Patient's question:
I have noticed that I have premature ejaculation. I have had sexual intercourse before, but now during intercourse with my girlfriend, it does not exceed 3 minutes.Doctor's answer:
First, you need to know if you truly have premature ejaculation. There are different views on premature ejaculation, especially online where there are many incorrect opinions. The average time for male ejaculation is usually between 2-6 minutes, and the average sexual intercourse time is typically 5-10 minutes. It can be as short as one to two minutes. A U.S. study found that 75% of men ejaculate within 2 minutes. Therefore, premature ejaculation can also be considered a normal phenomenon. Don't be fooled by promotions and view yourself as a patient, using medication indiscriminately, as this could have the opposite effect.
