Abstract

Background: Premature ejaculation (PME) is defined as ejaculation with the minimal sexual stimulation before, on or shortly after penetration and or before a person wishes it. Objective: The objective of the study is to determine the mean change in intra vaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT) after administration of tramadol in patients of premature ejaculation. Setting: This Quasi experimental study was conducted in Department of Urology, University Teaching Hospital/DHQ Gujranwala from April 1st, 2017 to September 30th, 2017. A total of 115 cases fulfilling the inclusion/exclusion criteria will be enrolled. Detailed history for premature ejaculation was taken. Premature ejaculation was diagnosed by a urologist with 10 years of experience. All cases were advised to receive 50 mg tramadol. The time of drug administration was 3 - 6 hours before sexual intercourse. Results: In this study, out of 115 cases, 44.35% (n=51) were between 20-40 years of age whereas 55.65%(n=64) were between 41-60 years of age, mean+SD was calculated as 43.07+10.11 years. Mean change in intra vaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT) after administration of tramadol in patients of premature ejaculation shows that at baseline IELT was 69.08+4.90 seconds, after treatment it was recorded as 260.32+21.25 seconds and shows that mean change was 194.24+21.44 seconds, it shows a significant difference by calculating p value as 0.000. Conclusion: We concluded that the mean change is significantly higher in intra vaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT) after administration of tramadol in patients of premature ejaculation.
