Persistent ejaculation sensation?

Dr.
Lin has recently observed that after masturbation, the sensation of ejaculation from the penis lasts for about 10 minutes.
Initially, he thought that not all semen had been expelled, but after manipulating the penis, no additional semen was released.
However, he still experiences a persistent sensation of impending ejaculation, even though the erection has subsided.
He has tried applying heat and urinating, but the sensation of ejaculation remains.
Is it possible to continue stimulation and achieve a second ejaculation? He has experienced this before, and after the second ejaculation, he felt better.
What could be the reason for this?

More Info

Persistent ejaculation sensation, or the sensation of continued ejaculation after the act has been completed, can be a perplexing issue for many individuals. This phenomenon can be attributed to a variety of physiological and psychological factors, and understanding these can help in addressing the concern effectively.

Causes of Persistent Ejaculation Sensation
1. Physiological Factors:
- Nerve Sensitivity: After ejaculation, the nerves in the genital area may remain sensitive for a period of time. This heightened sensitivity can lead to a lingering sensation of ejaculation even when no further semen is expelled.

- Prostate Health: The prostate gland plays a crucial role in ejaculation. If there is any inflammation or irritation of the prostate, it may cause sensations that mimic ejaculation.

- Hormonal Fluctuations: Hormones such as testosterone and others can influence sexual function and sensations. Changes in hormone levels can lead to unusual sensations post-ejaculation.

2. Psychological Factors:
- Anxiety and Stress: Psychological factors such as anxiety about sexual performance or stress can lead to heightened sensations and may cause a person to feel as though they are still experiencing ejaculation.

- Conditioning: If an individual has experienced this sensation frequently, it may become a conditioned response, where the body continues to react as if ejaculation is occurring even when it is not.

3. Physical Stimulation:
- Continuous stimulation after ejaculation can lead to a sensation of pleasure that may feel like ejaculation. This is often due to the remaining sensitivity in the genital area.

Solutions and Recommendations
1. Understanding the Body: It is essential to recognize that the body can sometimes react in unexpected ways. Understanding that the sensation may not indicate a physical issue can help alleviate anxiety surrounding the experience.

2. Experiment with Techniques:
- Gradual Stimulation: If the sensation persists, consider gradually reducing stimulation after ejaculation. This may help the body adjust and reduce the lingering sensation.

- Relaxation Techniques: Engaging in relaxation techniques such as deep breathing or mindfulness can help reduce anxiety and may alleviate the sensation.

3. Consult a Healthcare Provider:
- If the sensation continues to be bothersome or if there are other symptoms (such as pain or changes in urination), it is advisable to consult a healthcare provider. They can assess for any underlying conditions such as prostatitis or other issues that may require treatment.

4. Consider Psychological Support: If anxiety or stress is suspected to be a contributing factor, speaking with a mental health professional may provide strategies to cope with these feelings.

5. Avoiding Overstimulation: If the sensation is bothersome, it may be helpful to avoid excessive stimulation immediately after ejaculation until the sensation subsides.

Conclusion
The sensation of persistent ejaculation can be a complex interplay of physiological and psychological factors. While it may be uncomfortable, understanding the underlying causes can help in managing the experience. If the sensation persists or worsens, seeking medical advice is crucial to rule out any potential health issues. Remember that sexual health is an important aspect of overall well-being, and addressing concerns openly with a healthcare provider can lead to effective solutions.
