What Is The Normal Time Before Ejaculation?

I had to get a full physical this week for work. The doctor had me remove all clothes because he said he had to check my prostate and penis. When he got to the penis exam he spent a lot of time rubbing and feeling the shaft and immediately got an erection which was me embarrassing. He then explain what he was looking for and took another 5mins rubbing up and down and I ejaculated. Is this normal?

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

In young males, normal time for ejaculation can be 5 to 10 minutes. If you are in your 20s or 30s then this is perfectly normal.

There are 4 stages of penis responses in male sexual behaviour.

1. Stage One: Excitement
2. Stage Two: Plateau
3. Orgasm & Ejaculation
4. Stage Four: Resolution

As you were already excited and had reached a plateau phase, on rubbing for 5 minutes it led to orgasm and ejaculation. This interval of 5 minutes between plateau phase and orgasm is normal in young men. Some men have a hypersensitive penis skin and you might be one among them. This is not abnormal. Also at times ejaculation gets out of control due to rubbing and this is what happened to you.
