is this a pee hard on, or was he having an exciting dream?

Many men think their penises are erect upon waking because of urine buildup in the bladder, but this is false. Morning erections are technically nighttime erections which happen during Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep (when most dreaming occurs), although men older than sixty years may have them during even non-REM sleep. Generally, we experience four intervals of REM sleep per night. These spontaneous woodies in the wee hours are caused by specific neuroreflexes that are stimulated during REM sleep.
Most guys have nocturnal erections throughout their lifetime, and their frequency, along with one's awareness of them, may vary. Nighttime/morning erections can be noticeably harder or stiffer than those had when awake. The penis can stay erect for up to two hours nightly, and not all men who have erections during the night wake up with one in the morning.

It can be for 2 reasons. When you enter the rem stage of sleep you get erections during the night and in the morning. The other is because you might have a full bladder and it presses on the nerves leading to erection.

Could be both. I know I wake up with them all the time. Usually I have to pee, but other times, well a good dream usually does the trick.

most of the time it is a pee hard on but I would take advantage of the situation a work it OUT.

Any erection regardless of the journey leads to thoughts of sex and the need for some type of release :)

It is a Full Bladder pushing on the Prostate Glad. When he goes to the bathroom it will go down.

Lol. It happens to all men every morning. It's a perfectly natural biological process - stop worrying.
