Abstract
Background: Premature ejaculation (PE) is defined as persistent or recurrent ejaculation with minimal sexual stimulation before, upon, or shortly after penetration and before the person wishes it. Aim and objectives: The aim of this study was to measure the serum level of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25 (OH) D) in lifelong premature ejaculation patients and evaluate the role of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25 (OH) D) supplementation in these patients with low or in sufficient level of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25 (OH) D). Subjects and methods: A total of 80 consecutive men who presented with lifelong PE. Results: The mean PEDT showed a statistically significant decrease after treatment. The mean IELT in the included cases before treatment with vitamin D is 31.14 ± 20.511 and the mean IELT in the included cases after treatment is 48.86 ± 26.432. The mean IELT showed a statistically significant increase after treatment. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that lower vitamin D levels are associated with the acquired PE. The result of our study showed that the role of serum vitamin D levels should be investigated in the etiology of acquired PE. Perhaps supplementation of vitamin D in men with acquired PE will ameliorate the sexual health of these patients.
