Patient's question:
Male, 33, recently feeling a bit of premature ejaculation, unable to last more than 5 minutesDoctor's answer:
Causes of Premature Ejaculation - Issues with Excessive Sexual Excitement: During the premarital stage of dating and intimacy, both the cerebral cortex's sexual command center and the sexual organs are often in a highly excited state. This inevitably leads to the ejaculation center being in a state of sexual excitement as well, reducing the response to sexual stimuli and lowering the threshold for sexual stimulation. For many men, the first time they engage in sexual activity with their partner, the sexual stimulus is both sudden and extremely intense.
