Sometimes I will rub one off in the morning shortly after I wake up and I have noticed that my orgasms are different than when I masturbate during any other time of day.  The only way to describe it is the feeling isn’t as intense and consequently not as pleasurable.  Do you have any explanation for why this might happen?

Thanks in advanced

No, not really, betterman4u,
considering that testosterone levels are highest between 4-8am in most men. Hence, you should really be able to feel those orgasms when you do wake up.

Many things can influence intensity of orgasm. Being really, really tired, hungry, thirsty, hung over, depressed, angry...everything will affect your sexual feelings. As to why this happens to you specifically during that time, I have no idea.

If it's a source of distress, please see a physician. There could be something going on that you're not aware of, healthwise.

Similarly, I have a difficult time getting off in the early AM with hand job.  I am in the mood it just seems like I'm still partly asleep down there.  

With sex I can do OK, but my orgasms are much more intense later in the day, especially in the evening.

Never smoked, no drugs (unless you count Diet Pepsi..I'm hooked!).

I have *never* enjoyed sexual stimulation in the morning.  Why?  Because my body is simply numb, I don't feel much of anything in the morning.  Not because anything is wrong with me, but because I'm simply not a morning person at all.

Yes, nearly every morning I wake up fully "erect," but I know from experience that "rubbing one off" will simply be unfullfilling to me, and I just wait later on in the day/night when my body is "fully awake."

You and I may be in the minority in this b/c practically everyone I knows loves to either masturbate or have sex in the morning.  Not me, I just want my coffee so I can wake up.  Just to give some perspective, I hit snooze at least 2 or 3 times in the morning before I finally get up.  I am just not a morning person.

Oh btw, I'm not a smoker, no drugs, I see my doctor regularily, recently had *many* tests done and found to be 100% health, normal cholesterol, normal blood pressure.

It's just the way I'm built.  *shrugs*

I wake up with a big boner everyday.
Masturbating in the morning is like drinking coffee. I start my day with one cup of each.

when a woman watches me do it it's best.

I can give a hearty "me,too." I'm so thankful for this thread because I've always wondered why despite being rock hard in the morning, sensations are more numb and orgasm is more difficult. Obviously, it's not so uncommon. What surprises me is that in all of the some 30 years that I've been reading sexual literature, I have never ONCE read anything about this phenominum. The good thing is that I can fuck for a long time, but it either takes too long to cum or I just don't cum.
