Most men have experienced the problem of premature ejaculation at some time in their life. Premature ejaculation (PE) is one of the most frequent, of sexual disorders in the male and is characterized by sudden ejaculation of the semen, just prior to or immediately after vaginal penetration during intercourse (before one wishes or before he could satisfy the female partner). PE happens when a man has an orgasm sooner than he or his partner would like. PE also called early ejaculation, rapid ejaculation or ejaculation praecox or as early discharge or quick orgasm, early fall.

Premature or 'before time' in other words, is a condition where the man has no voluntary control over his ejaculation. He is quick on the trigger once he starts the coitus and unable to delay ejaculation to a point when it is mutually desirable for both the partners. Some men ejaculate during foreplay while some do so at the very entry itself. This is a very frustrating disorders of male sexual function in which man feels totally helpless.

There is no set time for how long a man should “last” during sex. But when a man has an orgasm before he wants to, he loses his erection and can’t continue with intercourse. Premature ejaculation can be frustrating and embarrassing. You may feel you don’t have enough time to enjoy sex. You may have difficulty satisfying your partner.
Premature ejaculation can happen before, immediately at, or within 2 to 3 minutes of penetration. On average most men will come within these first 3 minutes and leave the woman feeling unfulfilled. A woman usually requires a longer time for her full arousal. The stimulation of the clitoris and the uterus (and other erogenous zones) that her man provides her with after penetration is the source of her greatest orgasmic potential and satisfaction. Prolonging this mutually ecstatic experience demands of the man a cure for any propensity he has for premature ejaculation.

PE is often a psychological problem. PE can take two forms. Men can have PE from the first time they have sexual intercourse (known as lifelong or primary PE), or it can develop later in a man's life after many years without problems (this is called acquired or secondary PE)

What causes premature ejaculation?

A number of emotional and physical factors can lead to premature ejaculation. It may happen when a man becomes too excited or stimulated, or if his penis is very sensitive. It may also happen if a man is nervous or uncomfortable with a new partner. The following are the common causes:

Hormone disorder
Urogenital Infections
Neurogenic causes
Increased penile sensitivity to touch.
Sex Centre disorder i.e. hyper excitability of sex centre
Drug induced: many drug cause PE
Psychogenic i.e. psychiatric illness
Deficiency of Neuro-transmitters as serotonin

The other probable causes for premature ejaculation:

• Anxiety during the first experience of sex. Some men will develop a longer-term anxiety toward sex, which can cause a prolonged experience with premature ejaculation.
• A long period of abstinence from sex.
• Younger men tend to ejaculate more quickly than older men, as experience seems to be associated with ejaculatory control.
• Depression or anxiety or guilty feeling about poor sexual performance
• Anxiety due to anticipation of Rejection by partner.
• Anticipation of failure to satisfy his partner
• Anticipation of pain
• Adverse experiences with sex in childhood
• Religious beliefs
• Financial burdens
• Job stress
• Relationship problems
• Side effects of some prescription drugs
• Apart from psychological causes some physiological causes like inflammation of prostate gland or spinal chord problems may cause premature ejaculation.

Very common among teenagers, this level is characterized by poor masturbation habits during adolescence and preadolescence. Masturbating quickly, out of fear of being caught by someone, defeats the purpose of the ejaculatory reflex, replacing it with the need or the habit of quickly reaching orgasm.
