Premature ejaculation in Barranquilla, Colombia

Premature Ejaculation

What is premature ejaculation?

Premature ejaculation is a sexual difficulty characterized by ejaculation that occurs sooner than desired, often shortly after sexual activity begins, and may cause frustration, concern, or difficulties in a person's sexual life. It may occur from the first sexual experiences or develop later in life. Its causes can be physical, psychological, or a combination of different factors.

What causes premature ejaculation?

Premature ejaculation may be associated with anxiety, stress, concerns about sexual performance, relationship difficulties, or previous sexual experiences. Biological and hormonal factors, changes in sexual function, and other medical conditions may also play a role. For this reason, an individual evaluation can help identify possible contributing factors and guide appropriate treatment.

What specialist treats premature ejaculation?

Premature ejaculation may require evaluation by different healthcare professionals depending on its underlying cause. A urologist can evaluate male sexual function and rule out associated urological or medical conditions; an andrologist focuses on male sexual and reproductive health; and a sexologist can address aspects related to sexual response, ejaculation control, and sexual performance. When anxiety, stress, insecurity, relationship difficulties, or other emotional factors are involved, a psychologist or therapist specializing in sexual health may be part of the treatment. In some cases, a multidisciplinary approach may be recommended.
