Patient's question:
I and my husband now want a child, but our sexual life has once again encountered problems. The foreplay is usually quite good, but every time it comes to the end, my husband always fails to ejaculate. What could be the reason?Doctor's answer:
Ejaculation failure is one manifestation of male sexual dysfunction. Compared to premature ejaculation and impotence, it represents a more severe level of impairment and requires greater patience in treatment. If ejaculation failure occurs again, it is unnecessary to panic excessively, as this may worsen psychological stress. In fact, organic causes leading to ejaculation failure are rare. The vast majority of patients with ejaculation failure are influenced by psychological factors. These are often due to: ① A lack of a scientific understanding of sexual issues, influenced by feudal, outdated, or religious beliefs. ② Exaggerating the dangers of past sexual experiences, which induces psychological stress; or excessive sexual activity, as the stimulation to the reproductive organs during sexual activity is more intense than during non-sexual contact. As a result, some individuals may develop a aversion to sexual activity, lowering their sexual excitement threshold, making it difficult for genital contact to produce sufficient arousal. ③ Disharmony in marital relationships. ④ Psychological issues
