Patient's question:
I was woken up by the need to urinate this morning, but I noticed that I had wet my underwear from nocturnal emission. I didn't watch any inappropriate videos, just looked up some symptoms of sexual arousal. Does holding in urine cause nocturnal emission? Can someone tell me?Doctor's answer:
In normal adult males who are married or have not had sexual activity for a long time, experiencing 1-2 episodes of nocturnal emissions each month is very normal and there is no need to overworry. It is recommended to relax, get adequate rest, quit smoking and drinking, wear loose cotton underwear, and increase external sexual stimulation to prevent sexual intercourse. If frequent nocturnal emissions occur again or are accompanied by other discomforts, it is advised to seek medical follow-up. For patients with nocturnal emissions, timely treatment can reduce the incidence. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should receive timely medication and pay attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods.
