1. Stress

2. Anxiety

3. History of sexual repression (negative feeling about the idea of sex).

4. Lack of confidence

5. Relationship problems

6. Early sexual experience

B. Hormonal Imbalance

Serotonin: The body naturally produces serotonin through the nerves. The time it takes to ejaculate is lengthened by high levels of serotonin in the brain. Low doses can speed up the ejaculation process and cause PE.

A physiological issue that affects oxytocin levels which are important for a man’s sexual performance. Luteinizing hormone (LH), prolactin, and thyroid stimulating hormone are other hormone levels that affect sexual performance.

C. Infection: Inflammation or an infection in the prostate or urethra.

D. Age: Men of any age can experience PE. Even though aging alters erections and ejaculation, it does not directly cause PE. Erection may not be as strong or as long in elderly men. It might take less time for erection to end before ejaculation starts. There might be a shorter period of anticipation before ejaculation occurs. An older guy may start ejaculating early as a result of these changes.

Risk Factors Of Premature Ejaculation

Many factors can increase the risk of premature ejaculation.

Erectile dysfunction: If a person is having trouble getting or keeping an erection, he is at increased risk of premature ejaculation. One might hurry through sex because of fear of losing an erection.

Stress: Emotional or mental strain can limit the ability to relax and focus during sex. This can play role in premature ejaculation.

Classification Of Premature Ejaculation

Premature ejaculation can be classified into two types.

Lifelong (primary): Lifelong premature ejaculation occurs nearly every time starting with the first sexual encounter.

Acquired (secondary): Previous sexual experiences occur without any problem in ejaculation, but premature ejaculation develops later.

Pathophysiology Of Premature Ejaculation

 Pathophyiology of PE is largely unknown and can cause many changes in the body.

Biological, organ systems directly affected by premature ejaculation: 

1. Male reproductive tract (penis, prostate, seminal vesicle, testicles, and their appendages)

2. Portion of central and peripheral nervous system controlling male reproductive tracts

3. Reproductive organ systems of sexual partner that may not be stimulated sufficiently

4. Hyposensitivity of 5-HT2C receptor, hypersensitivity of 5-HT1A/5-HT2B  receptor, hypersensitivity of the glans, psychosocial and relational factors, etc.

What Are The Symptoms Of ED?

In case of erectile dysfunction, symptoms that can arise include problem in getting an erection, weak erection or difficulty in maintaining an erection hard enough for sex. In some cases, there is complete inability to get erections. ED is diagnosed when such symptoms are recurrent or persistent for minimum 3 months’ time.

Along with above symptoms there may be decrease in sexual desire. Premature ejaculation may be related to ED in some cases. Sometimes anorgasmia (inability to reach orgasm during sex) occurs. Person may also have associated emotional symptoms like anxiety, feeling embarrassed and depressed.

Types Of Erectile Dysfunction

ED can be primary or secondary.

1.In primary ED, men may have never got an erection and ED is there from the beginning. Usually the cause behind it is psychology-related in the absence of any anatomical or physiological defect.

2.Secondary ED is the one in which a man has had normal erections earlier, but at some point started having problem with erections. Mostly secondary ED occurs from a physical cause. Cases of primary ED are rare and mostly cases of ED are secondary.

Pathophysiology behind ED

For erections to occur a number of factors collectively play a role.  These involve role of nerves, blood vessels, muscles and hormones.  During sexual arousal, brain sends signals via nerves to penis causing its stimulation and relaxation of corpora cavernosa. Corpora cavernosa are two columns of spongy tissue that run through the length of the penis. It contains blood vessels which fill with blood leading to an erection. Its relaxation is followed by a rush of blood to arteries of corpora cavernosa that fill them up. Pressure created by blood in these arteries cause expansion of penis creating an erection. When orgasm occurs, nerve signal reaches penis and causes contraction of muscle tissue in penis. It is followed by release of blood into the general blood circulation that causes relaxation of penis and bring it to its original state of not being sexually aroused.

If there occurs a problem in nerves, blood vessels, muscles, hormones then ED can occur.

What Are The Causes Behind It?

The main reason behind ED is impaired blood flow to penis and damage to nerves that can happen due to a number of reasons.

ED can result from physical or emotional causes.

