What Causes Increasingly Erections In Nights?
I have been catheterised because of enlarged prostate. I am noe starting drugs to reduce the gland but I expect to be catheterised for at least a couple of months. After about 3 weeks, I am increasingly getting erections at night which disturb my sleep. Is it safe to gently relieve these?

Hello,
The erections could be due to the sexual urges you are having which cannot be fulfilled due to catheterization. Therefore, I suggest talking to your urologist.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
