Patient's question:
53-year-old male, recently noticed a decline in sexual function, and he ejaculates within less than 2-3 minutes. What are the underlying causes of premature ejaculation?Doctor's answer:
The causes of premature ejaculation may be related to these factors, with psychological issues being one of the main ones. Men may experience premature ejaculation during sexual activity if they are forced to interrupt, startled, or disturbed by external factors. It could also be due to a lack of sexual knowledge in the patient, as prolonged exposure to videos can trigger premature ejaculation. Additionally, certain medical conditions can also be a contributing factor, such as prostate diseases, urinary tract infections, pelvic fractures, or high blood sugar levels. The causes of premature ejaculation are not singular, and it is essential to understand them to prevent it correctly.
