TCM treatment of premature ejaculation

When premature ejaculation occurs, the patient will feel his emotions fluctuating, and even suffer from sexual dysfunction. If this continues for a long time, it will not be good for the sex life between husband and wife, and it will become quite disharmonious. At this time, it is best to use Chinese medicine to slowly regulate it, so that you can gradually improve your condition from the root.

1. Psychotherapy

It requires collaboration between husband and wife, and it is especially important for the wife to participate in the treatment. Psychological treatment for premature ejaculation requires the cooperation of the patient's wife. The woman's misunderstanding or complaints will increase the man's tension and anxiety, increasing his psychological burden. The woman should be considerate and caring, and give verbal and behavioral comfort to relieve the man's nervousness and help him build confidence in recovery. Both husband and wife should be informed that premature ejaculation is a relatively common problem. Both husband and wife need to understand the necessity and possibility of rebuilding the conditioned reflex of ejaculation, eliminate the patient's abnormal psychology such as anxiety, uneasiness, and guilt, and build confidence in curing the disease. As long as both parties cooperate with the treatment, it can be cured.

2. Behavioral method guidance

The purpose of sexual focus training therapy is to teach patients to experience and enjoy sexual pleasure and overcome psychological barriers through tactile stimulation such as hugging, caressing, and massage. You can also pull the scrotum and testicles downward before reaching orgasm, or squeeze the glans with your thumb and index finger to reduce sexual excitement, which can also reduce the hardness of the erection by 10% to 25%. After long-term training, sexual intercourse is performed with the woman on top, and the twitch-stop-twitch form is still used for repeated training to gradually increase the ejaculation stimulation threshold, so as to achieve more satisfactory artificial control before ejaculation.

(1) Semans technique training is stop and start therapy. When the woman stimulates the penis until it is about to ejaculate, the man signals to stop stimulation immediately. After the premonition of ejaculation has completely disappeared, stimulation can be resumed. This process is repeated until the man can accept a large amount of stimulation, and then ejaculation is allowed. This method can increase the ejaculation threshold. After successful treatment, insist on performing controlled training once a week.

(2) The penis head squeezing method is also known as tolerance training. When the woman stimulates the penis until she feels that ejaculation is about to come, she places the tip of her thumb on the frenulum of the penis, and the tips of her index and middle fingers above and below the edge of the coronal sulcus on the other side of the penis. She applies pressure from front to back, to the degree that the man can tolerate, for about 3 to 4 seconds each time. This can relieve the sense of urgency during ejaculation. Persistent treatment for 3 to 6 months can achieve lasting and stable therapeutic effects.

3. Oral medication

Currently, the main drug treatments are serotonin reuptake inhibitors such as sertraline and paroxetine; tricyclic antidepressants such as clomipramine and fluoxetine, etc. However, these drugs have certain side effects and must be taken under the guidance of a doctor.
