Women suffer during premature ejaculation too

'Women suffer during premature ejaculation too': Psychologist reveals the frustration of the partners of men who are 'too tied up in their own (short-lived) pleasure'

• Premature ejaculation in men can cause psychological stress in women

• 40% of women think ejaculation control is very important for satisfying sex

• Many say men who are worried about lasting long enough are distracted from focusing on their partner's pleasure and enjoyment during sex

• The women's frustrations can lead to relationships to breakdown

Premature ejaculation is well-known to blight the sex lives of millions of men.

But a new survey has confirmed what many women know to be true - it's not only their partners who suffer.

Swiss research found premature ejaculation in men also causes psychological stress in women - and not just because of the duration of intercourse.

Premature ejaculation in men can cause sexual frustration in women, new research shows

Andrea Burri, a clinical psychologist at the University of Zurich, surveyed more than 1,500 women from Mexico, Italy and South Korea.

She discovered that 40 per cent think ejaculation control is very important for satisfactory intercourse.

And many said the short duration of sex with a man with premature ejaculation causes sexual frustration.

However, interestingly, it was more common for the women to say the main cause of frustration was the man’s focus on delaying ejaculation.

They said this meant the men were distracted from the woman’s needs and desires.

For the majority of the women polled, satisfying sex did not only consist of sexual intercourse, but also included kissing, caressing and other forms of sexual stimulation.

They said that if the man is primarily preoccupied with premature ejaculation and his performance, these needs are ignored. 

Dr Burri explained that if a man suffers from premature ejaculation, sex is increasingly about time rather than pleasure and that this can be frustrating and distressing for a woman.

She said that in the long run, these women may start to avoid sexual contact which can damage the relationship.

And added that many essentially harmonious relationships end in a split because of the woman’s bottled-up frustration.

‘After all, the consequences are often more far-reaching than simple sexual dissatisfaction as, in extreme cases, it poses a threat to the desire to have children if the man already ejaculates prior to actual intercourse.’
