Premature ejaculation is very evident in younger men all around the world, but it is often common in older men as well.
If you are an older man who is experiencing premature ejaculation problems, or perhaps your husband is suffering from such problems, there is help.
First it is helpful to understand how premature ejaculation and the sexual cycle changes as the male gets older.
The sexual response cycle remains essentially the same throughout your life, but the natural aging process produces some changes in the reactions of middle aged and older people.
They are still capable of reaching orgasm but their responses tend to be slower and more attenuated than when they were younger.
Older men can still get erections but it takes them longer than the few seconds that it takes a younger man.
Once an erection is attained, the older man is able to maintain it for a longer period of time before he reaches his orgasm.
However, if you do lose an erection before orgasm, then it is likely that you will experience greater difficulty recovering it.
Additionally, the usual changes in the scrotal sac, the elevation and enlargement of the testicles and the pre-ejaculatory emission of sperm can all be reduced or even not present during the erection phase in an older male.
It is in the ejaculation phase that most of the physiological changes occur for an older man.
The emission component with its accompanying feelings of ejaculatory inevitability may be shortened or will not happen at all, so that the orgasm is sometimes experience as a one stage process.
During the expulsion (ejaculation) of your sexual stage there are fewer muscular contractions and the semen will come out at a much slower rate, keep in mind that this is generally only with older males.
Once your orgasm has occurred, you will notice, with age, that your erections disappear much more rapidly than they did when you were younger.
