Toilet question

Unread post by WiseOwl55 »

Hello a lot of the time when I’m going to the toilet for a poo I get an erection. Is this normal?

Hi WiseOwl55 -- while you are experiencing puberty, it's very common and normal to get erections unexpectedly and/or involuntarily. An erection isn’t always about arousal - sometimes it can happen as a result of friction, temperature changes (which might be happening while removing clothing to use the toilet), and hormone fluctuations, etc. Erections can be waited out and pass in a relatively short amount of time.
