Causes And Solutions To Premature Ejaculation

According to statistics, as many as 30% of men ejaculate prematurely during sex, making premature ejaculation one of the most common sexual dysfunction a man can experience.

Sex therapists have found that lack of ejaculatory control can diminish a man’s self-esteem and lead to decreases in sexual and emotional satisfaction in both men and women.

Since ejaculatory control is not an innate skill but rather a learned behavior, most men will experience premature ejaculation at least once in their lives.

However, frequent occurrences of premature ejaculation, as well as the resulting emotional distress they cause, should not be ignored.

Not dealing with premature ejaculation leads many men to avoid sex altogether rather than risk the shame and humiliation of inadequate performance. These feelings of embarrassment and self-doubt exacerbate the premature ejaculation problem, sending men further down the spiral of anxiety and depression.

Premature ejaculation causes

To understand the causes of premature ejaculation, researches have studied both physical and psychological factors. For example, a recent psychological study found that clinical depression, stress, and lack of self-esteem directly contribute to cases of premature ejaculation.

In terms of physiological causes for premature ejaculation, one study found that genetics may play a role in a man’s sexual performance. Over 90% of men in the study who suffered from premature ejaculation had a parent and/or grandparent who also reported a lack of ejaculatory control. Researchers also found that men who suffer from premature ejaculation tend to exhibit a faster than average neurological response in the pelvic muscles involved in delaying an ejaculation.

Pelvic exercises to solve the problem

While sexual inexperience and performance anxiety certainly lead to premature ejaculation, these can be alleviated through more sex (certainly something we support!).

However, there are exercises you can do right now that can help put you back in control of your ejaculations. Exercises that strengthen the pubococcygeus (PC) muscle, or pelvic floor, can make it easier for you to delay orgasms and ejaculation.

You may have heard of a popular pelvic floor exercise call Kegels, which involves flexing the PC muscle to build strength. Other such exercises are described in the Penis Health database on PenisHealth.com.

With patience and practice, you can leverage these exercises to overcome premature ejaculation and put this embarrassing problem behind you.
