Delayed Ejaculation

Delayed ejaculation is a male sexual difficulty in which, despite adequate stimulation, ejaculation takes a long time to happen or does not occur at all. It may occur occasionally or persist over time, and both physical and emotional factors often play a role.

Which specialist handles it? The urologist evaluates the physical aspects, while the sexologist and the psychologist address emotional or relationship factors; the general practitioner can guide the first consultation.

Common causes: anxiety or stress, certain medications, alcohol intake, performance anxiety, or health conditions that affect the nerves.

When to seek care? If the situation becomes frequent, causes distress, or affects the couple's relationship, it is worth discussing it openly with a professional, who will assess the case comprehensively.
