What Causes Of Premature
Ejaculation?
There are many possible causes of premature ejaculation, both psychological and environmental. Knowing
what causes premature ejaculation in your particular case can greatly increase your chances of overcoming
it.
Psychological Factors
Psychological factors such as stress, fear, or guilt can cause premature ejaculation. Examples of
psychological factors include guilt that the sexual activity is wrong or sinful, fear of getting caught, or
stress from problems at work or home or anxiety due to previous episodes of premature ejaculation. Performance
anxiety can also cause premature ejaculation.
Impotence
You may be at increased risk of premature ejaculation if you occasionally or consistently
experience impotence. Fear of losing your erection may cause you to rush through sexual
encounters.
Health problems
If you have a medical concern that causes you to feel anxious during sex, such as a heart
problem, you may have an increased likelihood of hurrying to ejaculate.

Stress
Emotional or mental strain in any area of your life can cause or exacerbate premature ejaculation, often
limiting your ability to relax and focus during sexual encounters.
Certain medications
Rarely, drugs that influence the action of chemical messengers in the brain (psychotropics) may cause
premature ejaculation.
Genes
A study conducted in the Netherlands linked premature ejaculation to a gene for serotonin
regulation in a group of two hundred men. A more recent study from Finland independently show a genetic link to
premature ejaculation in a much larger group, and rule out environmental factors. So your genes can cause
premature ejaculation.
