What Causes Nocturnal Emissions?

default
Posted on Mon, 28 Jul 2014
Question: I am 38 years old 164 cm tall n weight 64.5 kg but suffering from frequent nightfalls since last 2 years , even a day after having sexual intercourse I face nightfall at times, sply 100% whenever I take milk at night. Is milk taken at night causes nightfall? It also seems that my body doesnt hold semen for long time, after 4 - 5 days semen starts coming out during routine fresh up in morning. I don't feel weakness but guilt. I have quit non veg food , avoids spicy oily food , don't smoke n drink neither suffers from diabetes , don't watch porn. Pls help. Please.. as despite consulting a few doctors no improvement is seen.

Hello
Thanks for choosing wwwhealthcaremagic
Nocturnal emission is a normal event during REM phase of sleep. it is associated with dreams, erection of penis, increased heart rate , respiratory rate, and rapidly moving eye balls. Seminal vesicles and prostate produce seminal fluid continuously so discharge can never result in deficiency. it is a normal secretion of body like saliva or lacrimal secretions ( tears) so it's loss can't produce weakness. What you are experiencing is due to surge in testosterone which is not in voluntary control . you can only control your guilt after knowing the facts. so relax and stop worrying about it. still there are medicines which can suppress it if a embarrassing situation is anticipated .

Though many said that milk at night has no role in it but why its so particular in my case?

Sir please suggest those medicines and also their side effects if any along with precautions. I need to have something to stop it as its been very long and real embarrassment for me. Thanking you ,

Regards

Brief Answer:
Milk has nothing to do with nocturnal emission

Detailed Answer:
hello
it is a myth that milk has any thing to do with this.Probably common colour was the reason for such belief. Adopt healthy life style with high protein diet, moderate exercise and no drugs. Yoga is helpful .
