Patient's question:
I am 14 years old and male. I just woke up this morning and experienced nocturnal emission, and I'm worried and scared that I won't grow taller anymore. I am currently 162 cm tall. I don't know how tall I will eventually grow. How much do you grow taller each year after nocturnal emission?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on the situation you described, it is preliminarily considered that nocturnal emissions will not affect normal growth and development. After nocturnal emissions, you must pay more attention to local hygiene. It is recommended that you exercise more regularly, such as running, swimming, playing basketball, etc. You must also eat more foods rich in protein and calcium. Avoid overworking and excessive strain, and develop a good lifestyle.
