Patient's question:
A friend's child is 15 years old this year. According to her, the child has experienced the physiological phenomenon of nocturnal emission. Will a teenage boy still grow taller after nocturnal emission?Doctor's answer:
Boys are in their adolescence, and nocturnal emissions indicate that their bodies are growing and developing. Therefore, boys can still grow taller after experiencing nocturnal emissions, so there is no need to worry. It is important to maintain a positive mindset and pay attention to increasing nutrition, consuming more high-protein foods, getting enough sleep, and engaging in appropriate exercise. The period of fastest height growth occurs after entering puberty, and height is generally fixed around the age of 18 to 20.
