Is a short duration of male sexual activity a symptom of a disease?

Patient's question:

I am 28 years old this year. Now, every time I have sex with my wife, it usually doesn't last more than 2 minutes. This has been going on for about 2 years. I'm very worried if it's a problem with my sexual function. Could this be the end of my sexual happiness? Is a short sexual duration a symptom of a disease?

Doctor's answer:

If a man's body is in a healthy state, the length of sexual activity is not the only standard for evaluating the quality of sexual life. Generally, as long as both parties reach a satisfactory level, that is sufficient. Therefore, quality is actually more important than time. If such dissatisfaction persists for a long time, similar to the case you mentioned lasting for 2 years, it is necessary to consider undergoing a detailed examination to determine whether it is caused by conditions such as premature ejaculation or other sexual dysfunctions. In this situation, I must remind everyone not to consume drugs with significant side effects, such as "Viagra," to avoid delaying the best opportunity for treatment.
