    Question

    I'm 15 and I have a couple of questions:

    Is it normal for me to have wet dreams, but to have a hard time ejaculating when masturbating?

    Is it normal for me to have nipple hair three inches long?

    Is it normal for one of my testicles to sometimes hang low and sometimes not?


    Answer

    It is normal to have wet dreams and have a variable response to masturbation. There are a number of factors that would affect your ability to ejaculate including privacy, stimulation, frequency of masturbation, medication and alcohol or drug use.

    Hair and testicle movement are perfectly normal, and you can trim the nipple hair with a regular pair of scissors.
