Is it normal for a 20-year-old to have nocturnal emissions?

Patient's question:

Hello doctor, I have been experiencing nocturnal emissions recently, which makes me very upset. I would like to consult you. Is it normal for a 20-year-old to have nocturnal emissions?

Doctor's answer:

If there is nocturnal emission, it is relatively normal for your age, as you currently do not have sexual activity. The speed of sperm production has already reached normal levels, so excessive sperm is expelled through nocturnal emission. As long as it does not exceed four times per month, it is considered normal. Therefore, it is recommended that nocturnal emission is a normal phenomenon for you at this time, and no further detailed examination is necessary. There is no other issue.
Nocturnal emission can be alleviated, but the treatment period is usually long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medications must be used according to the specific symptoms. Additionally, it is advised to maintain a healthy lifestyle and a balanced diet during the treatment period. We hope that male patients can recover as soon as possible!
