November 27, 2024

Sex is typically measured in pleasure rather than time, but for those finishing faster than they would like, this pleasure may be reduced. It’s crucial to realise that short intercourse duration is not a problem if it’s enough for a couple to fully enjoy the process. However, if one or both partners remain unsatisfied, it’s worth getting professional help to treat premature ejaculation.

PE is a common ejaculation problem that can not only impact a man’s self esteem, cause distress, and result in feelings of embarrassment and inadequacy but also provoke relationship issues and worsen emotional intimacy in a couple. Fortunately, there are many ways to improve the sexual performance of a man, and a qualified premature ejaculation therapist aims to provide a comprehensive solution to the problem to make sex last longer and cultivate a more fulfilling intimate experience.

What is Premature Ejaculation (PE)?

PE is a type of sexual dysfunction when a man ejaculates more rapidly than he or his significant other would like this to happen during intercourse. Premature release of semen may occur before or shortly after penetration, usually with minimal sexual stimulation.  

Nearly every man has experienced the issue at some time or another without requiring any treatment, but if the following symptoms take place regularly, it’s worth turning to a professional:

  • Ejaculation happens within 1-3 minutes of penetration or shortly after sexual arousal
  • Inability to control ejaculation
  • Feeling frustrated and distressed as a result

Facts and Statistics about PE

  • PE can be lifelong or acquired as well as occur only with a specific partner or under specific circumstances
  • About 20-30% of men are affected by PE to some degree
  • The condition can be associated with erectile dysfunction and rapid loss of erection after semen release

Common Physical Causes of Premature Ejaculation

Physical factors that may cause too fast ejaculation during sexual intimacy are:

  • Hormonal issues
  • Low dopamine or serotonin levels
  • The habit of ejaculating quickly due to the fear of being caught masturbating
  • Hypersensitivity of the glans penis
  • Prostate problems
  • Erectile dysfunction
  • Cognitive distortions
  • Thyroid problems

Advantages of Psychosexual Therapy for PE

Despite the range of physical conditions that may cause PE, the problem usually occurs due to different psychological factors, from stress and performance anxiety to physical and sexual abuse in childhood. In this case, turning to a sex therapist for premature ejaculation treatment provides plenty of advantages, allowing individuals to:

  • Determine and address the underlying issues causing PE 
  • Treat PE without topical anaesthetics and medication
  • Gain control over the ejaculatory reflex
  • Enhance the overall sexual satisfaction
  • Improve self esteem and develop a sense of confidence
  • Prolong sex by learning techniques to delay ejaculation
  • Change undesirable, rigid sexual repertoires
  • Treat psychological, emotional, and interpersonal issues caused by PE

The Procedure

1. Initial Assessment with Medical Professionals

Before turning to a premature ejaculation therapist, you should first schedule an appointment with your urologist to exclude possible medical conditions that may lead to poor sexual activity. They will ask a number of questions to diagnose the problem, including:

  • When did PE occur for the first time?
  • How often and under what circumstances does it happen?
  • Does PE happen during masturbation?
  • Is there trouble keeping an erection?

In addition to a general physical examination, certain lab tests may also be needed (blood tests, hormone measurements, urine tests, etc.)

2.Appointment with Premature Ejaculation Therapist

When medical issues are excluded, contact London Psychosexual Therapy and book an appointment with Helen Bright-Gerrie.

When I first started working with Helen, I wasn’t sure what to expect. But it became obvious to me very quickly that this woman is top notch. She is very knowledgeable, and very thorough. She is also very dedicated to her clients. I have learned so much, by working with her. I have already seen some improvements, and I look forward to seeing things improve even more. I would highly recommend working with Helen...

"You made it feel easy"

As this was my very first time getting help and speaking to a therapist, I was extremely apprehensive before we started our sessions. I had all sorts of predetermined expectations which I made up in my own head, thinking that the sessions would not be beneficial for me at all. Helen, you made it feel easy. You have really invested your time and it has proven to be a success! Thank you....

"I am very grateful to Helen"

When I started training with Helen I was not sure if it helps me with my medical issue. I knew it will be good for sex but I did not think that her programme will help me to get rid of my urinary incontinence that I suffered for years! It did! I cannot express the feeling of dry pants... I am very grateful.
