Patient's question:
In the past year, I haven't had a girlfriend or engaged in sexual activity. I've noticed that cases of nocturnal emissions occur frequently. Is nocturnal emission considered sexual activity?Doctor's answer:
Ejaculation during sleep does not count as sexual activity. It generally occurs in men who do not engage in sexual activity or masturbation, and it is a normal physiological response. Under normal circumstances, experiencing it once a week is normal, and it can also occur three to four times within a month. However, if it happens frequently alongside masturbation or sexual activity, it is not normal. Additionally, exceeding the normal frequency is also abnormal.
