This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I had a circumcision done at an earlier age. I am facing a problem of premature ejaculation whenever I try to have sex. Please help.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Circumcision is just the surgical method of removing the foreskin from the human penis. It does not cause premature ejaculation nor does it have any effect on sexual performance.

The main reason for premature ejaculation is performance anxiety.

Sometimes, decreased well being, as in poor health and general weakness also cause premature ejaculation.
