Patient's question:
I have recently noticed that my son is acting strangely. Previously, I used to do his laundry for him, but now he secretly washes his own clothes. When I asked him why, he didn't want to tell me. Later, he said that it seems he leaked urine while taking a nap. Then I realized he might be experiencing nocturnal emissions. Why do people have nocturnal emissions?Doctor's answer:
Ejaculation without sexual intercourse refers to the discharge of semen without sexual activity, which is divided into functional and pathological. Functional refers to ejaculation two to three times a month or every three to five days. If it occurs frequently for a long time, it becomes pathological. Male ejaculation can be divided into physiological and pathological. Psychological factors, sexual stimulation, environmental influences, extreme fatigue, and general discomfort for 2 weeks or longer without causing any physical sensation. Nocturnal emissions can also be triggered by sexual dreams, or they may be caused by the influence of underwear, bedding, clothing, and pressure on the penis. It is recommended that you seek professional medical advice for a clear diagnosis and targeted treatment.
