Occasional nightfall can still happen at this age and is usually not harmful, but foreskin itching may suggest irritation, fungal infection, or diabetes related changes and should not be ignored.
Occasional nightfall/semen release can happen even at this age and is usually not harmful. The foreskin itching is more suggestive of a local fungal infection, irritation, diabetes or poor hygiene. Keep the area clean and dry, avoid harsh soaps, and avoid scratching.
You should get checked for blood sugar/diabetes and consult a physician or urologist/skin specialist if there is redness, white discharge, swelling, pain, burning during urination or persistent itching. Treatment depends on the exact cause after examination.
You didn't mention whether you are married or not and also whether you have any means of natural release of semen by sexual intercourse.
You should consult a General Physician or a Dermatologist in your area for a local examination.
"At the age of 50, experiencing nocturnal emissions (nightfall) along with itching on the foreskin is not very common and needs a clinical evaluation. Itching on the foreskin is most often a sign of Balanitis (a fungal or bacterial infection), which is frequently seen in individuals with high blood sugar levels. Nightfall at this age can sometimes be related to prostate health or hormonal changes. It is important to rule out diabetes, as sugar in the urine can promote fungal growth and itching in the genital area
Next Steps
Genital Hygiene: "Clean the area under the foreskin daily with only lukewarm water. Avoid using scented soaps or body washes, as they can further irritate the skin."
Keep it Dry: "Fungal infections grow in moisture. Ensure you dry the area gently but thoroughly after bathing or using the washroom."
No Self-Medication: "Do not apply any over-the-counter steroid creams, as they can make a fungal infection much worse if not used with an antifungal agent."
