Abstract
Hyaluronic acid (HA) or hyaluronan is a linear nonsulphated glycosaminoglycan found
commonly in the vertebrate extracellular matrix (ECM).It forms a strikingly viscoelastic matrix,
which in part serves as a medium for connective tissue cells and it has been implicated in
chondrogenesis and cartilage homeostasis, embryonic development, immunomodulation, wound
healing, and a variety of disease processes, including arthritis, malignancies, and pulmonary and
vascular disease, together with other immune and inflammatory disorders.Hyaluronic acid in
specific is now used in the form of gel injections which were injected in the dermis of the penile skin
just above the nerve terminals, allowing to achieve a volume sufficient to prevent Premature
ejaculation and reduce the intensity of stimuli reaching sensory receptor's. Study evaluated the
effect of hyaluronic acid in 60 men affected by PE, demonstrating that (IELT) increased 1 month
after the injection of the compound in their penis. Multiple studies showed that HA injection could
significantly increase the intra-vaginal latency time (IELT) (2.43- to 4.46-fold), and this increase could
persist for long term (up to 5 years)
