Patient's question:
Is the duration of premature ejaculation the time of continuous, rapid thrusting alone after entering the vagina, or the time of gentle movements during intercourse, or the time including foreplay? Are these three differences significant? The difference between continuously thrusting after exiting and the other two is substantial. What are the common reasons for frequent premature ejaculation?Doctor's answer:
Premature ejaculation refers to the time after the penis enters the vagina. For adults, it is about 3 minutes, which should be considered normal. The foreplay you mentioned does not count as sexual activity time. The main reason should be related to psychological factors, possibly indicating nervousness. Additionally, it can be regulated with appropriate Chinese herbal medicine. For premature ejaculation patients, timely treatment can reduce recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and pay attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods.
