Can premature ejaculation be caused by long foreskin?
Disease description:
I've noticed that recently my intercourse duration has become shorter than before. I haven't gone to the hospital for treatment, but I think it might be related to having long foreskin. Could premature ejaculation be caused by having long foreskin?
Premature ejaculation may be caused by phimosis. When a man has excessive foreskin, it may lead to increased glans sensitivity, thereby raising the risk of premature ejaculation. However, it is important to note that although there is an association between phimosis and premature ejaculation, not all individuals with phimosis will experience premature ejaculation, as other various factors—such as psychological and physiological factors—may also contribute to its occurrence. Therefore, patients experiencing symptoms of premature ejaculation should seek timely medical evaluation to determine the underlying cause and, under medical guidance, receive targeted treatments such as medication, surgery, or psychotherapy to achieve better therapeutic outcomes.
