What is nocturnal emission?

Patient's question:

Doctor, good morning. When I woke up this morning, I found pre-ejaculate on my underwear. I haven't had any sexual activity, but why would there be pre-ejaculate? I looked it up online, and it said it's nocturnal emission. I want to know what nocturnal emission is and what aspects of treatment need to be understood.

Doctor's answer:

As an adult male, experiencing an occasional nocturnal emission without sexual activity is a very normal physiological phenomenon. Usually, nocturnal emissions are accompanied by wet dreams, which are simply the result of the subconscious mind having encountered sexual stimuli in daily life. During the process of nocturnal emission, one can also experience the sexual pleasure of ejaculation. However, if it occurs frequently, it may indicate a problem. It is necessary to visit a urology department for a check-up.
