Researchers Find Correlation Between Premature Ejaculation an CP/CPPS
Korean researchers recommend that men with premature ejaculation (PE) be screened for chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) and vice versa.
While studies have shown links between PE and CP/CPPS before, the bulk of that research has focused on men younger than 40 years. As CP/CPPS risk increases with age, the scientists wanted to study an older population.
They collected data from 8,261 men with a mean age of 50.4 years. The participants completed questionnaires related to erectile dysfunction (ED), PE, and prostatitis. Metabolic status and testosterone levels were also checked.
The researchers found a correlation between scores on chronic prostatitis and PE assessments. They also discovered that the more severe a man's pelvic pain, the higher his risk for PE.
