What is delayed ejaculation?

Delayed ejaculation, also called delayed orgasm, happens when you take a long time and need a lot of stimulation to reach sexual climax and ejaculate (the term for when semen is forcefully pushed out of your penis). In some cases, you might not ejaculate at all.

Delayed ejaculation, also called delayed orgasm, was previously called male orgasmic disorder. The inability to ejaculate is called anejaculation. Being unable to reach a climax (orgasm) is called anorgasmia.

There’s really no “normal” time limit for how long it should take to orgasm. However, if you have delayed ejaculation, the time it does take may cause stress for you and possibly for your partner.
