Erections can be fascinating when you get to understanding the science behind them. Here are seven interesting facts about the penis, erections and erectile dysfunction.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. There are three kinds of erections.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    You probably got the talk about nocturnal erections, but there are two other kinds of erections with specific names. Reflexogenic erections happen when you\u2019re getting turned on physically (think heavy petting), and psychogenic erections occur when you\u2019re fantasizing about sex or watching something that turns you on.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. You can get an erection in the womb.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Starting at just 10 weeks old, male fetuses can get an erection as their genitals are developing.<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. You can get an erection after you\u2019re dead.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        This creepy phenomenon is called \u201cangel lust\u201d but morticians know that the erection is more just a trick of gravity. As blood pools in the legs, some of it gets pushed up into the penis, causing a post-mortem erection.<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Scent alone can make you erect.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          No, it\u2019s not a woman\u2019s perfume that gets the blood pumping for most men; it\u2019s food! According to an article in the Daily Star<\/em>, researchers discovered that the scent of pumpkin pie increased blood flow by 20%, while the smell of black licorice and doughnuts boosted it by 32%.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

            \n
          1. The average man has 11 erections each day.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            Luckily, three to five of these erections are during sleep and not while standing in front of a group of people giving a quarterly update!<\/p>\n

              \n
            1. Penises are more like boomerangs than rockets.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              You can\u2019t make out the boomerang shape because the root is hidden by the pelvis. The researcher who discovered it was privy to some true insight: he was watching couples have sex in an MRI machine.<\/p>\n

                \n
              1. Most men can treat erectile dysfunction with Cialis.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                According to UK based Med Express, research has found Cialis to be 81% effective\u00a0in treating erectile dysfunction.
