What Is Delayed Ejaculation?
Delayed ejaculation (DE) means having trouble reaching climax even with enough stimulation. It’s more than just a slow build—it’s often a sign that something else is going on.
Types include:
- Superficial: You feel sensation, but can’t finish
- Deep: The body doesn’t respond fully to arousal
- Provoked: Climax only happens in certain situations
Why Does It Happen?
Emotional reasons:
- Stress from work, money, or family
- Worrying about performance or partner satisfaction
- Past trauma or fear of intimacy
- Relationship tension or lack of trust
Physical reasons:
- Nerve damage or infections
- Low testosterone or other hormone issues
- Prostate conditions or pelvic floor problems
- Side effects from certain medications
Most people experience a mix of these causes.
Common Examples and Triggers
Real-life examples:
- You climax easily when alone but struggle with a partner
- Climax takes 30–60 minutes and feels tiring
- Emotional distance from a partner slows down the experience
- Aging or past surgeries change sensation
How to spot your triggers:
- Keep notes on timing, emotions, and comfort
- Try different positions or settings and compare
- Notice how stress, medication, or diet affect your response
Who Is Affected?
Anyone with a prostate can be affected. Delayed ejaculation is more common as people age but can happen at any time.
Men might feel:
- Pressure to “perform”
- Guilt or embarrassment
Partners might feel:
- Left out, confused, or unsure of their role
- Concerned about their partner’s health or feelings
It’s important to talk about it together.
