All you need to know about Premature Ejaculation

What is Premature Ejaculation (PE)?

As its name suggests, Premature ejaculation is a health condition where a man ejaculates earlier than he or his partner desire during intercourse. It is something that he is unable to control.ย About 1 in 3 men suffer from PE - a statistic that's more common than snoring.

When premature ejaculation becomes a frequent occurrence, naturally, it can cause stress to develop between a man and his sexual partner. As a result, neither party are able to experience maximum satisfaction during intercourse.ย 

The good news is that Premature Ejaculation is completely treatable, and no one should suffer in shame and silence.

Why am I experiencing difficulty lasting long in the bedroom?

Premature ejaculation can be linked to 2 issues.

  • You may have erectile dysfunction or ED which is the difficulty achieving or sustain an erection.
  • You can get hard or sustain an erection, however on penetration you ejaculate soon thereafter. This is classic Premature Ejaculation. 

PE rarely stems from a physical problem. Most of the time it is triggered by psychological factors which have remained unaddressed. Here are some of the common issues responsible:

  • Poor body image 
  • Anxiety
  • Becoming sexually active early
  • Depression
  • Relationship challenges

However, we certainly cannot rule out potential biological factors that may be in play:

  • Infection and inflammation of the urethra or prostate
  • Abnormal hormone levels
