Erection changes

I have noticed when DH nears orgasm his penis gets a bit more erect. Is this something that occurs with most men, and can someone explain the reason why it happens? Just curious I guess. He's my only sexual partner so I have no idea if this is typical of most men and I can't find any info on it.

My DH was/is my only partner as well and his penis does the same thing. In fact his whole body seems to tighten up when he is having an orgasm so I think its normal for his penis to become a little more erect too. Im thinking its normal.

When a male is about to ejaculate, the testicles will raise to the body. The penis will get super hard at the time of ejaculation. So what you notice is very normal. mac

Almost always, with very few exceptions, my erections go through a final stage of stiffening just as I am about to ejaculate. It becomes it's hardest. I assume this is common for other men.

It happens to my husband also and as some men stated here, it happens to them so I would say very common and normal.

My DH's becomes thicker, firmer and curves upwards just before he cums.

I have noticed that when my SO nears orgasm the head (he's circumcized if that matters) usually gets very large and a darker color. Also the hole in the end opens a few seconds before -- in other words it's not just a slit -- and I know for sure that he is about to cum. Immediately after he is finished, even though his erection usually lasts for a couple of minutes, the head deflates to a normal size.

Well, with me the same thing happens and I do not get fully hard until I am just about to come. Sometimes I will get it just to the boiling point and purposefully stop it, so I can have rock hard intercourse and then mentally control its release. Having had limited safe bi hand-job or oral past experiences with a few other guys/couples, I noticed the same thing others here noticed with them and also a little twitch (I use as a warning) happens in the shaft just seconds before they shoot. In my case, with (good) sex, I incessantly lick my lips, (or anothers'), my muscles tense, my breathing and heart rate increase, and I toss my head from side-to-side, getting harder and also swelling further just prior to release until I explode. I usually hold my breath during ejaculation and then I heave a huge sigh, thrashing about for nearly a minute if it's a good orgasm. For some reason, I get harder each time I cum until I get the hurtful "dry heaves," in a rare prolonged multi-orgasmic sexual tryst with a female partner. My painful record was with an ex-girlfriend... 13 times in an afternoon - something I do not recommend other guys trying and something I hope I will never come close to repeating. It hurt for a solid week, especially really burned when I urinated. My wife ususually is not multi-orgasmic, so when it's over... it's over and I also let it deflate, however, should I come twice (my magic number), I will stay hard for nearly an hour with just slight stimulation. Who needs Viagra? LOL.

I concur with the posts & have been told & observed the same that when I am about to orgasm my penis does get much much harder. I havent really thought much about it though...
