Girls, do you experience Nocturnal Clitoral Tumescence?

Most people know about nocturnal penile tumescence (better known as nocturnal erections, or morning wood), but vulva owners can experience a similar phenomenon.

Nocturnal clitoral tumescence is a spontaneous swelling of the clitoris during sleep or when waking up. Similar to the process in males, nocturnal penile tumescence, females experience clitoris tumescence or engorgement of the vagina mainly during REM sleep phase.

  • I don't necessarily get any swelling, even when I am touching my clit. However, mornings when I have time and don't have to wake up to an alarm, I do notice that I am usually horny and in the mood to touch myself

  • I don't know if I experienced. I've never heard of this before. But if it's true, I think this is not a noticeable swelling.

  • Never happened to me. Or if it did i am not aware of. But i do wake up horny sometimes
