Patient's question:
I am 36 years old and have always had the habit of masturbation. Recently, I've noticed that I finish very quickly during masturbation. I haven't had actual sexual intercourse yet, and I'm very worried. Could this be premature ejaculation? Please ask: How much does it cost to see a doctor at a premature ejaculation hospital?Doctor's answer:
Based on the symptoms you described above, five minutes of ejaculation is not considered premature ejaculation. If ejaculation during each sexual intercourse lasts longer than three minutes, it can be classified as premature ejaculation. The recurrence of symptoms such as urinary splitting, dysuria, urinary frequency, and incomplete urination may indicate prostatitis. If only urinary splitting and post-micturition pain are present, it is recommended to visit the urology outpatient department of a larger public hospital for examination. Tests such as a urinalysis, prostatic fluid analysis, and a color Doppler ultrasound of the prostate should be conducted to rule out prostatitis. Once a diagnosis is made, targeted treatment can be more effective. Premature ejaculation can be cured, but the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, medications should be used symptomatically during treatment. Additionally, it is advisable to maintain a healthy lifestyle and a balanced diet during the treatment period. We hope that male patients can recover as soon as possible!
