Premature ejaculation is the most common sex complaint reported by most adult men. This is evidenced by a study from the Drug Discovery Today Journal in 2016 which states that around 20-30 percent of men in the world experience premature ejaculation. Various studies have also reported that 1 in 3 men in the world have ejaculated too quickly at least once in their lifetime.
Actually, how fast does semen have to come out to be able to say premature ejaculation?
How long can a man hold until he ejaculates too quickly?
Premature ejaculation is an unwanted orgasm that occurs too quickly, either before or shortly after sexual penetration. Orgasm in men is characterized by the discharge of semen, which is the goal of sexual activity in general. Premature ejaculation can even occur during masturbation.
Actually there is no specific deadline for a man to pass to reach the "finish line" after sex. Every man has an orgasm that varies, depending on the situation and conditions at that time. The average time it takes a man to ejaculate normally takes about 4-5 minutes, says Andrew C. Kramer, MD, a urologist at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in the United States.
However, most health experts interpret the timing of premature ejaculation usuallyin just 30-60 seconds or less than two minutes after penetration. Premature ejaculation is also characterized by orgasm that occurs even after minimal sexual stimulation.
Premature ejaculation can make sex feel unsatisfactory for both partners, which in turn can extinguish long-term sex drive.
Premature ejaculation can be accompanied by erection problems
Premature ejaculation is one of several sexual problems that men often complain about. The problem of ejaculating too quickly can also occur together with erectile dysfunction, aka empotence, although this is not always the case.
Erectile dysfunction can occur at any age, but mostly occurs in men aged around 60 years and over. Meanwhile, premature ejaculation is generally experienced by young men.
Can this condition be treated?
Please note that the problem of ejaculating too quickly can have a variety of causes. Starting from psychological problems such as low self-esteem, stress, and even being too excited to make love. Premature ejaculation can also be caused by a disease in the body such as hypertension, diabetes and heart disease, although this is relatively rare.
That's why it's actually difficult to be able to determine which specific causes your premature ejaculation; whether it is caused only by psychological factors, problems with the structure of the penis, or even a combination of both.
So, treatment for premature ejaculation usually involves combination therapy such as routine counseling with sex therapists and certain drugs. The types of drugs commonly used to treat ejaculation are similar to antidepressant drugs, such as Paxil (paroxetine), Zoloft (sertraline), and Prozac (fluoxetine).
If needed, a sex therapist may also suggest that you and your partner delay sex for a while until your ejaculatory ability recovers.
In addition, there are several other home methods to help men prevent premature ejaculation, such as special masturbation techniques and Kegel exercises so that orgasms are more controlled.
