Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am experiencing early ejaculation, typically within one to two seconds after insertion. This issue is affecting my marriage life, making it less enjoyable. Please help.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concerns regarding your symptoms.

Premature ejaculation can have various causes, including:

  1. Stressful work, such as night duties or high-pressure jobs.
  2. Conditions like diabetes, hypertension, and thyroid issues can contribute to premature ejaculation. Keeping blood sugar, blood pressure, and thyroid hormones under control is essential.
  3. Long-term use of medications for hypertension or psychiatric conditions.
  4. Habits like frequent masturbation or prone masturbation.
  5. Excessive exposure to pornography.
  6. Insufficient foreplay from a partner or lack of knowledge about foreplay and female masturbation.
  7. Feelings of guilt from having an affair.
  8. Lack of exercise and obesity.

To address this, I would suggest you consider checking FBS (fasting blood sugar) and PPBS (postprandial blood sugar) for diabetes, monitoring blood pressure, and assessing Free T3 (Triiodothyronine), T4 (Thyroxine), and TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) levels for thyroid issues. As a temporary solution, you can try using the tablet Duralast (Dapoxetine) 30mg.

Natural methods include:

  1. Ensuring an adequate duration of foreplay during sex (15-20 minutes for women, 10-15 minutes for men) to promote proper blood supply to the penis.
  2. Creating a relaxed atmosphere during foreplay, possibly incorporating relaxing music.
  3. Trying to delay condoms.

Remember, sex is not a race, and duration does not necessarily determine satisfaction. Focus on building a deeper connection with your partner, learn about female masturbation, and aim to provide your partner with orgasmic satisfaction rather than focusing solely on penetration.

Hope this information helps you.

Thank you.
