Night fall or wet dreams is a very common occurrence in men, especially in adolescents. This condition is characterized by involuntary ejaculation of semen while sleeping at night or in the early hours of the morning. The problem can sometimes become frustrating for young men because they fail to understand the reason for it and cannot discuss it with their parents or peers out of shame. The frequency of these nocturnal ejaculations may vary from person to person. Some people only experience it in their adolescent years and some people experience it throughout their lives. Frequent night falls can cause laziness, burning sensation after urination and low libido.

What are the causes?

Night fall is common at a young age when a man abstains from sex. But if they persist and become more frequent. The major causes are stated below

  1. Inability to control emotions are considered as primary causes of frequent night fall
  2. Males having sex or performing self-stimulation frequently can become prone to night fall.
  3. Lethargic lifestyle, stress, anxiety and depression may causing night fall

How can it be controlled?

  1. Exercises and jogging keep the body fit and taking a bath before sleeping relaxes the mind and aids in sleeping, therefore reducing the possibility of night fall
  2. Urination right before going to bed can help in preventing nightfall
  3. Refraining from watching porn or sexually explicit visuals before going to bed will keep nightfall at bay
  4. Reading books before going to sleep can reduce the possibility of getting wet dreams.

However, a book dealing with sensuous themes can make it worse.
