What is Premature Ejaculation?

Premature Ejaculation (PE) or Shukragata Vata is a common sexual issue where a man ejaculates earlier than he or his partner would like during sex. This often happens too quickly during intercourse, sometimes before or just after penetration and can cause frustration and dissatisfaction for both partners.

It's the most common kind of sexual dysfunction identified in males. Estimates suggest that between 30% to 40% of men have Premature Ejaculation at some time during their life.
Premature Ejaculation can be of two main types: lifelong (primary) and acquired (secondary). Lifelong Premature Ejaculation means the person has experienced it from their first sexual encounter. In contrast, Acquired Premature Ejaculation describes the condition that develops after a period of normal sexual function.

The symptoms of Premature Ejaculation mostly involve lack of control over ejaculation and include ejaculating within a minute of penetration. It can also include not being able to defer ejaculation during most sexual encounters. This applies to all sexual situations, including masturbation.
For many, the experience varies; some men may occasionally ejaculate prematurely whereas others face this problem more frequently. No matter the frequency, this condition should be dealt with because it can impact self-confidence and affect the emotional aspects of a relationship. Speaking openly with an Ayurvedic expert can help you explore solutions to manage the symptoms of Premature Ejaculation.

Common Causes of Premature Ejaculation

Premature Ejaculation is a complex problem with many influencing factors. Knowing these factors may help you manage the condition. The most common triggers of Premature Ejaculation are given below :

Psychological Causes:

Stress & Anxiety: High stress levels and anxiety, be it general or focusing on sexual performance, may lead to PE.
Relationship Problems: Emotional strain between partners may affect sexual performance and satisfaction.

Biological Causes:

Neurotransmitter Imbalances: Irregularities in brain chemicals that regulate arousal and excitement may lead to faster ejaculation.
