What is Premature Ejaculation?
Premature ejaculation (PE) is a common sexual concern wherein a man ejaculates sooner than he or his partner would like during sexual intercourse. This can result in distress, frustration, and dissatisfaction for both partners. It’s worth noting that occasional premature ejaculation is normal and can happen for various reasons, including anxiety or excitement. However, if PE is consistent and occurs most of the time, it may require medical intervention.
There are generally two types of PE:
Primary (or Lifelong) PE: This occurs when a man has always experienced premature ejaculation since becoming sexually active.
Secondary (or Acquired) PE: This is when a man develops the condition later in life, having previously had satisfying sexual encounters without premature ejaculation.
Several factors can contribute to PE, including psychological issues like stress, depression, relationship problems, or performance anxiety, and biological factors such as hormone levels, inherited traits, or abnormal reflex activity of the ejaculatory system.
