Early ejaculation is a common condition, but that doesn’t mean it is always well understood. The fact of the matter is that there are a number of myths which are simply downright
lies. We’ve brought together six of the most common misconceptions in order to lay them to rest once and for all. So sit back and prepare to have your mind blown when it comes to conventional wisdom about sexual performance problems.
It’s Just a Part of Getting Older
It’s true that men are more likely to experience sexual performance issues as they age, but that doesn’t mean everything they experience is inevitable. Actually, the opposite is true. Since we know some forms of sexual dysfunction are often related to lower testosterone levels, that means men have a head start when it comes to battling the issues. Today there are plenty of low-T clinics where men can monitor their levels and ensure they keep things running normally without having to wait for problems to crop up.
It Only Happens to Sick Men
Since early ejaculation is seen as a dysfunction, many people assume it only happens if a person is unwell. Some men think experiencing any kind of sexual dysfunction is a precursor to coming down with a cold or some other ailment. Sexual performance isn’t often linked to your immune system, but it can be a reflection of your overall health. Still, experiencing premature ejaculation should not be seen as an early warning sign for wintry colds. It should, however, make you more aware of your overall health since erectile health relies heavily on the cardiovascular and nervous systems.
If It Happens, It’s Already Too Late
Some guys think that once you start having problems, there’s just no going back. Experiencing chronic sexual dysfunction can be frustrating and makes men feel as though it becomes a vicious cycle. Once they believe this, it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. The only way to break free of this self-imprisonment is to break that cycle. Change up your approach by taking a proactive role in improving your sex life. Simply taking action and seeing the problem with a different perspective can make a huge difference on the results men experience.
Just Because it Happens Once, Doesn’t Mean it Will Happen Again
At the other end of the spectrum are the guys who think one episode of early ejaculation means nothing. On the one hand, it’s good that these guys don’t overreact. At the same time, it’s important to take note when these things happen as they can be the result of poor habits which, left uncorrected, can begin to affect your health in more serious ways. A single episode is certainly no cause for alarm, but if it comes at a time when you’re feeling tired, sluggish or having a hard time concentrating then it’s worth the time to examine your health habits in general to see if there is anything that could be improved.
It’s Only a Problem When Something Else is Wrong
When early ejaculation occurs and there’s nothing else wrong, men figure it doesn’t have to be addressed. But this sets them up for the condition to worsen and intensify. Left unchecked, early ejaculation can easily lead to other sexual performance problems including erectile dysfunction. It can also lead to increased stress and anxiety which can kill your sex drive and exacerbate other health conditions.
Ignoring It is not an Option
Here’s the bottom line: early ejaculation may be common, but it isn’t normal. While it’s important not to over-react, it’s also important not to completely disregard the issue. Look at your sexual health as a barometer of how your health is faring overall. Addressing underlying issues with a clear mind and at the earliest sign of problems gives you a chance to be proactive and learn which treatment approaches are the best fit now and for long-term success.
