Patient's question:
I'm only 23 and just got a girlfriend when I discovered I have premature ejaculation. I don't have a foreskin and don't have a masturbation habit. My erection is fine—it gets hard even during kissing. But it's just premature ejaculation: I lose erection within a minute of penetrating the vagina, and there are no other discomforts. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Premature ejaculation refers to ejaculation occurring within one minute of the penis entering the vagina or within 10 thrusts after insertion. Whether it constitutes premature ejaculation primarily depends on the satisfaction of both partners. If you and your partner can achieve satisfaction within these timeframes and frequencies, there is indeed no need to overthink or cause unnecessary worry. However, if either of you feels dissatisfied and it affects the relationship, treatment may be necessary. Most cases of premature ejaculation are caused by psychological factors. As long as there are no underlying physical issues, it can often be resolved without medication. You may want to consult with an expert in this field.
