Understanding Delayed Ejaculation
Delayed ejaculation, sometimes referred to as “retarded ejaculation” or “impaired ejaculation,” is a where, despite sexual arousal and stimulation, a man cannot reach orgasm and ejaculate. While it can occur occasionally for most individuals, it becomes a concern when it consistently disrupts sexual satisfaction and intimacy.
This condition can manifest in different ways, from difficulty ejaculating during intercourse to the inability to ejaculate at all, even during masturbation. It can can be classified as either lifelong (primary) or acquired (secondary), with each having distinct causes and contributing factors.
