Question

Premature ejaculation is a part of which phase of sexual disorders?

• A. Excitement phase
• B. Plateau phase
• C. Orgasm phase
• D. Refractory phase

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Premature ejaculation is classified under the orgasm phase of sexual response cycles. It occurs when ejaculation happens sooner during sexual intercourse than a person or their partner wishes, which can lead to distress and interpersonal difficulties. Understanding the phases:

• Excitement phase: Initial arousal and physiological responses begin.
• Plateau phase: A period of consistent intensity before orgasm.
• Orgasm phase: Peak of sexual pleasure, leading to ejaculation in males.
• Refractory phase: Period after orgasm where further arousal isn’t possible immediately.

Premature ejaculation is specifically related to the challenges in controlling ejaculation, thus categorizing it within the orgasm phase.
