Premature ejaculation is a sexual problem that could adversely affect the marriage. In premature ejaculation, semen is discharged immediately or very shortly after the commencement of sexual activity-within 30 to 60 seconds- whereas the normal period aught to be 2 to 3 minutes.

Due to this condition, the woman remains sexually unsatisfied and this could lead to a problematic marital relationship. Furthermore, it is also a cause of not being able to have children. These have serious implications on the marriage and thus this situation needs to be remedied as swiftly as possible.

There are two fundamental causes to this problematic condition:

1. Thinness of semen
2. Weakness of nerves in the private organ; both these conditions can be remedied with suitable and authentic medical treatment.

As for as thinness of semen is concerned, certain suitable foods and vitamins (Refer Chapter 8) should ease the problem. Also excessive sex should most definitely be avoided as this will cause thinness of the semen and weaken the nerves of the private organ which are the primary causes of premature ejaculation and eventually, sexual impotency.

According to Hakeem Razi excessive sex will cause:

1. Young men to become old.
2. Old men to “Sleep” forever (i.e. death)
3. Healthy men to become weak and sick
4. Weak and Sick men to perish;

Therefore, until a strong, genuine, and persistent urge to indulge in sexual intercourse does not exist, it should be avoided at all costs.
