  Hello Oxygen,
  
  Always refreshing to read your questions.
  
  Causes of dreams generally is a big subject that hardly has any conclusive answers. But you as about wet dreams, specifically. ..
  
  At puberty, the body starts producing the male hormone testosterone. leading to production of sperm. Semen can therefore build up and it is thought that one wet dreams is one way this semen gets released. This might explain wet dreams before one is sexually active.
  
  Furthermore, research has shown strong association between long periods of sexual inactivity and the occurrence of wet dreams, in people experienced in sex. This further suggests this it may be due to the high levels of testosterone that is present in males during periods of sexual inactivity.
  
  Finally please note that wet dreams are normal.
  
  Let me know if I should clarify anything further.
