Premature Ejaculation defined as ejaculating before either partner achieves satisfaction. Premature ejaculation (PE) means 'coming too quickly'. It occurs when you ejaculate too quickly and without control. It occurs before or shortly after penetration. If you normally ejaculate within a few minutes of penetration (say, after only one to five minutes).

It's one of the commonest of all sexual problems. Premature ejaculation is a problem which plagues up to 36 million men if it is defined as ejaculation within five minutes. However, most men merely find PE a considerable irritation - a condition that makes them 'come' very soon after they enter their partners (say, after only one to two minutes), so that neither party gets a lot of satisfaction. According to recent survey o 15% people world wide suffered from this problem.

It often occurs early in relationships when sexual excitement, some anxiety and over stimulation are common features. It is also more common in younger men who are finding out about sexual activity and sexual relationships and men of all ages after a long period without sex. Premature ejaculation is rarely caused by any underlying disease, structural or physical problems.

* Younger men - which is not surprising, as there's a distinct tendency for it to improve with age.

* Men generally get better control as they grow older.

* However, a 2004 survey in Europe showed that middle-aged men still have this problem.

* Finally, there's no question that anxiety (or 'nerves') plays a part in many cases of PE. If you're nervous, you're likely to come too quickly. That's why many males have discovered for themselves that a small amount of alcohol eases their nerves and makes them less likely to climax prematurely. But we wouldn't recommend alcohol as a treatment!

The following are NOT typically causes of Premature Ejaculation:

1. Men are too excited to focus on bodily sensation.

2. Some men's first experience with intercourse was in a tense situation where hurrying was beneficial, like in a car, and then learned a bad habit.

3. Being so concerned about performance they didn't pay attention to their own sensations.

4. Guilt about enjoying sex or pleasure of any kind.

5. Worrying about maintaining erections.

6. Unresolved relationship issues.

7. General life stress.
