Patient's question:
I have had the habit of masturbation for six years, having sexual intercourse two or three times a week. This year, when I started cohabiting with my girlfriend, I discovered that I have premature ejaculation and its symptoms. Every time we have sex, it lasts less than a few minutes. My girlfriend has started to get annoyed with me. Can premature ejaculation and its symptoms be cured?Doctor's answer:
Erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation can be treated and cured. If you can achieve normal erections during sexual activity, it does not qualify as premature ejaculation. If the duration of intercourse is over two minutes, it is not considered premature ejaculation, and these conditions do not require treatment. However, if the duration is consistently less than two minutes for a long period, a treatment plan may need to be reconsidered. The primary treatment approach focuses on reducing sensitivity while adjusting emotional well-being to prevent psychological premature ejaculation. Premature ejaculation is prone to recurring, requiring long-term medication to manage. For male patients, it is essential to seek professional and reputable medical attention promptly. Treatment should be based on thorough examination results. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking, maintain good personal hygiene, and wish all patients a speedy recovery.
