Premature Ejaculation occurs when a man is unable to delay ejaculation in intercourse. Oftentimes, a man dealing with PE will ejaculate before he and/or his partner have experienced much or any sexual stimulation. This condition can lead to several negative side effects like depression, stress, and relational tension when it becomes a recurring issue. Most men will experience an instance or two of PE during their life, which isn’t normally concerning. When PE begins to happen repetitively, that’s when a man should seek medical help.
How Is Premature Ejaculation Diagnosed?
Premature Ejaculation is diagnosed by a medical professional using lab tests and a symptoms assessment. It’s very important in the diagnosis process to be completely honest with your medical provider, so that they can help identify the right treatment for you. Because there are so many different potential causes for PE, medical professionals have to get a thorough understanding of each individual’s situation to give a proper diagnosis and to determine the best treatment options for that person.
