WHY YOU MIGHT NOT BE LASTING AS LONG AS YOU WANT TO GO

It's common for men to finish too quickly once in a while, but if you nearly always ejaculate after less than a minute of sex, you may be diagnosed with premature ejaculation. 

PSYCHOLOGY : Though the exact cause is not well known, "there are definitely psychological aspects to premature ejaculation," Brahmbhatt says. Studies show that anxiety, particularly anxiety about your sexual performance, is linked to premature ejaculation. Feeling depressed, stressed out, or guilty can also make you more likely to finish quickly. Men may also experience premature ejaculation at higher rates if they have poor body image or are victims of sexual abuse. 

EXPERIENCE : Your level of sexual experience can also affect how long you last in bed. "Men may also climax faster if they are not having sex often or this is their first time engaging in any sexual activity," Brahmbatt says. 

HIGH AMOUNTS OF FREE TESTOSTERONE : Studies show that men with premature ejaculation tend to have higher levels of free testosterone, which can lead to symptoms like loss of energy and low sex drive. . However, scientists say that more research is needed to determine why this is the case. 

HYPERTHYROIDISM : Premature ejaculation can also be caused by hyperthyroidism, a condition in which the thyroid gland in your neck produces too much of a hormone called thyroxine. Researchers aren't sure why thyroid issues affect your sex stamina, but after being treated for hypothyroidism, men are much less likely to experience premature ejaculation.
