The urologists explained that premature ejaculation is primarily a sexual performance issue rather than a fertility disorder. Experts say premature ejaculation is a common problem that affects 30 percent to 40 perc ent of men. “Premature ejaculation does not preclude impregnation of a woman because, for fertilisation to take place, you just need a spermatozoon and an ovum to meet. So, in essence, we can say yes, people who have premature ejaculation can still impregnate a woman, but the chances may be reduced significantly,” Fadeyi said. “Also, if someone has experienced trauma or has a lot of psychological stress, that can contribute to premature ejaculation,” he said.
