Patient's question:
I am 17 years old and have been having sex for over 2 years. Now I ejaculate after having sex for over 30 seconds. I have had thorough medical examinations at the hospital, including blood, urine, semen, and prostatitis, and everything is normal. Will I be better if I stop having sex? Do I have symptoms of premature ejaculation?Doctor's answer:
Premature ejaculation refers to the condition where a man reaches orgasm and ejaculates quickly during sexual activity before or shortly after the penis enters the vagina, without allowing the woman to reach orgasm and making sexual intercourse unable to continue. If a man ejaculates before the penis enters the vagina or before any physical contact with a partner, it is considered severe premature ejaculation. Treatment primarily focuses on addressing the underlying causes, which may include: psychological factors, prostatitis, excessive foreskin, and high sensitivity of the glans. For patients with premature ejaculation, daily treatment mainly involves symptomatic relief. They can take oral medications, supplement with vitamins, and pay attention to their diet by consuming light, soft, and easily digestible foods. Premature ejaculation patients should seek treatment as soon as possible!
