So started my 6 months of HT in November 24, with second jab in February. RT went well in March.
Was told by the medical team that I should start getting back to normal about 9 months after treatment started. So here I am in month 10:
The only remaining side effect is a bit of a strange one, I keep waking up in the middle of the night with an erection (never have done previously). I appreciate that this is a 'problem' that many might like to have, but does anyone know if this is common (and is it likely to go away)?
Hello Agent99
"Morning Wood" or "Morning Glory" is quite common in a healthy male and it's nothing to worry about. Your testosterone is returning and it's letting you know.
I had 3 years on Hormone Therapy and to be honest my sex drive went on holiday. I came off HT in December 2024 and I woke up one morning in February with an erection - happy days! 
!!
(A healthy man can have up to 5 erections per night during REM sleep!!).
Sorry to say, you are just a normal bloke!!
Best wishes - Brian.
