Everything you need to know about wet dreams

It's not just teenagers who have wet dreams. And that's okay.

Thanks to the feminist movement, we can almost discuss previously taboo topics regarding the female body. But while activists from different countries scold governments for expensive pads and lack of hygiene products in public toilets, and artists paint with menstrual blood, similar "male" themes remain underground.

For example, one of the four Google suggestions for emission concerns Islam. And one of the three short paragraphs on the topic in the Russian "Wikipedia" tells about the attitude to the emissions of St. Athanasius the Great.

Let's figure out what wet dreams are, and hope that over the course of eight years, visitors to women's forums have also found answers:

What are wet dreams

Pollution refers to day and night uncontrolled ejaculation without stimulation of the genitals, that is, not related to sex or masturbation.

Emissions often lead to orgasm. Moreover, many who have experienced this say that the orgasm from wet dreams is brighter than from sex or masturbation. It was like it was brain and genital sex, and they knew what to do.

It is believed that more than 80% of men have experienced wet dreams.

Most often, wet dreams occur in adolescents and are a sign of a normally developing body that gets rid of actively produced sperm.

The first emission occurs about a year after the onset of puberty.

Women also have wet dreams

And in women, wet dreams usually occur in a dream, closer to the morning. Back in 1953, sexologist Alfred Kinsey found that 20% of girls have orgasms due to erotic dreams. After menopause, the number of women experiencing such orgasms increases to 37%.

Unlike men, wet dreams are not related to the amount of sex and orgasms in daily life.

But female emissions are studied less often, since they are more difficult to detect. In men, everything is obvious, and the presence of lubrication in women during sleep does not always mean wet dreams.

In addition, wet dreams do not bother women, as they improve their well-being and pass unnoticed by others. Even teenage girls do not experience anxiety and shame, unlike their peers. And nobody is trying to get rid of wet dreams.

Why do men have wet dreams?

If in adolescents all the reasons come down to the hormonal adjustment of the body and cleansing it of excess sperm, then in adult men the reasons may be as follows:

1. Abstinence.
2. Accelerated spermatogenesis (the process of sperm formation and maturation).
3. Erotic dreams.
4. Excitement that did not find a way out during the day.

When the wet dreams are gone

Perhaps never. And that's okay.

Emissions are physiological and pathological. Physiological usually become less frequent or completely disappear with regular sexual activity or with a sufficient number of masturbations for a particular person. But if they return in adult men (up to 80 years old), there is nothing to worry about either. The main thing is that they do not cause painful sensations.

If a teenager or adult man has wet dreams about three times a week (the number is approximate, everything is individual), this is normal.

But, for example, in a seven-year-old child, wet dreams are a sign of violations. Symptoms of pathological emissions and a reason to see a doctor can also be the CAUSES AND METHODS OF TREATMENT OF NIGHT EMISSIONS:

1. An erection that occurs at night and does not subside for an abnormally long time.
2. Painful nocturnal orgasm, interrupting sleep due to significant discomfort.
3. Purulent discharge of unusual color and odor, possibly with blood.
4. Hyperthermia (overheating) of the testicles.
5. Feeling overwhelmed, lethargic.

The causes of pathological emissions can be damage to the central nervous system, diseases of the prostate gland, seminal canals, cancer problems with the pelvic organs, hemorrhoids, prolonged constipation, and so on.

How to explain wet dreams to a child

Why does he even need to know this

Sometimes feeling overwhelmed and stressed can also lead to healthy wet dreams. A 13-year-old boy is unlikely to tell his parents about a yellowish spot on his underpants or orgasm while watching a movie with the whole family.

This means that you need to warn your son about wet dreams or make the child feel comfortable asking questions about sex, body and hygiene in general. Generally, hygiene is very important here. Sperm accumulating in the foreskin or on the head is a direct route to infections.

A group of doctors and scientists wrote a long text in which they summarized scientific research on male health and came to the following conclusion for Adolescent male health:

Boys need to be instilled with the confidence that masturbation and wet dreams are not signs of perverts and do not lead to physical or mental illness.

That is, you need to tell the child about it. Aloud.

As Scientists have found Teenage Habits and Adult Premature Ejaculation, unsuccessful first wet dreams can ruin your entire sex life. The feeling of shame for spontaneous erections, the fear of being caught during masturbation will develop either into a total inability to relax, or into a real reflex, with which a man will need less than 2 minutes to orgasm.

How to talk to a child if you are desperate and uninhibited

From the age of three, you can talk with a boy about hygiene and give adequate names to the genitals. They can be called scientific language, the baby doesn't care. The purpose of this conversation is to deprive the penis, scrotum and testicles of sacredness. The child is often asked to show where the bunny's ears, nose and navel are. Pretending that the penis and testicles do not exist can cause an unhealthy attitude towards them. Including reluctance to talk about changes in the genitals.

Answer all the questions your child asks. Whatever they are. Most likely, he does not care much about the answer itself, but he must understand that he will not be scolded for curiosity.

Thanks to this, your child will not have complexes, neuroses, problems with erection and ejaculation.

At the age of 11–12, warn the boy about the changes that will occur in his body. It is not necessary to name specific dates, so that he does not get nervous while waiting: the beginning can take up to 14-15 years.

Tell the boy the truth. When his body begins to change, his body will produce massive amounts of semen. It will come out when the testicles are full. Don't worry, everything is fine. You just need to wash away in time.

If your teen has wet dreams during the day, at the wrong time, you will have to tell him about the benefits of masturbation. Explain that this can only be done with clean hands. Agree that the teenager can be alone and be sure that no one breaks into the room at the most inopportune moment. Choose what is convenient for you: from the obligatory knock on the door to the sign on it. Moreover, the sign can mean not only "Do not enter, I masturbate", but also the usual desire of a person to be alone or to sleep.

How to talk to your child if you are a believer in the virgin birth

If you are not ready for such desperate steps or you already have a ready-made teenager, then just do not wait for him to begin to withdraw into himself and snap at you. Plant him and tell him about the capabilities of the male body. Neutral, not linking information to the child.

We can say something like the following: “If the male body produces more semen than necessary, he throws it out. Sometimes on time - at night, sometimes in the middle of a lesson. This is natural and is another proof of the thoughtfulness of Mother Nature. The main thing is to wash away in time. And if this happens more often during the day, help nature with your clean hands."

And yes, this information can be told to a girl (just like menstruation can be told to a boy). This will help young men and women not to consider the opposite sex as an alien race with which it is impossible to agree.
