Patient's question:
There are so many instances of nocturnal emissions in a month. What's going on? Since I've already gone through puberty, is there something wrong somewhere?Doctor's answer:
Ejaculation during sleep usually occurs after puberty. Wet dreams are a sign of male sexual maturity, known as "sperm overflow," which is caused by excessive accumulation of semen leading to ejaculation. It typically happens 2 to 3 times a month. As long as one is physically and mentally healthy, it generally has no adverse effects, but it is important to avoid psychological stress. Physiological wet dreams are more common in young and middle-aged adults, particularly those who are married or living together. Healthy, energetic men, or those who are easily agitated or under stress, may experience recurring wet dreams. This is a normal physiological phenomenon.
