Premature ejaculation: Premature
ejaculation is ejecting
semen from the
penis, usually accompanied by
orgasm occurring sooner than a man wishes during sexual activity. Premature ejaculation is characterized by a lack of
voluntary control over
ejaculation that interferes with optimal sexual or psychological well-being in either partner. Also referred to as rapid ejaculation, premature ejaculation typically occurs before or shortly after penetration during sexual intercourse. Premature ejaculation is a common complaint, with an estimated 30% of men regularly suffering from the problem.
