Most men know premature ejaculation is common. In fact, almost every man in the world has experienced it at one time or another. As a result, men tend to approach the issue in one of two extreme ways. Either they never worry about it and assume the condition will right itself over time or they immediately become convinced that it’s a sign of a larger health issue and develop extreme stress and anxiety about it, which only makes it worse.
Finding a Fairly Happy Medium
The truth is that premature ejaculation is both perfectly normal and something men should keep an eye on. This can seem like a mixed message but actually, it’s about men taking a more active role in their health and using sexual performance as a barometer for their overall health and fitness levels.
When any sexual performance problems strikes, it’s usually the result of stress, anxiety and outside factors such as a person’s diet or their level of exercise. In fact, this is where most doctors – and men – turn to first when anything hampers their sexual performance. In many cases, simple steps to improve a man’s overall health are effective in successfully reversing the condition.
But, for some, steps to improve their health may improve some areas of their life, but it doesn’t tackle the problem of premature ejaculation. These men may then turn to numbing agents, a variety of supplements or the off-label use of prescription medication. This last alternative has become increasingly popular as men want something that will help immediately, but that still doesn’t actually correct the issue.
Finding the Right Treatment, Finding the Source
For most men, the root cause of sexual performance problems has to do with stress, anxiety or poor health. Dealing with any of these root causes can take time and patience – something men don’t often have once they’ve been struggling with early ejaculation, impotence or lowered libido for some time.
This is where seeking out the help of a doctor can be helpful. When simple healthy steps don’t offer improvement within a few weeks, having a full check-up can help. Getting checked out by your doctor can help male treatments to be more effective since it alleviates much of the anxiety associated with the condition. It also gives your doctor the chance to ensure your prostate is healthy and that your heart and cardiovascular system is performing as it should as well. Finally, it opens the channels of communication to discuss short-term solutions such as the use of medications, as well as long-term help in addressing any underlying cause. Aside from the routine causes of early ejaculation, it’s true that some serious medical conditions can be a cause as well. These can include diabetes, heart disease and high blood pressure – all of which can be treated, managed and even cured when under the care of a doctor and nutritionist.
Most of the time, a case of premature ejaculation is nothing to worry about. Stress, anxiety or even a weekend spent indulging in rich food can take its toll when it comes to bedroom performance. But when the condition doesn’t improve after proactive steps are taken, it’s time to have things checked out. Even then, chances are it’s nothing more than a reflection of some poor health choices, but getting a clean bill of health can help make both short and long term treatments more effective. Getting checked out by a doctor and booking in time with a fitness instructor or nutritionist can also improve your health and your sexual performance beyond resolving the immediate issue. Taking an active role in your personal health can improve every aspect of your life, alleviate stress and improve your sex life by increasing stamina and libido. At the end of the day, many men see the beginning of a performance problem not as something to fear – but as a wake-up call to take control and have the sex life they always wanted.
