Premature Ejaculation help newbook

Premature ejaculation (PE) is a condition in which a man ejaculates earlier than he or his partner would like him to.

Premature ejaculation is also known as rapid ejaculation, rapid climax, premature climax, or early ejaculation.

The most common definition is that premature ejaculation occurs if the man ejaculates within two minutes of penetration;however, a survey by Alfred Kinsey in the 1940s demonstrated that three quarters of men ejaculate within two minutes of penetration in over half of their sexual encounters.

Premature Ejaculation can be differentiated between two types.

Premature Ejaculation can be further divided between; Global Premature Ejaculation, which occurs with all partners and in all contexts and Situational Premature Ejaculation which occurs in certain situation or with specific partners.

Most men experience premature ejaculation at least once in their lives. Likewise men with higher IELTs may consider themselves premature ejaculators, suffer from detrimental side effects normally associated with premature ejaculation, and even benefit from treatment.


Mechanism of Ejaculation

It involves deposition fluid from the ampullary vas deferens, seminal vesicles, and prostate gland into the posterior urethra.The second phase is the expulsion phase.

It is believed that the neurotransmitter serotonin (5HT) plays a central role in modulating ejaculation. Several animal studies have demonstrated its inhibitory effect on ejaculation.

This theory is further supported by the proven effectiveness of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), which increase serotonin level in the synapse, in treating Premature Ejaculation.


Sympathetic motor neurons control the emission phase of ejaculation reflex, and expulsion phase is executed by somatic and autonomic motor neurons. In one study, ninety-one percent of men who have had premature ejaculation for their entire lives also had a first-relative with lifelong premature ejaculation.

Other researchers have noted that men who have premature ejaculation have a faster neurological response in the pelvic muscles. Simple exercises commonly suggested by sex therapists can significantly improve ejaculatory control for men with premature ejaculation caused by neurological factors.
