Nocturnal emission is a natural ejaculation phenomenon in males caused by sexual arousal during sleep or while awake. The following are some general management suggestions:
1. Adjust lifestyle habits: Ensure adequate sleep and avoid staying up late, as this may affect the body's normal metabolism and physiological functions.
2. Improve the sleep environment: Choose a comfortable sleeping posture and avoid pressure on the genital organs; maintain a quiet and comfortable sleeping environment.
3. Balanced diet: Consume more foods rich in zinc and vitamin E, such as nuts, seafood, and vegetables, which may help improve sexual function and sperm quality.
4. Moderate exercise: Engage in appropriate physical activities, such as running or swimming, to strengthen physical fitness, enhance immunity, and increase resistance.
5. Avoid excessive stimulation: Limit exposure to pornographic materials, including images, videos, and novels, to prevent sexual arousal that may lead to nocturnal emissions. Additionally, choose suitable underwear and avoid wearing tight-fitting undergarments to reduce genital stimulation.
If nocturnal emissions occur frequently or are accompanied by other symptoms, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly.
