Patient's question:
My mental state hasn't been very good recently, and I'm not sure why. Could you please explain: What could cause having 4-5 wet dreams in a month?Doctor's answer:
Ejaculation during sleep can be a result of sexual dreams, or caused by overly warm bedding, tight underwear, stimulation of the penis by clothing, or pressure on the penis. Ejaculation during sleep can be either due to deficiency or excess, with some cases starting with excess and then turning into deficiency. Over time, deficiency is more common, or a combination of deficiency and excess may occur. Deficiency is further divided into yang deficiency and yin deficiency. The primary location of the condition is the kidneys. In cases of yang deficiency, the essence gate is not firm, often resulting from congenital insufficiency, excessive sexual activity, early childbirth, or irregular sexual habits. In cases of kidney yin deficiency, yin deficiency leads to excess fire, disturbing the essence chamber and causing ejaculation. You can use traditional Chinese medicine formulas such as Liu Wei Di Huang Wan (Six-Ingredient Rehmannia Pill) and Jin Suo Gu Jing Wan (Golden Lock Firm Essence Pill) to nourish and support your health, while also ensuring adequate rest. Consume more foods that have the effect of tonifying the kidneys and consolidating essence.
