Patient's question:
Each time I have sex with my wife, my erection duration is short, lasting less than a minute before ejaculation. What should I do about a short erection during sexual intercourse?Doctor's answer:
Hello: The stimulus threshold is like a "threshold." When it's too low, any stimulus can cross it and cause a response in the tissue, leading to excessive excitability of the tissue. When it's too high, few stimuli can cross it, and the tissue rarely responds, resulting in low excitability. Therefore, the key to treating premature ejaculation lies in raising this "threshold," which means increasing the stimulus threshold. Generally, we often use the following methods to treat it.Both partners participate in the treatment. Education on sexual physiology and other aspects is provided to both partners to alleviate mental tension and eliminate fear. Some men may experience one or two instances of premature ejaculation after marriage due to unusual excitement, which is not uncommon. It's important not to assume a serious illness just because of occasional premature ejaculation. As long as the issue of sex is handled correctly and a regular sexual life is maintained, premature ejaculation can be completely avoided.
The pain caused by premature ejaculation affects both partners. The female may develop dissatisfaction, disdain, or even hostility towards the male due to long-term unfulfilled sexual desire or the inability to conceive. Therefore, it's important for the female to recognize that this lack of control is due to mental factors or other diseases. If the male experiences premature ejaculation, the female should show extra care, tenderness, and emotional support, which can help the male recover more quickly.
Change sexual positions. For example, adopting the female-on-top position allows the female to perform vigorous friction on the sexual organs while the male, in a passive position, remains relaxed with low excitability, enabling both partners to reach climax simultaneously. Alternatively, the side position can be used to avoid intense hip movement and reduce blood diversion from the pelvis to the lower limbs due to pelvic congestion syndrome. Because it requires less effort,
