What is premature ejaculation?
Premature ejaculation is a type of sexual dysfunction that occurs when a man has an orgasm and releases (ejaculates) semen sooner than he or his partner would like. It often happens before or shortly after penetration during intercourse. Premature ejaculation can be a frustrating experience for both you and your sexual partner and makes your sex lives less enjoyable. However, the good news is that it’s usually fixable!
How common is premature ejaculation?
Between 30% and 40% of men experience premature ejaculation at some point in their life. According to the American Urological Association, premature ejaculation is the most common type of sexual dysfunction in men. About one in five men between the ages of 18 and 59 report incidences of premature ejaculation.
What time frame medically defines a man’s ejaculation as premature?
Although the definition of premature ejaculation varies, the American Urological Association defines ejaculation as “premature” if it occurs sooner than desired, either before or shortly after penetration, causing distress to either one or both partners. The American Psychiatric Association defines three levels of severity (mild, moderate, severe), based on time to ejaculation, with mild being under one minute. If pressed for a time frame, many doctors would define prematurity as ejaculation within a minute of beginning intercourse. Despite professional opinions, your feelings as to what is premature are also considered.
Symptoms and Causes
What causes premature ejaculation?
Physical, chemical and emotional/psychological factors cause premature ejaculation.
Physical and chemical problems include:
- An underlying erectile dysfunction diagnosis.
- A hormonal problem with oxytocin levels, which has a role in sexual function in men. Other hormone levels that play a role in sexual function include luteinizing hormone (LH), prolactin and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH)
- Low serotonin or dopamine levels, chemicals in the brain that are involved in sexual desire and excitement.
- A penis that is extra sensitive to stimulation.
Emotional or psychological causes include:
- Performance anxiety. Could be due to the nervousness of being with a new partner, anxiousness of having sex again after a long period of abstinence, lack of confidence, guilt, being overly excited or stimulated or other reasons.
- Relationship problems.
Are there other symptoms of premature ejaculation?
No. The only symptom of premature ejaculation is the condition itself.
Diagnosis and Tests
How are the causes of premature ejaculation diagnosed?
Your urologist will begin an exam by asking about your sexual experiences. You will likely be asked:
- How long have you had this problem?
- Under what circumstances does it happen?
- How often does it happen?
- Does premature ejaculation happen at every sexual attempt?
- Does it happen with all partners?
- Does premature ejaculation occur when you masturbate?
- Do you have trouble maintaining an erection?
While the questions are personal, it is important that you answer your urologist honestly so they can best diagnose the source of your problem.
- Your urologist will also ask about any other medical conditions you may have and any medications including over-the-counter medications, supplements, and herbal products you are taking. You will also be asked about any alcohol and illegal drug use.
Are lab tests needed to make the diagnosis of premature ejaculation?
Lab tests are usually not needed unless your healthcare provider suspects that an underlying health problem is contributing to the problem.
- Management and Treatment How is premature ejaculation treated?There are many different treatments options for premature ejaculation depending on the cause. These include behavioural therapy, counselling, and medications. Often more than one treatment approach may be tried at the same time.
- Behavioural therapy
- Counselling
- Medications
- Several types of medications may be tried:
- Antidepressants
- Anesthetic (numbing) creams and sprays
- Pelvic floor muscle electromagnetic stimulation (PMES)
Weak pelvic floor muscles might impair your ability to delay ejaculation. Pelvic floor electromagnetic stimulation therapy (EMSELLA) can help strengthen these muscles.
