Premature Ejaculation-
Hampering Men's Sexual Health
Many men infrequently ejaculate sooner than they or
their partner would like during sexual
intercourse. As long as it happens occasionally,
it's probably not cause for alarm. However, if you ejaculate
sooner on a regular basis you might be suffering from
a condition known as premature ejaculation.
In some cases, premature ejaculation is a secondary
problem related to erectile
dysfunction. Men who are anxious about obtaining
or maintaining their erection during sexual intercourse
may form a pattern of rushing to ejaculate.
Signs and symptoms
There's no medical standard for how long it should take
a man to ejaculate. The primary sign of premature ejaculation
is ejaculation that occurs before both partners wish
in the majority of sexual encounters, causing distress
for one or both partners. Doctors often classify premature
ejaculation as either primary or secondary:
- Primary Premature ejaculation -
You have primary premature ejaculation if you've experienced
the problem for as long as you've been sexually active.
- Secondary Premature ejaculation -
You have secondary premature ejaculation if you developed
the condition after having had previous, satisfying
sexual relationships without ejaculatory problems.
Causes
Premature ejaculation is considered a psychological
problem in some cases. Some doctors believe that early
sexual experiences, especially those in which you may
have hurried to reach climax in order to avoid being
discovered, may establish a lifelong pattern. If you
grew up in a family that considered sex dirty or sinful,
you may also have developed guilty feelings that increase
your tendency to rush through sexual encounters.
Medications
You may need to take medications on a daily basis to
prevent premature ejaculation. Taking a low dose several
hours before you plan to have sexual intercourse may
be sufficient to improve your symptoms. Talk with your
doctor to determine the best medication schedule for
your needs.
Some topical anesthetic creams also may help improve
premature ejaculation by reducing sensation. Before
use, make certain you should check up your history that
you are not affected in a negative manner by the use
of these medicines. Some exercise may also help in this
case.
effective in most cases, and almost free of side effects.
This is a wonderful advancement! Please proceed with
caution and examine where it fits into your relationship.
