Masturbation and premature ejaculation issues?
Is it possible to ask if masturbating every two days, with longer duration in the morning and quicker ejaculation in the evening or after a day of activities (around two to three minutes), indicates a problem with premature ejaculation? I typically stroke my penis at a frequency of two to three times per second; is this level of stimulation considered inadequate?

Hello: DIY and sexual activity are different and cannot be objectively compared; as long as you don't get hurt, it should be safe.
Wishing you good health.

More Info
Premature ejaculation (PE) is a common sexual dysfunction that affects many men at some point in their lives. It is characterized by ejaculation that occurs with minimal sexual stimulation, often before the individual wishes it to happen. Understanding the frequency and duration of sexual activity, as well as the physiological responses involved, can provide insights into whether one might be experiencing PE.
From your description, it seems that you are experiencing variations in your ejaculation timing based on the time of day and your activity level. It is not uncommon for men to notice differences in sexual performance due to various factors, including fatigue, stress, and overall physical condition. The fact that you find yourself lasting longer in the morning compared to the evening could be attributed to several factors, such as hormonal levels, energy levels, and mental state.
In terms of the frequency of masturbation, two times a week is generally considered normal and healthy for most men. However, the key aspect to consider is not just the frequency but also how you feel about your sexual performance and whether it aligns with your personal expectations and satisfaction. If you find that you are consistently ejaculating within two to three minutes during these sessions, it may be worth exploring further.
The rate at which you are stimulating your penis (two to three strokes per second) is relatively common, but the perception of whether this is "too fast" or "too slow" can vary significantly from person to person. The important thing is how this stimulation feels to you and whether it leads to a satisfying sexual experience. If you feel that your ejaculation is occurring too quickly and it is causing distress or dissatisfaction, it may be indicative of PE.
PE can be influenced by psychological factors, such as anxiety or stress, as well as physiological factors, including sensitivity of the penis and hormonal levels. If you are concerned about your sexual performance, it may be beneficial to consult with a healthcare professional who specializes in sexual health. They can provide a thorough evaluation and discuss potential treatment options, which may include behavioral techniques, counseling, or medications.
In addition, practicing relaxation techniques, mindfulness, and pelvic floor exercises can help improve control over ejaculation. Some men find that focusing on their breathing or using the "stop-start" technique during masturbation can help them gain better control over their ejaculation timing.
In summary, while your experience of ejaculating quickly after a day of activity may raise concerns about premature ejaculation, it is essential to consider the broader context of your sexual health and satisfaction. If this issue is causing you distress or affecting your intimate relationships, seeking professional guidance can provide clarity and support. Remember, sexual health is an important aspect of overall well-being, and addressing concerns early can lead to better outcomes.
