title: Patient reported outcomes used in the assessment of premature ejaculation.
abstract: This article reviews the premature ejaculation (PE)-related patient-reported outcomes that have appeared in the published literature. Each questionnaire's psychometric properties and its benefits and limitations are examined and discussed. The authors hope this helps clinicians and researchers to identify brief, reliable, and valid measures that document treatment effects or identify men with PE.
