Prostatic profile, premature ejaculation, erectile function and andropause in an at-risk Mexican population

Abstract

A total of 1,779 men with an average age of 56.6 years were included in the study. The average prostate-specific antigen value in the sample was 1.73 (n = 1,316). Prostatic symptomatology in accordance with the international prostate symptom score was 7.96 points. A total of 41.9% of participants reported experiencing PE. The average time to reach ejaculation was 10.97 min. Of the participating individuals, 39.5% were diagnosed with andropause. Prostatic symptomatology was associated with risk factors of age and prostatitis, P < 0.01. Premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction were associated with age, P < 0.01. Vasomotor problems in the older adult were identified with an association tendency towards alcoholism and excess weight, P < 0.063, but without statistical significance. Sexual problems in the older adult were associated with diabetes mellitus, P < 0.01. Andropause was associated with traumatic problems in general.

Acquired premature ejaculation and male accessory gland infection: relevance of ultrasound examination

“…The increase of the age in patients with LUTS does not represent a protective factor for PE, in fact, another study conducted on 1779 men with a mean age 56 years and a mean IPSS score (International prostate symptoms score) = 7.96 points, showed a prevalence of PE 41% 22. In young patients with P, the frequency of PE seems to be increasing among the younger patients as demonstrated by the study of Qiu: 42.9%, 37.0%, and 35.7% in the 18–30, 30–40, and 40–57 years age groups, respectively 23…”

Impact of erectile function and age in men with lower urinary tract symptoms on ejaculatory dysfunction and premature ejaculation

“…EjD increases with advancing age. 17,18 In our study, the factor most closely associated with EjD was age; as age increased, the incidence of EjD and PE increased. In other words, the ability to ejaculate during sex decreased and the frequency of dry ejaculation increased with aging.…”

“…15,16 Similar results by age groups were also reported by the Brazilian Sexual Life Study: PE was reported in 25.8% of 3332 Brazilian men. 17 JaspersenGastelum et al 18 reported a high prevalence rate in older age groups. They reported that PE was present in 46.9% of 1011 patients, and was more frequent in the age range of 51 --60 years (43.3%), followed by the age range of 61 --70 years (26%).…”
