Treatment
The ultimate goal of the uncontrollable ejaculation / PE treatment is to help both patients and their partners to regain sexual satisfaction. We focus on a curative approach rather than just treating patients’ symptoms. This way, patients do not have to rely on life-long medications when dealing with such problem. Effective treatments allow patients to gain a better control over the time of ejaculation. Patients will overcome both sensitivity issues and performance anxiety gradually. After treatments, most patients are able to control ejaculation on their own and no further treatment is needed.
There are numerous ways to treat PE, some common and effective methods include Mixture Therapy, Oral Medication and Counseling (Sex Therapy)
1) Mixture Therapy
Mixture Therapy was first introduced in early 1980s and has been widely used by doctors around the USA, Europe, Latin America, Australia for decades. In Hong Kong, the therapy has been practiced by doctors since 2004. The efficacy and tolerability of Mixture Therapy is clinically proven by hospitals and universities worldwide.
Unlike the over-the-counter-drugs, Mixture Therapy is required to be prescribed by a registered doctor. To determine the most suitable dosage, the doctor will conduct relevant tests to evaluate patients’ blood flows and the nerve systems.
Mixture therapy traditionally used for erectile dysfunction, along with desensitizing techniques, can also be effective in the treatment of uncontrollable / premature ejaculation. This allows the man to continue the intercourse process without losing his erection even after ejaculation, lengthening the intercourse process. By continuing to have intercourse the patient is actually desensitizing the head of his penis, building patients’ confidence and reducing psychological burden, while meeting the sexual needs of himself and his partner. Mixture Therapy has dramatically improved the sexual performance of men with PE and their relationship with partner.

2) Oral Medication
Our Center provides oral medication for the treatment of uncontrollable / premature ejaculation in men between 18 to 64 years old[1]. Oral medication delays ejaculation by inhibiting the serotonin transporter and increasing serotonin’s action at the post synaptic cleft[2].

Other Methods include:
Method | Concept |
| Stop and Start Method / Squeeze Method | Pausing in the middle of sexual stimulation, allows men to identify the point of climax and control ejaculation. Thus improve the interaction between partners |
| Biofeedback Therapy | Contracting the pelvic floor muscles for variable time intervals (e.g. 10 seconds) during urination, enables men to become aware of the muscles that control ejaculation with the use of “Kegel exercises” |
| Sex Positions | Different sex positions can affect men’s ability to control their ejaculation “man-on-top” position” : more difficult for men to control the timing of ejaculation since they have to hold themselves up “woman-on-top” position” : more relaxing for men and enables them to control ejaculation |
