    Premature Ejaculation: On Defining and Quantifying a Common Male Sexual Dysfunction

    THE JOURNAL OF SEXUAL MEDICINE, Issue 2006
    Gregory A. Broderick MD
    ABSTRACT Introduction., Premature ejaculation (PE) and its individual and relationship consequences have been recognized in the literature for centuries. PE is one of the most common male sexual dysfunctions, affecting nearly one in three men worldwide between the ages of 18 and 59 years. Until recently, PE was believed to be a learned behavior predominantly managed with psychosexual therapy; however, the past few decades have seen significant advances in understanding its etiology, diagnosis, and management. There is, as yet, no one universally agreed upon definition of PE. Aim., To review five currently published definitions of PE. Methods., The Sexual Medicine Society of North America hosted a State of the Art Conference on Premature Ejaculation on June 24,26, 2005 in collaboration with the University of South Florida. The purpose was to have an open exchange of contemporary research and clinical information on PE. There were 16 invited presenters and discussants; the group focused on several educational objectives. Main Outcome Measure., Data were utilized from the World Health Organization, the American Psychiatric Association, the European Association of Urology, the Second International Consultation on Sexual Dysfunctions, and the American Urological Association. Results., The current published definitions of PE have many similarities; however, none of these provide a specific "time to ejaculation," in part because of the absence of normative data on this subject. While investigators agree that men with PE have a shortened intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT; i.e., time from vaginal penetration to ejaculation), there is now a greater appreciation of PE as a multidimensional dysfunction encompassing several components, including time and subjective parameters such as "control,""satisfaction," and "distress." Conclusion., There is a recent paradigm shift away from PE as a unidimensional disorder of IELT toward a multidimensional description of PE as a biologic dysfunction with psychosocial components.

    Addiction to apomorphine: a clinical case-centred discussion

    ADDICTION, Issue 11 2006
    Carlos Téllez
    ABSTRACT Aim To report the case of a patient, who in the context of an anti-Parkinsonian therapy, developed addiction to apomorphine. Methods Clinical case description. Results Apomorphine is a dopaminergic agonist that acts directly on D2 receptors. It has been used in alcoholism, male sexual dysfunction and with diagnostic and therapeutic purposes in Parkinson's disease (PD). Conclusions The present work describes the case of a woman with PD who developed a loss of control over the consumption of apomorphine that resulted in a significant impairment of her functioning. PD patients with high frequency develop different psychiatric symptoms. Conversely, anti-Parkinsonian drugs also generate psychiatric symptoms that can be experienced by the patient as pleasant sensations (,alerting', ,awakening', ,activating', hypomania and hypersexuality). In spite of this, addiction to these drugs in patients with PD is a very rare phenomenon. Currently, the prescription of apomorphine has been extended to patients with erectile dysfunction, which may increase the prevalence of addiction cases or of severe psychiatric symptoms. [source]

    Correlation between ejaculatory and erectile dysfunction

    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ANDROLOGY, Issue 2005
    E. A. JANNINI
    Summary Premature ejaculation (PE) and erectile dysfunction (ED) are different sexological issues. However, they have many little-known links. PE is the most common male sexual dysfunction, but ED is undoubtedly the most common reason that medical help is sought. As a consequence, PE is largely under-diagnosed and under-treated, while ED has received great scientific and clinical attention in recent years. There are plenty of reasons for this: (i) PE is classically considered as psychogenic in nature; (ii) it is traditionally treated with behavioural psychotherapies; (iii) clear and accepted clinical definition(s) are lacking; (iv) the aetiologies are largely unknown; (v) the pathogenesis is still obscure , there is a lack of awareness and acknowledgement of PE as a symptom of medical disease; (vi) lacking a medical presence in the field and requests for help from patients are low. Finally, erectile dysfunctions (ED) and ejaculatory dysfunctions frequently overlap. The aim of this review article is to propose a new taxonomy of PE, which considers ED as an important factor of PE and vice versa. [source]

    ORIGINAL RESEARCH,EJACULATORY DISORDERS: Evaluation of Tramadol on Demand Vs.

    THE JOURNAL OF SEXUAL MEDICINE, Issue 8 2010
    Daily Paroxetine as a Long-Term Treatment of Lifelong Premature Ejaculation
    ABSTRACT Introduction., Premature ejaculation (PE) is the most common male sexual dysfunction with many lines of treatment that show conflicting results. Paroxetine and tramadol were both reported to be effective in treatment of PE. Aim., To investigate the effectiveness of long-term daily paroxetine vs. on-demand tramadol HCl in treatment of PE. Main Outcome Measures., Intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT) and Arabic Index of PE (AIPE) were used to assess the efficacy of investigated drugs. Methods., Thirty-five cases with lifelong PE were enrolled in this study. Baseline recording of IELT using a stop watch and AIPE was done. Patients were randomized to take tramadol HCl on-demand or daily paroxetine. Reassessment was done after 6 and 12 weeks. A wash-out period for 2 weeks was given before cross-over to the other medication. Assessment of the effect of the second medication after 6 and 12 weeks was done. Results., Tramadol and paroxetine increased IELT significantly after 6 weeks by seven- and 11-folds, respectively, compared with baseline. After 12 weeks, a decline of IELT to fivefolds was recorded with tramadol whereas further increase of IELT to 22-folds was recorded with paroxetine compared with baseline (P < 0.05). Tramadol improved AIPE score significantly after 6 weeks but not after 12 weeks vs. baseline, whereas paroxetine increased the AIPE score after 6 and 12 weeks vs. baseline (P < 0.05). Conclusions., Daily paroxetine is more effective than on-demand tramadol for treatment of lifelong PE. Tramadol is not recommended as a long-term treatment of lifelong PE.

    The Effects of Oral Administration of D-Modafinil on Male Rat Ejaculatory Behavior

    THE JOURNAL OF SEXUAL MEDICINE, Issue 1pt1 2010
    Lesley Marson PhD
    ABSTRACT Introduction., Premature ejaculation (PE) is one of the most common forms of male sexual dysfunction. Examination of various classes of drugs on ejaculation latency would provide further opportunities for drug development in this field. Aim., This study was conducted to examine the effects of the d-isomer of modafinil (d-modafinil) on ejaculatory behavior in a rat model. Methods., Male sexual behavior in the rat was examined after acute oral administration of d-modafinil (10 mg/kg, 30 mg/kg, and 100 mg/kg) in copulation studies with receptive females. Main Outcome Measures., The latency to ejaculation, post-ejaculatory interval, and the frequency of mounting behavior were measured. Results d-modafinil (30 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg) produced a significant delay in ejaculation. The delay in ejaculation was accompanied by an increase in the number of intromissions without any change in the mount or intromission latency. The possible mechanisms of action of d-modafinil to produce this delay in ejaculation are discussed. Conclusions., These results demonstrate that acute oral administration of d-modafinil can lengthen the latency to ejaculation in rats without suppressing sexual behavior. The greatest delay in ejaculation was observed in animals with shorter baseline ejaculatory latencies. Investigation into new classes of drugs that modulate ejaculation may provide new therapeutic options for treating PE. Marson L, Yu G, and Farber NM.
