Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Andrology
  • Sexual Medicine

Context:

  • Premature ejaculation (PE) is a prevalent male sexual dysfunction with complex, not fully elucidated, mechanisms.
  • Recent research has focused on the role of nitric oxide (NO) in ejaculation and the therapeutic potential of phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors.

Purpose:

  • To provide an updated overview of the epidemiology, definition, etiopathogenesis, and mechanisms of premature ejaculation.
  • To review current and emerging therapeutic strategies for managing premature ejaculation.
  • To offer guidance for the clinical diagnosis and management of premature ejaculation.

Summary:

  • Significant advancements have been made in understanding the underlying causes and pathways of premature ejaculation.
  • Selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are commonly used but associated with adverse effects, prompting exploration of alternative treatments.
