Premature ejaculation still ranks as the commonest sex problem among men below the age of 35. Of course, when you consider all sexually active men of all ages, then failure to get a sufficient erection to satisfy a sexual situation becomes the commonest, simply because erectile dysfunction is commoner in the older age groups as part of the aging process.

I am focusing on this today because Andrew came to the Sexology Clinic last week in severe distress with plans of committing suicide. Andrew is 23 and just completed his Bachelor’s degree in IT. He got hired as an intern two months ago. While in campus, he tried two relationships, which failed terribly due to premature ejaculation.
