Patient's question:
For some reason recently, I've had a few episodes of nocturnal emissions, and when I wake up in the morning, I feel particularly tired. I don't know why this is happening, and I'm not sure what to do about it. Please ask: Will I still grow taller after experiencing nocturnal emissions?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation, you are now 18 years old, and the growth and development started at the age of 17. You have experienced your first nocturnal emission and still have the potential to grow taller.Advice: Generally, boys will experience a third growth spurt around the ages of 11-13, which will last for 2-3 years. Since you only started growing at the age of 17, you can visit a local hospital for a bone age test to confirm how your bone age and epiphyses are closing. If the epiphyses have closed, your height growth will be limited. If they haven't closed, you will have more room to grow taller, but the exact extent of your growth cannot be accurately predicted.
I hope this helps. For those experiencing nocturnal emissions, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may affect your health.
