M en could suffer from many different forms of sexual dysfunction at some point in their lives. Among these dysfunctions, premature ejaculation (PE) is probably the most common. In the US, statistics show that at least 30-40% of the male populace is reported to be suffering from this dysfunction. Experts believe that the statistics may not be accurate since there could be more men who do suffer from the dysfunction but haven't reported it.

One of the reasons why the statistics could vary is because there is no strict criteria under which premature ejaculation is classified. Among those men who report the dysfunction, most turn out to be mistaken self-diagnoses. Some men may also be unaware that they are suffering from the condition because it hasn't been much of an issue with their sexual partners. This lack of a specific standard requires a more in-depth look at how most medical experts define premature ejaculation. This way, men can seek better modes of treatment that would best match their specific needs.

Premature ejaculation is often described as the accidental elimination of semen at an early point during sexual intercourse. Frequently, the man's partner has not reached sexual orgasm yet since the foreplay has just begun. In most reported cases, the male starts ejaculating as soon as penetration occurs. However, there are also some cases wherein the male ejaculates during foreplay even when there hasn't been any form of penetration yet.

Another reason for the inconsistency in the statistics is because some men may be embarrassed to report it. This feeling of embarrassment is often rooted in society's stereotypes about male virility. This often causes the men to refuse to seek treatment even if their romantic lives are already suffering from the condition. Lack of treatment then results in unnecessarily prolonging the agony when the state could've been addressed early on.

Premature ejaculation can also be challenging to determine because there is some disagreement on how soon is premature." Sexual foreplay usually lasts between 2 to 5 minutes. During this time, the man may employ several techniques to withhold the release of his semen, thereby delaying orgasm. However, men who are suffering from premature ejaculation usually don't last more than a minute into the foreplay. In worst-case scenarios, a man may even ejaculate within just 15 seconds from the start of sexual intercourse.

However, this shouldn't be a cause for concern if it doesn't happen that often. At least 1 out of 5 males has reported an inability to delay orgasm a few times. Premature ejaculation can be viewed as a problem if:

• In about 90% of the mans sexual encounters, he always or almost always ejaculates within less than a minute from the beginning of intercourse. This happens regardless of who his sexual partner is or if penetration has occurred or not. This eradicates the possibility that the man may be too excited to get a go at it with the sexual partner of his fantasies.
• Despite his best efforts, the man is still unable to delay ejaculation in all or almost all of his sexual encounters.
• Ejaculation occurs even if the level of sexual stimulation falls below the normal levels that incite full arousal.

This inability to delay orgasm could have adverse psychological and emotional effects. This is especially true if the condition is already affecting the man's relationship with his partner. After all, sex and intimacy are a significant factor in cultivating lasting relationships. A man who suffers from this condition could also harbor feelings of frustration, guilt, and embarrassment over his seeming lack of control.

This is why, in most treatment strategies for premature ejaculation, the medical practitioner also often incorporates strategies for handling a patient's mental and emotional health.
