Patient's question:
A 47-year-old man has recently noticed a decline in his sexual function over the past two weeks. Additionally, he has experienced premature ejaculation. He is asking: What factors can lead to male premature ejaculation?Doctor's answer:
Common causes of premature ejaculation are related to many aspects, with the occurrence of psychological problems being one of the more significant ones. For example, some men may feel inferior, unable to hold their heads up in front of their partners, or experience work-related stress and anxiety. If men do not receive timely sexual education or engage in prolonged masturbation, it can lead to premature ejaculation. Additionally, men may have underlying medical conditions, such as prostate or urinary tract issues, or 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.
