Premature ejaculation remains a difficult condition to manage for patients, their partners, and the clinician. Whilst prevalence rates are estimated to be 20-40%, determining a diagnosis of premature ejaculation is difficult, as the definition remains both subjective and ill-defined in the clinical context. As our understanding of the ejaculatory pathway has improved, new opportunities to treat the condition have evolved with mixed results. In this review, we explore some of these controversies surrounding the aetiology, diagnosis, and treatment of this condition and discuss potential novel therapeutic options.
早泄对于患者、其伴侣以及临床医生而言,仍然是一种难以处理的病症。虽然据估计患病率为20%-40%,但早泄的诊断却很困难,因为在临床环境中,其定义既主观又不明确。随着我们对射精途径理解的提高,治疗该病症的新机会不断涌现,但结果好坏参半。在这篇综述中,我们探讨了围绕该病症病因、诊断和治疗的一些争议,并讨论了潜在的新型治疗选择。
