Possible Pathophysiological Roles of Neurotransmitter Systems in Men With Lifelong Premature Ejaculation: Protocol for a Scoping Review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Lifelong premature ejaculation (LPE) is a rare sexual condition believed to be caused by genetic neurobiological disorders. In the field of LPE, 2 main types of research have been conducted: direct genetic research and pharmacotherapeutic interference of neurotransmitter systems that can relieve the symptoms of LPE in male patients.

Objective

We aim to provide an overview of studies on neurotransmitter systems as the pathophysiological cause of LPE by investigating direct genetic research or pharmacotherapeutic interference that relieves the main symptom of LPE in male patients.

Methods

This scoping review will use the PRISMA-ScR tool (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews). In addition, this study
