Eight Reasons Why Premature Ejaculation Happens…

He has been chronically masturbating since age 12 and his premature ejaculation keeps him from having sex with his girlfriend.

Case #: 28899

Concern：

Since the age of 12, I have been masturbating. It started as an occasional activity to release any sexual tension I had. It then turned into a daily activity. It then morphed into an addiction. Now, I masturbate daily—often multiple times a day. My problem is now I have a girlfriend—and she wants to have sex. I do too, but I fear my endurance will be non-existent. Why? Because each time I masturbate, I tend to ejaculate quickly. What can I do to alleviate this problem?

Discussion：

Over-masturbation creates a gamut of different problems, from hair thinning to premature ejaculation. In your case, it seems your excessive masturbation continues to lead to early ejaculation. When you engage in sex—especially for your first time—you may ejaculate prematurely due to the anxiety. Please note, performance anxiety can cause premature ejaculation during sex too, but since you have not had sex yet, it’s too early to say for certain. Below are the 8 reasons why you continue to ejaculate prematurely.

1. Depletion of the serotonin level in the brain and spine interneurons. Interneurons modulate the autonomous function from the parasympathetic nerves to the sympathetic nerves, known as the "Fight or Flight" functions. When serotonin becomes depleted, these interneurons see a dearth in production, resulting in a loss of necessary nerve functions that cause P.E.

2. Depletion of acetylcholine levels. Acetylcholine serves as an essential communication neurotransmitter that elevates heart rate while controling ejaculations. When acetylcholine levels deplete, so too does your ability to control an ejaculation.

3. Depletion of Dopamine. Dopamine is charged with making you experience pleasure. When the body is overloaded with this type of neurotransmitter, what once felt great now feel dull. As a result, you will experience a testosterone deficiency, penis size starts to shrink, and erections become unsustainable. When you consistently get a weak erection and try to “get hard”, you can start to prematurely ejaculate.

4. Abrasion of the prostate ejaculation ducts and neuromuscular endings. When abrasions occur to both the prostate and neuromuscular endings, you start to instantly ejaculate.

5. Development of excessive testosterone and DHT receptors. Too much testosterone and DHT heat up your prostate for sexual urgency that can lead to P.E.

6. Ill-trained prostate reflexion. Over-masturbation ill-conditions your prostate and promotes the brain's sympathetic responses to the input of the vagus nerves.

7. Over-secretion of pre-cum by the bulborethral glands. Pre-cum contains prostaglandin E-2, an inflammatory hormone that when released in excess can lead to P.E. because the hormone opens the ejaculation valve.

8. Underproduction of prostaglandin E-1 (PGE-1) due to depletion of neurochemicals and hormones. PGE-1 relaxes the penile spongy tissues and blocks the urethral/prostate sensory nerves to seal off the ejaculation duct/valve. Low PGE-1 levels means the body cannot seal the ejaculation valve to prevent an early ejaculation.

Help
To help yourself, you should start by refraining from masturbating as often. Masturbation will only further inflame your body or cause hormone imbalances. Sex is fun. Sex is enjoyable. Sex, especially for a novice, can be scary. Relax and enjoy the experience. You should engage in sex in a healthy, responsible manner. More importantly, you and your partner should feel comfortable with each other. Enjoy sex, do not fear it. Now, as for your P.E. problem, you can find all-natural supplements to help you combat the issue.
