Does premature ejaculation mean kidney deficiency? Experts answer six questions about men's premature ejaculation

Premature ejaculation in sexual life is a topic that is difficult for men to talk about. Many men have questions about premature ejaculation and have misunderstandings about it. Urologists answered the common questions of men about premature ejaculation.

Q1: Does premature ejaculation mean ejaculation too fast during sexual life?

A: This view is correct, but not comprehensive. According to the definition of premature ejaculation by the 2014 International Medical Association, it mainly includes three aspects: first, the ejaculation latency is shortened, which refers to the time from the penis to the vagina to ejaculation (he explained that the time mentioned in the definition is only relative); Second, ejaculation can hardly be delayed; The third is the negative physical and psychological effects, such as distress, anxiety, depression or avoidance of sexual life.

If these three factors are ranked according to their importance, they should be the most important for the control of ejaculation, the second for the physical and mental impact, and the third for the ejaculation latency. Therefore, patients do not have to worry too much about the time of ejaculation. Control and personal feelings are more important.

Q2: Is premature ejaculation a mental disease or a physical disease?

A: Premature ejaculation has both mental and organic factors. Mental factors such as anxiety, distress, excessive pressure, etc., also include harmonious relationship between husband and wife, harmonious sexual life and other factors. Organic factors, such as some patients with too long foreskin, lead to too sensitive glans, which may lead to premature ejaculation; Some patients with chronic prostatitis may also have premature ejaculation. Because the male ejaculation process is affected by mental state, mood and psychological factors, it is possible to cause or aggravate premature ejaculation when tired and in a bad mood.

Q3: Does masturbation cause premature ejaculation?

A: Generally, masturbation will not lead to premature ejaculation, but if masturbation is too frequent, it will have a certain impact. In addition, the wrong way of masturbation also has an impact. For example, every time you masturbate, try to ejaculate as soon as possible, which will lead to premature ejaculation.

Q4: Is premature ejaculation impotence or kidney deficiency?

A: This view is wrong. Impotence, also known as erectile dysfunction, refers to a man's inability to achieve or maintain enough rigidity of penis erection under sexual stimulation to complete a satisfactory sexual life. Therefore, the key to impotence patients is the decrease of erectile stiffness. Kidney deficiency is the point of view of traditional Chinese medicine. The "kidney" here is different from the kidney in western medicine. From the perspective of western medicine, premature ejaculation has no direct relationship with renal function.

Q5: Is there any way to cure premature ejaculation?

A: If the symptoms are not serious, some patients can be improved through self-regulation, such as psychological adjustment, relieving pressure, improving marital relationship, etc; Some patients can improve premature ejaculation by adjusting their sexual lifestyle. If the symptoms are serious, the impact is obvious, or cannot be improved through self-regulation, you need to seek medical treatment. It includes drug treatment, psychological/behavioral therapy and surgical treatment, which should be selected according to the specific conditions of patients.

Q6: Will taking too many drugs for premature ejaculation affect fertility?

A: It depends on what medicine you take. For couples who are going to have children recently, it is better to stop taking medicine temporarily.
