Premature ejaculation is a problem which affects millions of men all over the world. It’s a condition that can strike any man, any time, regardless of age and cross into all social and economic classes. But in spite of how prevalent the problem is, people are still uncomfortable discussing the problem openly and, as a result, many men suffer for too long in silence. The worst part is that, with all the treatment options available, men could solve their problem fairly quickly if they would simply deal with it head on.
Getting Past Your Fears
One of the biggest reasons men don’t want to talk about premature ejaculation or see a doctor is fear. A lot of men assume that a problem with premature ejaculation automatically means a problem with the prostate so, of course it’s going to be prostate cancer. Whoa, fella. Let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Premature ejaculation can be the result of just about anything – from a poor diet or stress at work to more serious medical conditions. Yes, it’s possible that the problem could be serious but the chances are pretty slim. By and large, the vast majority of premature ejaculation problems are rooted in nutrition and emotional well being. This is why so many supplements have become available – the problem is one which is incredibly fixable.
However, it’s important to speak to your doctor for a number of reasons. First, there may be treatment options which don’t require you to take any medication or supplements. Sometimes a change in diet, increase in exercise or talking to a therapist is able to resolve the issue. It also lets your doctor rule out any other medical problem which will put your mind at ease, lessen your stress levels and go a long way in curing the condition.
Talking to Your Partner
Premature ejaculation affects both men and women though, obviously, in very different ways. For men, the impact is fairly obvious. But often, the impact on women is, of course, the impact it has on your relationship. Love has many difference facets to it and relationships are built on common interests, dynamic differences and, of course, a healthy sexual connection. So, although sex isn’t the only thing that matters in a relationship, it does matter.
If you are struggling with early ejaculation then it affects your partner as well. As you begin to investigate treatment options, make her a part of the process. Talk to her about what you plan to do or the advice your doctor gives. In the beginning, these conversations will obviously be somewhat awkward and difficult but if you take the leap and begin to talk about the problem it will become easier over time. Talking about it and establishing open lines of communication will help your relationship as well. Neither one of you will feel as though you are going through this alone and you can support one another as well. Making your partner a part of your treatment is probably one of the healthiest things you can due in terms of finding a successful solution.
Staying Positive
Treatment options for premature ejaculation can vary from case to case. In fact, many cases can potentially be solved with several different treatment options. As a result, you may need to try a few different options out before finding something that works for you. It can be easy to get discouraged during this process. This is where the open communication with your partner and healthy approach to the problem becomes absolutely vital. Both of these resources serve as a support system which will keep you motivated and positive.
Once you realise there’s no need to suffer with premature ejaculation you can begin to find the right treatment. Being open and talking to your doctor about your symptoms will rule out underlying medical conditions, identify possible causes and help you to find the solution best suited for your case and lifestyle. Making your partner an integral part of your treatment plan will also help to lower your stress while broadening you support network. This can not only aid in your recovery but also strengthen your relationship. All of this comes together to give you the best possible chance for a long term solution and a bright future for your sex life.
