: what causes this and what treatment will effectivly cure it.
It is critical that this issue be addressed with a health care provider with whom
the person or couple can feel comfortable and openly discuss sexual behaviors
and concerns.
Treatment may involve the provider simply explaining why premature
ejaculation occurs, assuring the person or couple that it is a normal part of the
male sexual response, and providing techniques that may assist the man in
learning to delay ejaculation.
Such techniques may include:
The "stop and start" method:
This involves sexual stimulation until the man recognizes that he is about
to ejaculate; the stimulation is then removed for about thirty seconds
and then may be resumed. The sequence is repeated until ejaculation is
desired, the final time allowing the stimulation to continue until
ejaculation occurs.
The "squeeze" method
This involves sexual stimulation until the man recognizes that he is about
to ejaculate; at that point, the man or his partner gently squeezes the
end of the penis (where the glans meets the shaft) for several seconds,
withholding further sexual stimulation for about 30 seconds, and then
resuming stimulation. The sequence may be repeated by the person or
couple until ejaculation is desired, the final time allowing the stimulation
to continue until ejaculation occurs.
If pronounced psychological or interpersonal factors appear to be involved,
professional counseling or psychotherapy may be necessary.
Prognosis
In about 95% of cases, the man is able to learn ejaculatory control through
education and practice of the simple techniques outlined.
Complications
Very early ejaculation, occurring prior to entry into the vagina, may
prohibit a desired pregnancy.
A continued lack of ejaculatory control may lead to sexual
dissatisfaction on the part of either or both members of the couple and
be a factor in sexual tension or discord in the relationship in general.
Calling your health care provider
Call for an appointment with your health care provider if premature ejaculation
is causing a problem and it does not respond to the methods described aboved.
