When it comes to sex, premature ejaculation is a sensitive and difficult topic for many men. How long is a normal sex life? How do men know if they suffer from premature ejaculation? If this problem exists for a long time, what effects can it have on the body and life? Below we will tell you, one by one, from the time standard, the partner’s feelings, the degree of premature ejaculation to the possible consequences.
Basic criteria of premature ejaculation.
1. Ejaculation time is too short:
Generally speaking, premature ejaculation is defined as a consistently short period of time, usually less than 3 minutes, from the time the penis enters the vagina to the end of ejaculation. If this persists and the man is unable to control ejaculation on his own, it is considered premature ejaculation.
2. Failure of the partner to achieve satisfaction:
In addition to judging the time, whether the female partner gets satisfaction during sex is also an important criterion. If a woman does not experience pleasure or orgasm during sex for a long time, it may also mean that the man has the problem of premature ejaculation.
Three degrees of premature ejaculation.
According to the specific manifestations, premature ejaculation can be divided into three stages: mild, moderate and severe:
Mild premature ejaculation: Sexual intercourse lasts between one and three minutes, and the man can still jerk a dozen times during position changes or sustained movements, but has difficulty controlling orgasm, which usually requires conditioning or initial treatment.
Moderate premature ejaculation: The penis ejaculates shortly after penetration, with at most a few strokes (1 to 5) or even less than a minute, with poor control, and early treatment is recommended.
Severe premature ejaculation: Ejaculation before intercourse has really begun, or even before the penis is inserted. These cases are more serious and professional help must be sought immediately.
The possible effects of premature ejaculation if left untreated.
1. Impacts sexual function and can develop into impotence:
Many men who suffer from premature ejaculation will gradually develop psychological burdens such as nervousness, anxiety, or even fear of having sex because they have experienced several failed sexual experiences. This kind of psychological pressure, if persistent, can lead to erectile dysfunction (ED) or even impotence.
2. Impaired mental state, affecting life and work:
Some men, because premature ejaculation is not improved for a long time, will have mental depression, insomnia, lack of concentration, etc.. In serious cases, they may even have chest tightness, panic, low mood and other manifestations, which will affect the normal rhythm of life and even work efficiency.
3.Damage to the relationship between husband and wife, affecting family harmony:
Sexual disharmony can make women feel disappointed and neglected, which in the long run can cause conflicts and cold wars, and in serious cases even lead to the breakup of the marital relationship. Therefore, it is very important to face the problem in time and treat it actively.
Summary.
To determine whether premature ejaculation is a problem, one should not only look at the time, but also consider the quality of sex life and the feelings of the partner. If you find that your sex life is significantly shorter or you are often unable to control your ejaculation, it is advisable to seek professional advice or treatment as soon as possible.
