How do you treat premature ajaculation?
There are a number of treatments for premature ejaculation (PE). These include:
* Behavioral techniques: These techniques can help men learn how to delay ejaculation. They include:
* The stop-start technique: This involves stopping sexual activity just before ejaculation and then starting again.
* The squeeze technique: This involves squeezing the head of the penis just before ejaculation to delay ejaculation.
* Medication: There are a number of medications that can be used to treat PE. These include:
* Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs): These antidepressants can help delay ejaculation by increasing the levels of serotonin in the brain.
* Phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (PDE5 inhibitors): These medications can help improve erectile function and delay ejaculation.
* Surgery: In some cases, surgery may be an option for treating PE. This may be necessary if other treatments have not been effective.
It is important to talk to a doctor about the best treatment option for PE.
