Patient's question:
Doctor, I'd like to ask about nocturnal emissions during naps. I'm asking for my son as well. He's 16 years old, and he's had two nocturnal emissions while napping at night. Is this a normal phenomenon during puberty, or is it abnormal?Doctor's answer:
Dear consultant,It is normal to experience two episodes of nocturnal emissions during this period, which is the stage of puberty. Some sense of guilt may arise, primarily due to physiological changes. You may have thoughts about the opposite sex, which are influenced by sexual hormones. It is important to face these feelings without being too anxious or upset. It would be best if family members could talk to the child and provide sexual health education. Currently, focus on studies, and try not to dwell on other aspects.