Physical causes that contribute to ED are as follows:

1.The first among these causes is diabetes. Complaint of ED is common in men who suffer from diabetes which can cause damage to nerves that send signal to penis and blood vessels of penis which can result in ED.

2. Second cause linked with ED is hypertension means high blood pressure, heart disease, atherosclerosis (means narrowing of blood vessels) and increased blood cholesterol levels. In men having hypertension, poor blood flow to penis may occur. This is because high BP causes hardening and narrowing of the arterial walls which decreases blood flow to penis. There is strong link between ED and heart disease. According to many studies, males with ED are at high risk of heart disease.In case of atherosclerosis due to narrowing of arteries, blood flow is obstructed to penis which results in ED. Atherosclerosis can be due different reasons, among which the most common is increase in levels of blood cholesterol which can build up in the arteries narrowing them, consequently reducing blood flow that can lead to ED.

3. The chances of ED also increase with advancing age. Erection may get weak as a male gets older.

4.Low testosterone levels is another factor linked to ED. Testosterone is required for normal erections and low testosterone may cause ED, but what exactly is the relationship between these two is not clearly known. Low testosterone may be linked with obesity, heart disease and diabetes which can contribute to ED. The extent of the low level of testosterone at which ED may occur is not yet clear. Low testosterone may also reduce the sex drive. It is also noted that many men with low testosterone have no issues with erection.

5. Smoking or tobacco use, alcoholism and use of recreational drugs may also result in ED. Smoking causes damage to blood vessels, mainly the lining of blood vessels that can result in decrease blood supply to penis which is a main reason behind ED. Men who have been consuming excessive alcohol for many years are at 50-70% of risk of suffering from ED. This is because alcohol reduces the flow of blood to the penis. Some recreational drugs  like cocaine, marijuana, opiates, barbiturates, nicotine, etc. may lead to ED.

These drugs damage blood vessels and suppress the central nervous system that contributes to ED. Obesity also increases the risk of ED by 30 – 90%. It can cause ED by damaging the blood vessels and causing a decrease in testosterone levels. The damage to blood vessels is often the result of high BP, high cholesterol, atherosclerosis, diabetes and heart disease. Males who have any of these conditions along with obesity are at more risk of ED as compared to males who are only obese but do not have any of these medical conditions.

6. Damage to spinal cord or pelvic area can lead to ED and also some other disorders linked to ED, like metabolic syndrome, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, Peyronie’s disease, sleep disorders, and kidney disease.

Metabolic syndrome is a condition in which there is increased blood pressure, high cholesterol, high insulin levels, and excessive body fat around the waist.

Parkinson’s disease is disorder in the nervous system that mainly starts with shaking tremors in the hands followed by other symptoms like slow movement, rigid muscles, impaired balance and speech changes.

Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune disorder in which the immune cells damages the protective covering of nerves. Due to the damage to the nerves, communication between the brain and the body is hampered.

Peyronie’s disease is the one in which scar tissue develop in the penis.

7. Use of certain medicines may also lead to ED, for example certain medicines used for treatment of depression, high blood pressure, Parkinson’s disease, chemotherapy; diuretics (drugs that increase urine flow), and medicine used to treat seizures.

ED and prostate issues – Are these inter related?

Though prostate enlargement (BPH – benign prostatic hyperplasia) may not cause ED, certain medicines (like finasteride) for treating it can lead to ED. Other than this severe prostatitis can lead to ED. Advanced stage of prostate cancer can lead to ED when cancer has spread to arteries and nerves needed for erection. Radiation therapy for prostate cancer can damage erectile tissue of penis and surgery done for prostate cancer can damage some of the nerves or arteries required for erection. Also some hormone therapy medication like leuprolide, flutamide used for treating prostate cancer can cause ED.

Psychological causes linked to ED

It includes stress, anxiety, depression, fear of intimacy, relationship problem

What complications can occur in such cases?

Complications that can arise are relationship issues with partner, unfulfilling sex life, low self esteem, stress, anxiety and infertility.

Lifestyle modifications to improve ED complaint

1.Regular exercise and eating healthy balanced diet

2.Reducing stress and anxiety

3.Reduce smoking and alcohol consumption

4.If any underlying condition like heart diseases, diabetes, depression, high blood pressure are there, they should be properly managed
