Increased Morning Wood, Placebo or Progress?

I PE again (had to rest because I overtrained) on Sunday. (6 days ago now), For the last couple of days I feel like I've had more morning wood and it's also harder than usual. Like yesterday morning it was raging so hard it found it's way through the hole of my boxers. Again I had it this morning so bad I couldn't fall asleep again because of it (kind of uncomfortable to be hard when I'm just trying to sleep lol).

It also hasn't only been mornings though, I've woken up at around 3-4 AM to pee a couple of times this week (trying to stay hydrated for muscle gains, makes me need to pee all the time), and even then I was super hard. Made it very hard to pee lmao.

Is this just a placebo to where I'm making myself believe I'm getting them more often and harder, or is this a sign of progress.

Strong morning wood is generally considered a positive indicator.

I find that when I over train morning wood suffers, but once I find that prefect level morning wood is as you describe.
