Ejaculation climax interval?

I got circumcised 3 months ago and since then I had wet dreams occasionally happening and the interval between me reaching climax and me ejaculating semen has gone from 30 seconds or so to practically 0. I want to focus more on the b part of my question. Is it normal for this interval to change after circumcision and what is that "interval" called?

The interval you are discussing to is often called the "ejaculatory latency time" or "ejaculatory latency period." This term describes the time duration between the sensation of reaching the point of no return (the moment of unavoidability of ejaculation) and the actual ejaculation of semen.

Fluctuations in ejaculatory latency time can occur due to various factors, including psychological, physiological, and surgical interventions such as circumcision. While most studies on circumcision focus on its effects on sensitivity and sexual function, changes in ejaculatory latency time are less frequently discussed but can still occur.

It's not abnormal for men to experience changes in their sexual function after circumcision, including variations in sensitivity, arousal, and ejaculation. These changes might be temporary as your body adjusts to the surgical modifications. However, if you find that this change in ejaculatory latency time is persistent or bothersome, it might be beneficial to discuss it with your urologist or a sexual health specialist.
