Everything You Wanted To Know About Night Fall!

Nightfall 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, lesser sensation in the genital regions, burning sensation after urination and low libido. 

What are the causes? 
Nightfall is common at a young age when a man abstains from sex. But if they persist and become more frequent, they can create adverse effects upon the body. The major causes are stated below: 

1. Weak nerves, congested prostate gland and inability to control emotions are considered as primary causes of frequent nightfall. 
2. Males having sex or performing self-stimulation frequently can become prone to nightfall. 
3. Side effects of medicines like tranquilizers, high blood pressure medicines, sedatives etc. can also increase the frequency of night falls. 
4. Lethargic lifestyle, diabetes, obesity, long sitting hours, low libido, stress, anxiety, and depression affect the balance of hormones, weakening the nerves and 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 nightfall. 
2. Urination right before going to bed can help in preventing nightfall. 
3. Having yogurt twice or thrice a day can reduce the chances of getting wet dreams. 
4. Refraining from watching porn or sexually explicit visuals before going to bed will keep nightfall at bay. 
5. Reading books before going to sleep can reduce the possibility of getting wet dreams. If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can consult a sexologist.
