you a prescription for Mirtazapine 7.5 or Amitriptyline 25 - 50 mg, which should help with your sleep issues.
