Doctors around the world are looking for ways to diagnose and treat premature ejaculation.
As of now there are no universally recognized definitions of the condition and there are no prescription drugs approved by the FDA to treat it.
Stanley E Althof wrote an interesting article in the November 2007 edition of the Urologic Clinics of North America, where he reviews the way doctors assess and treat premature ejaculation from the point of view of the patient.
The PEDT, premature ejaculation diagnostic tool measures this condition in five different categories.
It measures difficulty in delaying ejaculation, ejaculating before the patient desired, ejaculating with little stimulation, frustration related to the rapid ejaculation and concerns about the sexual fulfillment of the partner.
Althof points out in his article that the PEDT is ideal and has excellent sensitivity when diagnosing premature ejaculation ( PE ).
