Delayed ejaculation is a medical condition where it takes longer than usual for a man to orgasm and ejaculate, or he may not be able to ejaculate at all. It can be caused by psychological or physical factors and can negatively affect sexual health. Treatment options include therapy and medication changes.
Delayed ejaculation is a medical condition in which it can take longer than usual for a man to orgasm and ejaculate. Some men with this condition cannot ejaculate at all, no matter how much sexual activity or stimulation they are given. It is considered the opposite of premature ejaculation, where a man releases semen from his penis too quickly. While occasional delayed ejaculation is normal, repeated cases of the condition can be a sign of a mental or psychological issue that can negatively affect the sexual health of a man and his partner.
Ejaculation is an involuntary reaction to sexual activity. While some degree of orgasm control can be used to delay or anticipate ejaculation, most men orgasm and ejaculate after several minutes of intercourse. For men who suffer from delayed ejaculation, the time it takes to orgasm can be much longer. Sometimes it can take almost an hour before they are able to ejaculate. It is normal for men to take longer to ejaculate as they age, but taking excessive times to orgasm is never normal, regardless of a person’s age.
Many times delayed ejaculation is caused by psychological problems. One of the most common causes of the condition is stress, which is often cited as a cause of impotence and many other sexual health problems in men. If stress is the cause of the disorder, continued occurrences will only tend to make it worse as the stress increases. Sexual repression and guilt feelings can also lead to delayed orgasms. Sometimes maintaining masturbation habits that can’t be replicated during intercourse, such as extremely fast hand movements, can make it more difficult to maintain an erection or to ejaculate during intercourse. Most psychological problems associated with sexual health can be treated with therapy. Couples therapy is usually preferred.
There are also many physical causes for delayed ejaculation. Any disease or trauma that causes nerve damage can make it more difficult to achieve an erection or orgasm, as sensitivity to the region can be negatively affected. Antidepressants are often cited for sexual side effects, including delayed ejaculation and difficulty reaching orgasm. If this becomes bothersome to the person taking the medication, they can switch to another antidepressant, some people are affected by different medications in different ways. Drug and alcohol abuse can also affect a man’s ability to maintain an erection or achieve an orgasm.
