Patient's question:
Patient Gender: I'm 20 years old. Why do I sometimes naturally leak semen, or even when I'm on the phone with my girlfriend, I might leak semen? My girlfriend and I haven't had sexual intercourse yet. Is this a disease?Doctor's answer:
Ejaculation without sexual intercourse refers to the emission of semen during non-sexual activities. It is a common normal physiological phenomenon among adolescents, with approximately 80% of unmarried young people experiencing this phenomenon. Ejaculation that occurs during sleep in dreams is called nocturnal emission; ejaculation that occurs while awake is referred to as involuntary emission. The frequency of ejaculation varies greatly. For normal unmarried men, monthly ejaculation can range from 2 to 8 times, which is considered normal. During regular sexual activity, frequent ejaculation or an increase in the frequency of ejaculation—such as several times a week or several times a night, or ejaculation or involuntary emission triggered merely by sexual thoughts—often indicates a pathological condition. The causes include: first, a lack of correct sexual knowledge, excessive focus on sexual issues, frequent exposure to erotic impulses, or long-term habits of masturbation; second, irritation from local lesions of the genital organs (such as phimosis, excessive prepuce, urethral inflammation, prostatitis, etc.).
