PREMATURE EJACULATION DUE TO HYPERSENSITIVITY - #10728
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to seek a consultation regarding a personal health concern I have been experiencing. Over time, I have noticed symptoms of premature ejaculation, which I believe may be linked to increased sensitivity in the glans. I suspect this hypersensitivity might have developed due to a history of excessive masturbation. The condition has started to affect my confidence and quality of life, and I would like to understand the underlying causes in more detail. I am looking forward to receiving your expert guidance on possible diagnostic evaluations, treatment options, or behavioral strategies that can help manage and ideally resolve this issue.

Thank you for reaching out and sharing your concerns openly. Premature ejaculation (PE), particularly when associated with glans hypersensitivity, is a common issue faced by many men and can have both physical and psychological contributors.
Based on your description, here are a few important considerations:
1. Possible Causes:
Glans Hypersensitivity: Overstimulation, especially from frequent or aggressive masturbation, can lead to increased sensitivity. This might result in a lower threshold for ejaculation.
Neurochemical Imbalance: Changes in serotonin or dopamine levels in the brain can contribute to PE.
Performance Anxiety or Stress: Mental factors often play a significant role and may worsen the problem.
Lack of Regular Sexual Activity: Infrequent intercourse can also lead to lower ejaculatory control.
2. Diagnostic Approach:
Detailed Sexual History: A clinical discussion focusing on the onset, frequency, duration of intercourse, masturbation habits, and emotional factors.
Neurological Sensitivity Test: Some urologists or andrologists may evaluate penile sensitivity if hypersensitivity is suspected.
Hormonal Evaluation: Occasionally, testosterone or prolactin levels are checked.
Rule Out Other Conditions: Such as prostatitis or pelvic floor dysfunction, if symptoms suggest.
3. Management and Treatment Options:
A. Behavioral Strategies:
Start-Stop Technique or Squeeze Technique during masturbation or intercourse.
Pelvic Floor Exercises (Kegels) to improve ejaculatory control.
Edging (delayed gratification practice) to train stamina.
B. Medical Treatment (under supervision):
Topical Desensitizing Creams: Lidocaine-prilocaine cream can reduce sensitivity but must be used carefully to avoid partner numbness.
Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs): Low doses like paroxetine, sertraline, or dapoxetine (short-acting) are sometimes prescribed to delay ejaculation.
Tramadol (occasionally used): Only under strict medical guidance due to addiction potential.
C. Lifestyle Modifications:
Reduce or regulate frequency of masturbation.
Avoid overstimulation with pornography.
Manage stress, anxiety, and improve sleep quality.
Next Steps:
I recommend scheduling an appointment with a urologist or sexologist for an in-depth evaluation. They may offer personalized therapy, prescribe medications if needed, or refer you to a psychosexual therapist if mental factors are prominent.
You’re taking the right step by seeking help—this condition is highly manageable with the right approach.
