Suggest Remedy For Sleep Masterbation

In the last few months I ve been woken from my sleep by my husband masterbating in his sleep. I have talked to him about it and he is totally unaware that he s doing it. He says that he hasn t been having any errotic dreams and we are both baffled as to why this is happening. He s now really conscious about it and is worried about going to sleep incase it happens again. What is causing this to happen? We ve been very happily married with a very healthy sex life for 18 years.

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Such incidents are very rare. You have not given much of the details here. How many times this happened? what type of masturbation it was? Was he using his hand all the time or was lying facing down and moving his pelvic area?

When nocturnal emission happen, males do show some movements of pelvic area. If that is the case, nothing to worry and is normal. If that is not the case, please be descriptive and you may approach a psychologist.

If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this URL. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
