What Causes Ejaculation During Sleep at Night?
Disease description:
I’ve experienced ejaculation several times recently during the night, and I’m unsure whether it’s related to my frequent masturbation. I’m worried this might be causing long-term complications, and I’m especially concerned that my future health could be affected. What causes ejaculation during sleep?

Hello,
Frequent and long-term masturbation can directly affect a man’s physical health. If you experience nocturnal emissions (i.e., ejaculation during sleep) for several consecutive nights, this is likely due to *nocturnal emission* (also known as “wet dreams”). Nocturnal emissions are generally categorized into two types: physiological and pathological. Since this phenomenon has occurred for several consecutive nights, it is more likely attributable to a pathological cause—such as kidney deficiency in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)—rather than normal physiological variation.
We hope the above information is helpful to you. Wishing you good health and happiness!
