Is It Possible That You May Be Suffering From Premature Ejaculation? Learn More About It.
Among a number of problems related with the sexual
health of many men and of course
his
partner, we find Premature
Ejaculation as the most common sexual problem occurring to a
great number of men around the world; this is a pathology
characterized by a lack of voluntary control over ejaculation.
Masters and Johnson stated that a man suffers from premature
ejaculation if he ejaculates before his partner achieves orgasm
in more than fifty percent of his sexual encounters. Other sex
researchers have defined premature ejaculation as occurring if
the man ejaculates within two minutes of penetration; however, a
survey by Alfred Kinsey, (yes the inquisitive scientist of the
movie that recently showed at theaters) made in the 1950s
demonstrated that three quarters of men ejaculated within two
minutes of penetration in over half of their sexual encounters,
so there is not a precise timing we can use to define a
premature ejaculator.
Today, most sex therapists understand premature ejaculation as
occurring when a lack of ejaculatory control interferes with sexual
or emotional well-being in one or both partners. And it is known
that about thirty percent of men suffer from premature ejaculation
on a consistent basis.
Premature Ejaculation is believed to be a psychological problem
and does not represent any known
organic disease involving the male
reproductive tract or any known lesions in the brain or nervous
system. In short, PE is not a physiological problem or disease,
though it manifests physiologically by considering the organ
systems directly affected by PE, that include the male reproductive
tract (i.e., penis, prostate, seminal vesicles, testicles, and
their appendages), the portions of the central and peripheral
nervous system controlling the male reproductive tract, and the
reproductive organ systems of the sexual partner (for the purpose
of this discussion, the partner is assumed to be female) that may
not be stimulated sufficiently to achieve orgasm.
If the PE occurs so early that it happens before commencement of
sexual intercourse and the couple is attempting pregnancy, then
pregnancy is impossible to achieve unless artificial insemination
is used. Perhaps the most affected organ system is the psyche of
the partners. Both partners are likely to be dissatisfied
emotionally and physically by this problem and it can put great
stress on the relation.
The statistics of the premature ejaculation condition are as
follows:
Frequency: In the US the prevalence rate of PE in American males
is estimated to range from 30-70%.
Internationally: Estimates for European countries and India mirror
the prevalence in the United States. The prevalence in other parts
of Asia, Africa, Australia, and elsewhere is unknown.
Mortality/Morbidity: No known direct morbidity or mortality
results from premature ejaculation.
Race: No reproducible data exist on major differences between
racial groups with respect to the incidence or prevalence of
PE.
Sex: PE is a condition that only affects males.
Age: Premature Ejaculation can occur at virtually any age in an
adult man's
life but it's most common in
younger men (aged 18-30), than in older males (45-60).
