Of all male health problems, premature ejaculation is the most hidden and least talked about. This is partly due to the private and emotional sphere it occupies and partly due to the nature of the problem itself. That said PE is one of the most common health problems faced by men and it is believed that around 30% of men suffer from it.
Some medical experts, in particular andrologists, estimate the actual percentage of men affected by premature ejaculation to be up to 35-40%, however often the problem is buried away and alternative means of resolving the issue are sought, generally online.
Men are fundamentally afraid of falling victim to the sexual prejudice and marginalisation which comes with admitting to suffering from premature ejaculation, making the decision to visit a GP more difficult. In many cases partners are unaware of their other half’s health problems, because men find means by which to mask the condition.
One choice made by men unable to hide their sexual dysfunction is to opt for sexual abstinence: that is avoiding sex or having less sex in order to avoid losing face. So it seems the tougher sex will actively choose to sacrifice their sex lives altogether rather than face a potentially embarrassing situation.
Those men who choose to see their doctor for treatment wait a year on average before taking action. What most men don’t know is that there are several valid treatment options available to them; they just need to seek them out.
Visiting a doctor for treatment is the best course of action to take especially as pharmacological advances have led to the development of a drug called Priligy Dapoxetina . Priligy works by increasing the levels of serotonin in the brain, a chemical substance which is fundamental to sex. Take one tablet around an hour or two before sexual intercourse. The active ingredient will remain so for up to four hours, during which period it is possible to have a longer lasting erection and more satisfying intercourse.
