Abstract
Background: Sexual position is one of the several aspects that affects ejaculation control, which is essential for sexual pleasure. Still little is known, nevertheless, about the connection between sexual positions and ejaculation duration.
Objective: To investigate the impact of various sexual positions on the duration of ejaculation and gain a deeper understanding of the elements that influence the ability to control ejaculation.
Method: An online survey was carried out on a sample of 1904 heterosexual men between the ages of 18-65 years. Premature ejaculation (PE) diagnostic tool was used to define PE. Demographic, behavioral, and physiological traits that are linked to PE and non-PE groups were collected. The participants listed their preferred sexual positions and the ones they changed to during ejaculating. Also, analyses were performed between male/female active or deep/shallow thrust positions and PE status.
Results: Although there were no appreciable variations in age or circumcision between PE and non-PE groups, the age of first sexual experience was associated with PE status. Groups also varied in the number of weekly ejaculations, the duration of the favored ejaculations, and the characteristics of the erection. The most preferred sexual posture was the doggy style regardless of the group. When the non-PE group felt to ejaculate, they preferred to change the position significantly more than the PE group (74% vs 67.2%; p < 0.05). However, when participants felt ejaculate, non-PE participants tended to switch to shallow thrusting positions significantly more than PE participants, who preferred deeper positions (27.1% vs. 18%; p < 0.05).
Conclusion: This study underlines the relevance of considering sexual positions in controlling PE. Modifying positions during sexual intercourse may offer a non-pharmacological therapeutic alternative for improving ejaculation control. Future studies in this field might help to create tailored PE treatment strategies.
背景:性爱姿势是影响射精控制的几个方面之一,而射精控制对性快感至关重要。然而,人们对性爱姿势与射精持续时间之间的关系仍然知之甚少:调查各种性爱姿势对射精持续时间的影响,深入了解影响控制射精能力的因素:对 1904 名年龄在 18-65 岁之间的异性恋男性样本进行了在线调查。早泄(PE)诊断工具用于定义早泄。调查还收集了与 PE 和非 PE 群体相关的人口、行为和生理特征。参与者列出了他们喜欢的性爱体位以及在射精时改变的体位。此外,还对男性/女性主动或深浅插入体位与 PE 状态进行了分析:结果:虽然 PE 组和非 PE 组在年龄或包皮环切术方面没有明显差异,但首次性经历的年龄与 PE 状态有关。各组在每周射精次数、喜欢的射精持续时间和勃起特征方面也存在差异。无论在哪个组别,最喜欢的性爱姿势都是狗爬式。当非 PE 组感到要射精时,他们喜欢改变姿势的比例明显高于 PE 组(74% 对 67.2%;P 结论:这一研究强调了在性生活中考虑射精姿势的重要性:本研究强调了在控制 PE 时考虑性交体位的重要性。在性交过程中改变体位可能是改善射精控制的一种非药物治疗方法。未来在这一领域的研究可能有助于制定量身定制的 PE 治疗策略。
期刊介绍:
Andrology is the study of the male reproductive system and other male gender related health issues. Andrology deals with basic and clinical aspects of the male reproductive system (gonads, endocrine and accessory organs) in all species, including the diagnosis and treatment of medical problems associated with sexual development, infertility, sexual dysfunction, sex hormone action and other urological problems. In medicine, Andrology as a specialty is a recent development, as it had previously been considered a subspecialty of urology or endocrinology
