stimulated state of tumescence

  1. release of NTT

  1. release of NTT- smooth muscle relaxation in sinusoids
  2. arterial dilation- increased blood flow into sinusodial space
  3. expansion of sinusoids- compression of emissary veins and trapping of blood as outflow decreased
  4. increase in intracavernosal pressure - rigid erection with contraction of the ishiocav muscles
