Premature ejaculation occurs when a man ejaculates during sex earlier than he or his partner would like. Premature ejaculation is a common sexual problem. Estimates vary, but almost every third man says he has faced this problem at some point.
What is the definition of premature ejaculation?
The main symptom of premature ejaculation is the inability to delay ejaculation for more than one minute after penetration. However, the problem can occur in all sexual situations, even during masturbation.
Premature ejaculation can be classified as follows:
Lifetime (basic). Long-term premature ejaculation occurs constantly, or almost, from the first intercourse. Acquired (secondary). Acquired premature ejaculation develops after you have previously had sexual experiences without problems with ejaculation. Many men feel like they have symptoms of premature ejaculation, but these symptoms do not meet the diagnostic criteria for premature ejaculation. Instead, these men may suffer from natural variable premature ejaculation, which includes periods of rapid ejaculation as well as periods of normal ejaculation.
What are the causes of premature ejaculation?
The exact cause of premature ejaculation is not known. Once thought to be solely psychological, doctors now know that premature ejaculation involves a complex interplay of psychological and biological factors.
Psychological factors that may play a role:
- Early sexual experiences
- Sexual abuse
- Poor body image
- Depression
- Premature Ejaculation Care
- Feelings of guilt that increase the tendency to rush sex.
Other factors may play a role:
- Erectile dysfunction. Men who are concerned about getting or maintaining an erection during sex may have a tendency to rush to ejaculate, which can be difficult to change.
- Anxiety. Many men with premature ejaculation also have anxiety issues, whether specifically related to sexual performance or other issues.
- Relationship problems. If you've had satisfying sex with other partners, during which premature ejaculation is rare, if ever, it's possible that interpersonal problems between you and your current partner are contributing to the problem.
- Biological causes: A number of biological factors can contribute to abnormal levels of brain chemicals called neurotransmitters.
- Inflammation and infection of the prostate or urethra
- Hereditary traits
How to deal with premature ejaculation?
There are a number of self-help techniques you can try before seeking medical help.
They include:
- masturbate 1-2 hours before sex
- use a thick condom to reduce sensation
- take a deep breath to briefly turn off the ejaculatory reflex (the body's automatic reflex during ejaculation)
- have sex with your partner on top (to let him pull back when you ejaculate)
- take breaks during sex and distract yourself by thinking about something completely different.
- If you are in a long-term relationship, couples therapy can be helpful. You will be encouraged to explore issues that may be affecting your relationship and given advice on how to resolve them. You may also be shown techniques that can help you "unlearn" the habit of premature ejaculation.
How do you know if you are a premature ejaculator?
Although the definition of premature ejaculation varies, the American Urological Association calls it "premature" if it occurs earlier than desired, either before or shortly after penetration, causing penile discomfort. one or both partners.
The American Psychiatric Association defines three levels of severity (mild, moderate, severe) based on the time to ejaculation, with mild being less than one minute. If rushing to give a time frame, many doctors would define prematurity as ejaculation within one minute of the start of intercourse.
Despite the opinions of professionals, your feelings about what is too soon are also taken into account.
How to fight premature ejaculation?
Ninety-five percent of men are helped by behavioral techniques that help control ejaculation.
Stop and start: you or your partner stimulate your penis until you feel like you are about to have an orgasm. Stop the stimulation for about 30 seconds or until the sensation passes. Begin stimulation again and repeat three or four more times before ejaculating.
Squeeze: It works the same way as the start and stop method. But when you feel like reaching orgasm, you or your partner squeeze the head of the penis until you lose your erection. Repeat this several times before you ejaculate.
Some men find that if they think about something else during sex, they can last longer.
If that doesn't work for you, you can try other things:
Strengthen the muscles: Weak pelvic floor muscles sometimes contribute to PE.
