Doctor, I've been experiencing a sensation of wanting to ejaculate after touching my genital area recently.
Is this a cause for concern? If I need to have my genital area examined at your clinic, should I first schedule an appointment for an internal examination or what should I do?

Hello Mr.
Xiao Bai: Thank you for your inquiry.
Here are my responses and suggestions: 1.
That is completely normal; psychogenic arousal is closely related to erection and ejaculation.
2.
Please schedule an appointment with a urologist for an examination.

When it comes to understanding genital sensations and when to seek urological advice, it's important to recognize that experiencing a sensation of arousal or the urge to ejaculate after touching the genital area can be a normal physiological response. However, if this sensation is accompanied by discomfort, pain, or any other unusual symptoms, it may warrant further investigation.

Firstly, the sensation you are describing could be related to heightened sensitivity in the genital area, which can occur for various reasons, including hormonal changes, anxiety, or even certain medications. In many cases, this heightened sensitivity is not a cause for concern. However, if you notice that this sensation is persistent, occurs with discomfort, or is accompanied by other symptoms such as pain during urination, unusual discharge, or changes in sexual function, it would be advisable to seek medical advice.

In terms of seeking urological care, the process typically involves making an appointment with a urologist. You may need to start by visiting your primary care physician, who can evaluate your symptoms and refer you to a urologist if necessary. In some healthcare systems, you may be able to directly schedule an appointment with a urologist without a referral, but this can vary by location and insurance requirements.

When you visit a urologist, they will likely conduct a thorough medical history and physical examination. This may include a genital examination to assess for any abnormalities. Depending on your symptoms, the doctor may also recommend further tests, such as urine analysis, blood tests, or imaging studies, to rule out any underlying conditions.

It's also worth noting that sexual health is an important aspect of overall well-being, and discussing any concerns with a healthcare provider can help alleviate anxiety and provide clarity. If you feel uncomfortable or embarrassed about discussing these sensations, remember that urologists are trained to handle such topics sensitively and professionally.

In summary, while the sensation you are experiencing may not necessarily indicate a problem, it is essential to pay attention to your body and seek medical advice if you have any concerns or if the sensations are accompanied by other troubling symptoms. Making an appointment with a urologist can provide you with the necessary guidance and reassurance regarding your sexual health.
