Patient's question:
Why is it that every time I have sex with my wife, the duration is very long, and the pleasure isn't intense. It's not very interesting. When I have sex with my friends, I finish quickly. Less than a minute. Is this premature ejaculation? Do I need treatment?Doctor's answer:
The sexual activity of a generally healthy adult male typically lasts 10-15 minutes. If it is less than 5 minutes, it may be considered premature ejaculation. The best outcome is mutual enjoyment. There are many causes of premature ejaculation, such as an overly long foreskin that keeps the glans tightly covered, leading to high sensitivity; rapid or excessive transmission of nerve signals in the penis; frequent sexual activity; psychological factors; urogenital system diseases (such as prostatitis, seminal vesiculitis, orchitis, epididymitis, etc.); and abnormal hormone levels. It is recommended to visit a regular hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. There are many treatment methods for premature ejaculation, but since the condition of each patient is different, the treatment methods used will also vary. Therefore, it is necessary for patients to be diagnosed as soon as possible to receive the appropriate treatment.
