Is it normal to have semen discharge during sleep?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am a 28 year old male. I am frequently ejaculating semen unknowingly while sleeping. It occurs at least twice in a month. I had siddha medicine a year before and it showed some improvement too. But, I discontinued. Now, I am not getting proper sleep. My left hand is trembling some time. Kindly suggest a medicine.

kindly help,

Thank you.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am not married yet. Yes, still two years back, I used to do masturbation once in two weeks, but now I am not doing. I do will sleep to the maximum of three to five hours a day. I do not have a sound sleep for eight hours. If I am alone, then I will be having mood swing.

please help,

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

  1. Your history is within normal limits and does not indicate any pathology.
  2. Nightfall, twice a month, is completely normal. Night erections and occasional ejaculation are not abnormal because semen used to come out either by sex, masturbation or nightfall.
  3. When you indulge in a sexual relationship and start having sex, it will improve; there is no need for any treatment.

For further information, consult a sexologist online.

I hope I have answered your question.

Let me know if I can assist you further.

Thank you.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Thank you for the reply.

Also, I need a few more clarifications. When I see an adult picture, I will immediately get wet.

  1. Why is it so?
  2. Is my penis very sensitive?

Recently, I checked my sugar levels and BP. Both were normal. Please share your suggestions on this.

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

  1. It is absolutely a normal phenomenon. In fact, it is a sign of better sexuality, as the secretion implies your willingness and normal physiological response towards having real sex.
  2. It will help in the future with penetration, as many people who are suffering from dryness have to use a lubricant for penetration.
  3. Nevertheless, you can keep yourself busy and distract yourself from sexual thoughts to avoid this.

For further doubts, consult a sexologist online.

I hope I have answered your question.

Let me know if I can assist you further.

Thank you.
