A consideration of premature ejaculation.

One of the more sensitive areas of discussion for men is typically that of sexual performance. The male has the stereotypical reputation for physical dominance and control,When Premature Ejaculation Is A Problem Articles and this sort of expectation can easily transfer to matters of sexual intimacy. It's sometimes, and perhaps often, believed and expected that the male should have the capacity to sexually satisfy his partner most if not all of the time. Where a male is not able to regularly satisfy his partner, a problem of some sort is often presumed.

The problem most often defined in a male that relates to sexual functioning is premature ejaculation. Though premature ejaculation is not uncommon terminology, the specific definition of what premature ejaculation is can be difficult to pin down. The best description for premature ejaculation just may be that the male, and perhaps his partner, believe the male has poor ejaculation control. This belief in itself certainly doesn't prove that a male has a particular poor ejaculatory response in comparison to other males, but it does indicate that sexual performance is a problem from that male's perspective, which is reason enough to at least give the situation consideration.

Males are sometimes curious about whether there's a specific baseline with respect to ejaculation times during intercourse. To put it another way, how quickly do men typically achieve orgasm during sexual intimacy. It's a question that may never be answered absolutely, but studies have suggested that men typically orgasm within six and a half minutes once penetration has taken place. Six and half minutes may or may not seem like a great deal of time, but it gives some indication of how realistic sexual performance expectations actually are. It should be noted that the six and a half minute range is not an absolute standard.

If a male shouldn't make it to six and half minutes before he orgasms, it certainly wouldn't qualify as absolute evidence of a problem with sexual functioning. A better standard to use, again, may be the male's own perception that his sexual functioning is abnormal. Though men can and do consider themselves as having a problem with ejaculation control, getting input from a man's regular intimate partner gives balance as to whether a problem actually exists. It's entirely possible that the male's partner may not perceive any problem with sexual functioning at all, and that the difficulty only lies in the male's self-perception.

In the event that an issue with premature ejaculation is suspected, there are a number of options available to treat the problem. Premature ejaculation is not especially uncommon, and usually responds well able to treatment.
