Patient's question:
Male, currently 46 years old. Recently, he has felt a decline in sexual function, and additionally, he has been experiencing premature ejaculation within less than 2-3 minutes. He is asking: What are the factors that can cause a short duration of ejaculation?Doctor's answer:
The causes of premature ejaculation mainly include the following factors. Psychological issues are among the more significant contributors, such as poor relationship dynamics between partners, unsatisfactory sexual experiences, or a negative first sexual encounter. If a man lacks knowledge about sexual health, prolonged masturbation or self-stimulation can also be a primary cause of premature ejaculation. Additionally, certain medical conditions can also trigger the issue, primarily problems with the prostate or the urinary system, or even cardiovascular diseases. Once premature ejaculation occurs, it can be very difficult to treat. It is recommended that men take proactive measures to prevent it in their daily lives.
