Medical Video: The male orgasm explained
Premature ejaculation is the most common problem with bed performance especially by the Adam. In fact, male sexual problems are not just that. Many men out there complain of difficulty orgasm. This is also known as ejaculation difficulty (delayed ejaculation).
Unlike people who experience premature ejaculation, men who have difficulty ejaculating actually never reach climax even though the penis has been erect (tense) and feels quite aroused.
Do you or your partner experience this? Come on, see further explanation about the difficulties of ejaculation below.
Symptoms of ejaculation (orgasm) in men
Everyone has a different time span to reach climax when having sex or masturbation. However, on average, men can orgasm within five minutes after sex detection (penis to vagina).
Well, be careful if you can't orgasm even though you have had an erection for 20 to 30 minutes. Especially if this problem has been going on for six months or more. You may have difficulty ejaculating.
To ascertain whether you really have difficulty orgasm, you can immediately see a doctor. Because, only doctors can provide the right diagnosis for your condition.
Why am I having an orgasm when I can get an erection?
There are several reasons why you have difficulty orgasm even though your penis has erected. According to the men's health clinic managed by the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) in the United States, the three main factors that make men orgasm difficult are nerve damage, hormonal disorders, and a person's psychological condition. Here's the full review.
1. Nerve damage
Orgasm itself is controlled by one of the nerves in the penis and other body parts. Nerves throughout your body receive sexual stimulation and send signals to stimulation to the brain.
From there, the brain will respond by flowing blood to the penis and producing sperm in the testicles. If it's stimulated enough, the sperm should be flowed into the penis and out in the semen (ejaculate fluid). Well, any disturbance in the body's nerves can inhibit or disrupt the ejaculation process. As a result, you cannot release semen.
Nerve damage that causes ejaculation disorders is usually experienced by people who suffer from diseases such as diabetes, stroke, and multiple sclerosis. Men who have had pelvic surgery or have suffered a spinal cord injury are also prone to nerve damage that can cause orgasmic difficulties.
2. Hormone disorders
Besides the nervous system, orgasm is also regulated by hormone levels in your body. If your hormone levels are not balanced, you have difficulty orgasm.
There are various kinds of unbalanced causes of hormones. For example because of the consumption of drugs such as antidepressants and tranquilizers. Your hormones can also change with age.
In addition, men with testosterone levels that are too low generally also have problems ejaculating difficulties.
3. Psychological conditions
Difficulty with ejaculation can also be caused by your psychological condition. So, note that before or during sex you feel less confident, afraid to impregnate your partner, feel guilty for having sex, or you actually haven't been happy with your partner.
Some men also have difficulty orgasm because they have experienced traumatic events in the past. Examples are victims of sexual violence or when they were children who witnessed sexual violence.
How to overcome ejaculation difficulties
It is best to see your doctor immediately if you suspect you have difficulty ejaculating. The doctor will give the right diagnosis after undergoing a series of tests. Only then can you start the appropriate treatment.
Treatment given to overcome ejaculation difficulties can vary depending on the cause. If you have difficulty orgasm due to the consumption of antidepressant drugs, your doctor may change the medication with another type.
If you experience hormonal disorders, you may be advised to undergo hormone therapy. Whereas if you have difficulty ejaculating because there is nerve damage, the key is to overcome the disease or condition that causes nerve damage.
Besides medication, you may also be advised to undergo counseling with a psychologist. Therapy or counseling can help you control your feelings and thoughts to be more relaxed during sex.
