Patient's question:
I am 16 years old this year. My classmates all say they have experienced nocturnal emissions. At what age should the first nocturnal emission occur?Doctor's answer:
Boys usually experience their first ejaculation around the age of 14, but it's not the same for everyone. Ejaculation is a normal physiological phenomenon for males, and there's no need to worry excessively about it. Some may experience it around the age of 16. During puberty, it's important to pay attention to hygiene in private areas and also avoid prolonged masturbation. Long-term masturbation can affect the quality of semen. Ejaculation primarily occurs in adolescents and single adult males.
