Patient's question:
A 44-year-old man has noticed that his sexual function has been declining in the past year. Additionally, he has been experiencing premature ejaculation, as he reaches orgasm shortly after penetration. Please ask: What are the factors that can cause premature ejaculation?Doctor's answer:
The occurrence of premature ejaculation is related to several factors, with psychological factors being relatively major among them. For example, modern men often experience significant stress, leading to prolonged states of high tension. Additionally, a lack of sexual knowledge, as well as long-term masturbation, is one of the main causes of premature ejaculation. Furthermore, the development of premature ejaculation is also associated with certain medical conditions, such as prostate issues, urinary system problems, or fractures of the clavicle. It may also be linked to cardiovascular diseases. It is recommended to regularly educate oneself about sexual knowledge, promptly address psychological issues, undergo physical check-ups, and take proper preventive measures.
