At the March 2007 European Association of Urology ( EAU ) conference, J. Hyun, et. al. described a study that reviewed low-resolution brain electromagnetic tomography ( LORETA ) to determine if differences were present between men with premature ejaculation ( PE ) and otherwise healthy males. Participants were given electrocencephalographies ( EEG ) during a series of video segments (music videos vs. erotic videos) with periods of rest between each one.
The results demonstrate that there are differences between the men with premature ejaculation ( PE ) and healthy men. Various areas of the brain as indicated by the EEGs demonstrate less activity in men with premature ejaculation ( PE ) vs. healthy men. Researchers theorize that these changes could explain why these men are more sensitive to sexual stimuli than healthy men. There may also be involvement in the limbic system which was not a subject of the study. The limbic system has been indicated in mood control and ejaculatory control.
