Regain Control With Premature Ejaculation Treatment

What is Premature Ejaculation?

PE is when a male ejaculates during sexual play or intercourse sooner than he or his partner would like. Although common among men, it’s a cause for concern if the problem happens frequently.  

You may be experiencing premature ejaculation if you:

• Always or nearly always ejaculate within one minute of penetration
• Are unable to delay ejaculation during intercourse all or nearly all of the time
• Ejaculate without the need for penetration
• Feel distressed and frustrated, and tend to avoid sexual intimacy as a result

What Causes Premature Ejaculation?

Many men experience PE from time to time. Whether you’re feeling a bit under the weather or particularly aroused, it’s a normal sexual glitch. But if it happens every time you engage in sexual relations, it’s best to take action. The more time that goes by without treatment, the worse the problem is likely to get. Naturally, anxiety tends to increase when you expect things to go wrong, making things more likely to go wrong. If the problem is not in the plumbing, it must be in your head.

That’s where we come in. Like any sexual complication, premature ejaculation can have deep and tangled psychological roots. Techniques like NLP, hypnotherapy and mindfulness are designed to (in different ways) identify and manipulate patterns of thought and reaction so that they can work for you, rather than against you. Learning meditation and relaxation techniques may also help you derail anxiety before it derails you.

Symptoms Of Premature Ejaculation

1. Ejaculation that Occurs Before or Within One Minute: This refers to ejaculation that always or nearly always happens before or after penetration during sexual intercourse.
2. Inability to Delay Ejaculation: There’s a lack of control over ejaculation, and orgasm occurs before it is wanted.
3. Negative Personal Consequences: Deep feelings of distress, embarrassment, frustration, and avoidance of sexual intimacy due to the condition.
4. Reduced Sexual Activity & Pleasure: Because of the rapid climax, both people involved might experience a reduction in overall sexual satisfaction.
5. Avoidance of Sexual Situations: The fear of not being able to perform can make the problem worse and can lead to men avoiding intimate situations completely.
6. Emotional Distress and Relationship Problems: Premature ejaculation may lead to feelings of inadequacy, low self-esteem, and difficulties in romantic relationships.

It’s important to note that premature ejaculation is very common throughout a man’s life, happening maybe once or twice and is not a cause for concern. But for some men premature ejaculation can be lifelong, and have serious impacts on intimacy and mental health. If this is the case then it’s advisable to seek medical advice from a certified health care provider.
