Masturbation itself doesn't cause premature ejaculation, but excessive or hurried habits may affect control. Premature ejaculation is typically defined as ejaculating within a minute of penetration or before the person wishes, and it often causes distress or relationship issues. If this happens frequently, it might be helpful to consult a healthcare provider.
