Wet DreamsIt is completely a myth to believe that wet dreams, otherwise called nocturnal emissions, are sinful. During puberty, such dreams are completely normal while in sleep. It is not necessary to think that you have become a sex addict. The wet dreams are not orgasms that ejaculate after a sexual intercourse. They are a normal healthy process, which both boys and girls experience during puberty. Even if anyone has not experienced wet dreams during puberty, there is no need to get worried about. There is a possibility that the boys might fail to notice it, as it gets dried up very quickly and leaves only a small yellow stain on your bed or your vests. In girls, it is often a matter of confusion, since the vaginal wetness can be caused due to the lubrication also and not necessarily an orgasm or nocturnal emission.

From the medical point of view, the nocturnal emissions or wet dreams are a result of rapid eye movement during sleep. In this sleep phase, the blood circulation is too high, causing intense brain activity. In boys, it leads to the collection of excess semen in the testicles, which automatically gets released during wet dreams.

The religious view on the nocturnal emissions or the wet dreams are not negative. Since it is a normal sleep activity of the adolescents, it is not considered impure. However, some there are some cultural beliefs that say it is necessary to take bath after such emissions. It should be noted that they are treated similar to menstruation and sexual intercourse.

It is only the social view of the nocturnal emission that is not so positive. This is due to the wrong understanding of the nocturnal emissions. It is often perceived that the adolescents experiencing wet dreams are causing it due to increased sexual arousal. The act of masturbation and wet dreams are often confused as one. The individual, parents and society must understand that such emissions are only the process of releasing the excess semen stored in the testis.
