Patient's question:
A 46-year-old man has recently noticed a significant decline in his sexual performance over the past six months. Additionally, each time he engages in sexual activity, it lasts less than two minutes. The question is: What are the underlying causes of premature ejaculation?Doctor's answer:
Factors that may induce premature ejaculation are influenced by these aspects. Psychological factors are relatively common, such as unpleasant experiences during past sexual activity, whether due to sudden interruptions or being startled, among others. Additionally, a lack of knowledge about sexual health, or prolonged exposure to booklets, can increase the likelihood of premature ejaculation. Alternatively, having certain physical conditions, such as urinary tract infections, prostate issues, high blood sugar, or cardiovascular diseases, can also contribute to the problem. Therefore, the occurrence of diseases is related to many aspects of life, and prevention should be approached from multiple angles.
