If the sexual excitement increases to a certain point, ejaculation is reached. This is also understood to mean ejaculation. Ejaculation occurs in two stages and is not only achieved by men (see female ejaculation).
What is ejaculation?
Ejaculation is the ejaculation of the male. This is associated with orgasm (the peak of sexual arousal). Ejaculation is the term used to describe the ejaculation of the man’s semen. This is associated with orgasm (the peak of sexual arousal). Some women can also achieve female ejaculation, which is also characterized by the discharge of secretions during orgasm. A prerequisite for ejaculation is sexual maturity. During ejaculation, another name for male ejaculation, sperm is ejected from the urethra in bursts. This is triggered by sexual stimuli, usually masturbation or intercourse. The muscles of the vas deferens, seminal vesicle, corpora cavernosa and pelvic floor are stimulated by rhythmic contractions, causing the sperm to be expelled from the penis. Orgasm is triggered by the sexual center in the diencephalon. These nerve impulses act on the nerve cells in the loin. These nerve fibers then trigger ejaculation. Ejaculation itself is divided into two phases. In the emission phase, the fluid of the seminal vesicle and the fluid of the prostate accumulate in the first section of the urethra. Ejaculation in the narrower sense, that is, the second phase, is the intermittent discharge of semen from the penis. When a sufficient amount of semen is produced, this process occurs. Once it occurs, this process cannot be stopped.
Function and task
In the formation of sperm, the prostate gland also performs an important task. The prostate glands produce a milky, cloudy, thin secretion. It contains enzymes that make sperm fluid. It also contains spermine. This ingredient is important for protecting the DNA (genetic information) and gives the sperm its typical odor. Prostate secretion forms about 20 to 30 percent of sperm. It is important for the man’s ability to procreate. The effusion can occur with or semen. Even boys can have a wet orgasm before puberty. In this case, there are no fertilizable sperm yet. During an ejaculation from puberty onwards, a human ejaculates approximately between two to six milliliters of sperm. However, this is only an approximation; considerably more is also possible. The degree of arousal of the man is decisive for the amount of sperm. The time since the last ejaculation also plays a role. The amount of ejaculated sperm therefore varies and the longer the erection phase lasts, the more volume the man ejaculates. After the ejection of semen, there is a refractory phase or recovery phase. This is the period after orgasm that is necessary to have another orgasm. During this time, further ejaculation is generally not possible.
Diseases and complaints
Under normal conditions, male orgasm is associated with ejaculation. However, if diseases are present, orgasm may occur without ejaculation. Ejaculation without orgasm is also possible. Some men suffer symptoms of post-orgasmic illness syndrome after ejaculation. These symptoms include increased body temperature, sweating, and chills. Fatigue and exhaustion are also symptoms of illness. The symptoms are similar to those of the flu. A potency problem of ejaculation is premature ejaculation. In this case, ejaculation often occurs with a kiss or light touch. The man is hardly able to control the time of ejaculation, which is mostly a process controlled by the head. Strong excitement can be a cause. This is among the most common ejaculation problems. Delayed ejaculation can also be a difficulty that men struggle with. Here, neurological problems can be the cause. If the man is not able to ejaculate, it is called anejaculation. It is the failure to ejaculate. Causes are usually an injury to the spinal cord, a nerve disease such as multiple sclerosis, a metabolic disease, or pelvic surgery. Taking medications can also promote this disorder. Rarely, a psychological cause is the problem in anejaculation.Spermatorrhea can occur in the event of insufficiency of the end section of the vas deferens. Seminal fluid then flows out of the urethra without sexual arousal. If the end section of the vas deferens is blocked, this can also be the cause of low ejaculation volume. The older the man gets, the worse the coordination of the contractions of the epididymal duct, vas deferens, vesicular gland, prostate gland, urethra and pelvic floor muscles. Loss of coordination can result in permanent erectile dysfunction. Diagnosis of ejaculatory disorders is usually based on the information provided by the affected person. During the conversation with the doctor, the sexual life is described in detail and the partner is often part of the conversation as well. In most cases, dissatisfaction with the sexual life is also the decisive factor for the ejaculation difficulties. In order to be able to exclude an underlying disease, a diagnostic procedure in the form of a laboratory examination of blood and urine is also performed. This examination is performed by a urologist. If the cause is psychological, it helps many sufferers to talk to their partner about the problems. This is the first and often decisive step in reducing ejaculation difficulties. If the problems persist, it is advisable to consult a psychologist, unless there is a medical background for the disorder.
