Premature ejaculation

Definition of premature ejaculation

In literature, premature ejaculation is cited as "the most common of male sexual dysfunctions", a problem found among men of all socio-economic levels: so much so that for some authors, ejaculatory precocity is definable as a sort of "democratic sexual dysfunction".

But that's not all: premature ejaculation is not only the most frequent sexual dysfunction in the male world, but also the most difficult to decipher in a medical-scientific terms. It is useless to deny that premature ejaculation is a clear disorder for everyone, but at the same time very complex to define in the most correct terms: some describe it as a real physical and psychological illness, which inevitably has repercussions in the intimacy with the partner, generating embarrassing situations.

In premature ejaculation, the man is unable to maintain a certain voluntary self-control on his ejaculatory reflex: it is a problem that is strongly felt by the strong sex, since, having reached orgasm after a brief sexual excitement, the man is not more able to satisfy his own woman.

Incidence

The ejaculatio praecox, a Latin translation of premature ejaculation, represents a widespread condition in the male sphere. It is estimated that approximately 25-40% of men suffer from this unpleasant disorder. In other words, about one in three men complain of premature ejaculation problems.

Premature ejaculation during puberty

Puberty represents a particularly delicate moment, a transition phase in which the boy becomes a man. This transformation is gradual, progressive, certainly not immediate: in similar situations, the mechanism that regulates sperm production is not yet fully functional and established. In this regard, the earliest ejaculations could occur without any sperm leaking or, again, ejaculation could happen at night (nocturnal pollution).

Precisely for this reason, it would not be entirely correct to speak of premature ejaculation in those boys who have just crossed the limit of childhood.

How to establish the disorder

Given the high incidence rate of the disorder, premature ejaculation is the subject of study for many authors: unfortunately, however, it is quite complex to trace with precision the clinical criteria that perfectly frame the disorder. In other words, the way in which premature ejaculation occurs is very clear, but the exact moment in which the ejaculatory precocity can be considered is not so immediate and objective.

Some authors frame premature ejaculation in terms of thrusts, which express the coital movements useful for the achievement of orgasm; for other authors, premature ejaculation must be established considering the time between vaginal penetration and ejaculation. Objectively, however, neither the temporal parameters, nor the number of coital movements seem to be useful clinical criteria to establish, in an objective and detached way, the ejaculatory precocity, since the psychological factors that regulate the whole are not considered [taken from / /www.eiaculazioneprecoce.org/].

Despite what has been said, some authors define premature ejaculation when the male orgasm ends within 30 seconds of vaginal penetration. Others, however, venture another theory, according to which man can be defined as "suffering from premature ejaculation" when he reaches the orgasmic frenzy before the woman, regardless of "duration". This last theory should not be underestimated, considering that man reaches orgasm before woman in 50% of cases.

In conclusion, probably none of these theories could be considered really valid for framing the disorder of premature ejaculation: some men overcome the so-called "non-return ejaculatory point" already during the preliminary phase, therefore before the actual penetration; not to mention those men who already ejaculate at the mere sight of their partner in intimate attitudes.

From these concepts it is clear that it is not possible to outline an objective time frame for premature ejaculation: it would therefore be wrong to establish "right" times to complete a relationship, since this should always be spontaneous, as well as separated from rules and "limits". It is therefore obvious that, by setting preambles or preliminary conditions, man can be conditioned in a negative sense: in sexuality there should not be precise schemes, otherwise there is a risk both of consuming the relationship mechanically and of stumbling over unpleasant misunderstandings such as, for example, premature ejaculation given by the desire to follow precise pre-established rules.
