Im a 25-year-old male, weighing 40 kg, and Ive been dealing with something that's been really bothering me. Every night, I find myself experiencing nightfall, with sperm leakage while I sleep. I also have a problem with urinary incontinence. After I use the bathroom, even when I think I've finished urinating, a few drops just come out without me noticing until it's too late. Im having a hard time controlling myself when I feel the sudden urge to urinate. Can you help me understand what might be going on?
