For men, a sudden erect penis in public is very embarrassing and can cause panic. Some people also experience erections at inappropriate times, for example during a presentation in front of coworkers or when meeting with a lover's parents. In fact, maybe at that time there was no sexual stimulation or thoughts at all. The erection of the penis just happened unexpectedly. Isn't that reasonable, huh? Find out the answer in the following review.
Why does the penis get erect?
Erection occurs when blood flows towards the penis. Your penis will also fill with blood, making it look bigger, longer, and feels hard. This condition of the penis is also known as "tense" or "standing". Usually this condition will last for a few minutes and will relax on its own, either on its own or with the help of manual stimulation.
Is the penis only erect when aroused?
Because the penis is one of the sexual organs, activity on the penis is often associated with anything sexual. In fact, just like any other organ in the body, namely the eyes or heart, the penis does not only react to sexual stimulation.
Blood flow is regulated automatically by your body system. Like breathing, blinking your eyes, or digesting food, the penis can also get an erection without your control. So, although you can control the appearance of an erection through sexual arousal, your penis may also "stand up" even when there is no obvious cause such as sexual desire.
Why can spontaneous erections occur without stimulation?
The condition of an erect penis without sexual stimulation or arousal is called a spontaneous erection. Spontaneous erections can happen to anyone at any time, especially in boys who are going through puberty. In most cases, the cause is a change in hormone levels that are read by the brain as a signal for blood flow to the male pelvic area.
Spontaneous erections often occur even when a person is asleep and enters the deep or REM sleep stage (rapid eye movement). This is because during the REM sleep stage your body is producing large amounts of hormones. The brain also gives orders for blood to travel to the penis area. This is why men sometimes wake up with a hardened penis.
In other cases, hormone levels can rise at any time without your conscious control. Thus, spontaneous erections can occur while you are working, showering, driving, or even while eating. This is normal and normal, not something to worry about. A spontaneous erection doesn't mean you have lecherous thoughts or are aroused.
How to cover up a spontaneous erection when it occurs in public
When you experience spontaneous erections at inappropriate times, there are a few tricks to get the penis limp again. If it doesn't go limp, you can try to hide it. Here are the ways that you can cheat.
- Distracting thoughts. Try to think of things that are boring, annoying, or weird. For example deadline work or classmates who make emotions.
- On foot. When you walk, your body will supply blood to other parts, such as your feet and brain. The blood that had previously collected in the pelvic area will move to another place so that the penis is no longer erect.
- Covering the groin. If various methods do not work to make your intimate organs weak again, try to cover them with a jacket, book, or bag. While waiting for the penis to lose erection, find a sitting position that is safe and does not attract attention.
- Go to bathroom. Look for opportunities to go to the bathroom without being in the spotlight of others. This is the safest way to avoid embarrassment if you are caught having a spontaneous erection in public.
