Patient's question:
At what age is it normal for a boy to experience premature ejaculation? Our child has been experiencing this for some time, and as parents, we are very concerned. We hope the doctor can provide some advice.Doctor's answer:
Hello: It is difficult to estimate the age, as there are individual differences. Generally, after reaching the age of physical maturity, nocturnal emission is the ejaculation without sexual intercourse and is a common normal physiological phenomenon among adolescents. Approximately 80% of unmarried young men have experienced this phenomenon. Nocturnal emission during sleep is called "wet dream"; nocturnal emission that occurs while awake is called "slippery emission." The frequency of nocturnal emission varies greatly. For a normal unmarried man, nocturnal emission can occur 2-8 times per month, which is not abnormal.
