Patient's question:
Hello, my husband has been unable to last more than three minutes during sexual intercourse in recent years. Does this constitute premature ejaculation? If so, how should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello: There are no specific criteria for the clinical diagnosis of premature ejaculation. Generally, if both parties cannot achieve enjoyment within 5 minutes, it is considered a symptom of premature ejaculation. There are several causes of premature ejaculation, such as masturbation, phimosis, infections of the reproductive system, increased penile sensitivity, and prostatitis, all of which can lead to the recurrence of symptoms.Advice: It is recommended to undergo sexual function tests at a local hospital to assess your physical condition. If there are any issues, seek early treatment and care.
