What are the treatments for premature ejaculation?

Patient's question:

I have always had a harmonious sex life with my wife, but recently, I don't know whether it's because of the high pressure from my work or other reasons, we often experience premature ejaculation during intimacy. Sometimes, I even find it difficult to get hard.

Doctor's answer:

Treatment Methods for Premature Ejaculation
1. Behavioral Therapy: Behavioral therapy includes increasing ejaculation frequency, adopting the woman-on-top sexual position, stopping and starting during ejaculation, thrusting, and pelvic floor muscle exercises. The short-term success rate is 95%, but long-term follow-up results show that 75% of patients still experience the same symptoms three years after treatment. Therefore, behavioral therapy only has long-term effects on a small portion of premature ejaculation patients.
2. Medication Therapy: Advances in neuropharmacology have made it possible to use several effective medications to treat premature ejaculation caused by physical factors or other diseases, with the hope of restoring normal sexual life for patients.
3. Surgical Therapy: If the above treatments are ineffective, surgical therapy can also be considered.
