How to prevent wet dreams? (Please read details)?

I don't want answers saying "it is completely natural" or that I should masturbate to stop getting them.

I know it is natural to have them and that masturbation is healthy, I am not arguing this!

I have personal reasons for wanting these to stop, so I'm wondering if anyone has an effective way of preventing them from happening, other than masturbating or messing with my hormones?

    The truth is that even masturbating is not a guarantee that your wet dreams will stop, but you don't want to do that anyway.

    I have to ask: is it the actual DREAMS you want to stop, or just the mess you have to clean up?

    Most guys who have wet dreams hate them because of the mess. If it wasn't for that then they would enjoy the dream, which can be about sex or just great feelings. I guess some have had not so great dreams, or don't remember a dream at all, so the mess is just an annoyance with no reward before it.

    If it is about cleaning up, I understand because of the stickiness it is not so easy, and can leave a stain when it dries. Not just that, but perhaps the embarrassment of others seeing it or finding out that you had a wet dream is something you want to avoid.

    In THAT case, here are some "not masturbating" tips to reduce wet dream embarrassments:

    1. Wake up early, or set an alarm clock and keep hitting snooze. We all need more sleep, and surprisingly more sleep is exactly what helps wet dreams happen, since you are obviously asleep more FOR them to happen, but that they happen more toward the morning anyway. If you set the alarm it could interrupt dreams before they happen.

    2. Sleep on your back. This will help prevent the semen from getting on the sheets if you have a wet dream. Be sure to wear something, so it doesn't just drip off of you, or stick to the sheets above. Because there is not much semen and it is thick and sticky, it will not go to the sheets so easily if you are on your back.

    3. Sleep on a towel. This is in case you roll over while asleep and have a wet dream. Just wash the towel. Be sure to do it right away since the semen might soak through if you wait too long, especially if the weight of your body is pressing the wet area onto the mattress.

    4. Wear briefs under your boxers. This is if you want your best underwear (boxers) to stay safe. Because briefs hold your penis close to your body it will absorb more of the semen than the boxers, but only if you also sleep on your back.

    Hope these tips help.

    There are no methods of stopping them. Your proper solution, no matter what you WANT to hear - is to deal with and get rid of the "personal reasons" that are making you want to turn into something than a normally healthy young man. Then get on with your life.

    You could write about them. Odd, I know. Then reflex on reasons why you might be having them. Perhaps if it's something like a girl you like but are to shy to tak to, you could resolve the dreams by speaking to her? But most likely, there really isn't anything you can do to stop them or control them.

    moist objectives take place if a male doesnt ejaculate very in lots of circumstances by intercourse or masturbation. It doesnt end with age. Ever. as long as you at the instant are not ejaculating ultimately... moist objectives will inevitably take place.
