Introduction
Sexual problem, or sexual dysfunction, refers to a problem during any phase of the sexual response cycle that prevents the individual or couple from experiencing satisfaction from the sexual activity. The sexual response cycle has four phases: excitement, plateau, orgasm, and resolution.
While research suggests that sexual dysfunction is common (43% of women and 31% of men report some degree of difficulty), it is a topic that many people are hesitant to discuss. Fortunately, most cases of sexual dysfunction are treatable, so it is important to share your concerns with your partner and doctor.
What Causes Sexual Problems?
Sexual dysfunction can be a result of a physical or psychological problem.
- Physical causes: Many physical and/or medical conditions can cause problems with sexual function. These conditions include diabetes, heart and vascular (blood vessel) disease, neurological disorders, hormonal imbalances, chronic diseases such as kidney or liver failure, and alcoholism and drug abuse. In addition, the side effects of certain medications, including some antidepressant drugs, can affect sexual desire and function.
- Psychological causes: These include work-related stress and anxiety, concern about sexual performance, marital or relationship problems, depression, feelings of guilt, and the effects of a past sexual trauma.
What is premature ejaculation?
Premature ejaculation describes the condition where a
man ejaculates (or comes) too soon. Sometimes this happens even before any
direct stimulation of the penis occurs. Just thinking about a sexually
stimulating situation can trigger ejaculation. However it is more common for
ejaculation to occur either during or very soon after penetration.
Just how soon is too soon?
There is no universally accepted definition of
premature ejaculation. Studies have shown, that ejaculation often occurs
within two minutes of penetration. Some men last much longer and some
ejaculate much quicker. The important point to remember is that if
ejaculation occurs sooner than the man and his partner wishes and this is
causing distress in the sexual relationship, then, it can be regarded as
‘premature’ or ‘rapid’. Partners’ wishes must always be taken into account;
what the man considers premature his partner may not.

How common is premature ejaculation?
Premature ejaculation is one of the most common
sexual problems affecting men. Most men will experience premature
ejaculation at some time. It can become a problem when this situation is
repeated in most sexual situations. Studies have shown that it is highly
prevalent across all socio-economic groups and more than 40% of men are
affected.
At what age does premature ejaculation occur?
Premature ejaculation can occur at any age and under
any situation, but it is more commonly a problem for the younger man. The
occurrence of premature ejaculation is more related to the novelty of the
sexual experience (new partner or different situation) than to the man’s
age.

What causes premature ejaculation?
There are some conditions that may interfere with the ejaculatory process, such
as changes in the prostate gland, arteriosclerosis, diabetes and neurological
disorders, but most cases are caused by failure to control the ejaculatory
response. Early pioneers of sexuality studies believed early sexual experiences
were important in the shaping of future ejaculatory habits. They thought that
because of initial nervousness and haste, unsatisfactory early sexual
experiences would ‘programme’ a pattern of learned rapid ejaculation later on (a
form of negative conditioning). Inappropriate venues and circumstances e.g.,
backseats of cars, fear of discovery and one-night stands may contribute to
establishing a pattern of rapid ejaculation.
Psychosocial events that may contribute to premature ejaculation include:
Partner’s
illness
Occupational
stress/financial stress/shift work
Family
problems/elderly relatives/bereavement/children
Guilt/Sexual
orientation
Lack of
experience/opportunity
Poor
housing/overcrowding
Performance
anxiety/fear of failure/expectations
Lack of
sexual/interpersonal skills
A common reason for premature ejaculation is relationship disorders. Some of the
components of relationship distress are: sexually demanding partners,
unrealistic expectations, discrepant needs and desires in a relationship,
dissatisfaction, lack of communication and trust, and affairs, partners who also
have a sexual dysfunction, and an excessive desire to please a partner.
Derogatory remarks made at the time tend to make matters worse and can lead to a
cycle of failure and anxiety.

How can I overcome premature ejaculation?
Many men can be helped to delay ejaculation, using
self-help methods, but some may require the help of an expert practitioner.
Always discuss the problem with your partner first, to find out what their
needs and wishes may be. A simple self-help method that can be effective is
called the ‘stop/start technique’. This can be done either by the man alone
or with his partner whichever is preferable.
Step 1:
Gradually start stimulation of the penis, stopping just before you think you
are about to ejaculate.
Step 2:
Rest, no stimulation for 30-60 seconds.
Step 3:
Begin stimulation of the penis again, stopping or reducing stimulation until
the probability of ejaculation has passed.
Step 4:
Repeat above steps four or five times, until you begin to recognise the
point of ejaculation. Allow ejaculation to occur.
This masturbation technique can be modified for intercourse, and is called
the squeeze technique. The partner firmly squeezes the penis where the glans
joins the shaft. Use the thumb and forefinger and squeeze immediately before
the point of ejaculation. The sensation of impending ejaculation will
subside; there may be some reduction in the degree of firmness of the
erection, until stimulation begins again. A considerable commitment is
required from the couple for these techniques to have any chance of success.

Do ‘delay sprays’ work?
There is no evidence to suggest that they do work, or
that they don’t. Delay sprays, which are local anaesthetic sprays, may reduce
the sensitivity of the tip of the penis but may interfere with the recognition
of ejaculation. There is also the possibility of transferring the anaesthetic
compound to the partner, thus reducing pleasurable sensations. Should you decide
to purchase any of these sprays, condom use is advised.
What if I cannot overcome the problem myself?
No drugs have yet been licensed for the treatment of
premature ejaculation. Indications suggest that some anti-depressants may be
useful in certain instances, but they require further evaluation. If
medication is an optional form of therapy, it should be prescribed in
combination with traditional sex therapy. Couples find great difficulty
approaching the subject with health care professionals but your GP may be
able to put you in touch with a sex therapist. Provision of NHS services for
patients who suffer with premature ejaculation is at best patchy.
