Sexual activity is not only a way to enhance intimacy and connection between partners, but also a channel for emotional communication and pleasure. Most people find various kinds of joy and satisfaction in their sex lives.

However, in recent years, the number of men experiencing sexual health problems such as premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction has been increasing. Many men finish too soon—sometimes right after starting.

So, how long can a healthy man typically last during sex?

👉 Average Duration by Age:

• Men aged 20–30: Usually last around 10–15 minutes
• Men aged 30–40: Can last about 5–15 minutes, depending on physical and mental condition
• Men over 45: Duration typically decreases as sexual function gradually declines with age

✅ Why Do Some Men Struggle with Short Duration?

1. Lack of technique: Some men may not have full control over ejaculation due to poor technique, psychological pressure, or physical issues—leading to shorter duration during intercourse.
2. Sexual dysfunction: If a man regularly ejaculates very quickly and this issue persists, it may be a sign of sexual dysfunction. If not treated in time, this could lead to erectile dysfunction. Common causes include prostatitis, inflammation of the glans, and other urinary or reproductive system issues.

✅ What Can Men Do If They Don’t Last Long?

When sexual performance is frequently affected by short duration—especially if caused by sexual dysfunction—it can lead to ED, reduce the quality of intimacy, and bring both partners dissatisfaction.

Men may feel increased psychological pressure, while women may feel emotionally and physically unfulfilled.

✅ Understanding Sex Duration the Right Way

It’s important to have a realistic understanding of sexual performance. Don’t be misled by movies or exaggerated claims—lasting 30 minutes isn’t necessary or even ideal. In fact, around 5 minutes of penetration is already considered normal in a healthy relationship.

Sex is not about how long it lasts, but how satisfying it is for both people.

✅ What You Can Do Daily:

To improve energy and support sexual health, men are encouraged to drink herbal teas that nourish the liver and kidneys, such as: 👉

As long as sexual activity feels satisfying and enjoyable, that is already a “normal” amount of time. Sexual health is about quality, not quantity. Don’t push yourself or your partner to extend the act unnaturally. Prolonged intercourse could even lead to gynecological issues in women or prostatitis in men.
