Our experienced specialists understand the physical and psychological aspects of PE, offering personalized solutions that help men gain better control and enjoy satisfying sexual experiences.
What is Premature Ejaculation?
Premature ejaculation occurs when a man ejaculates sooner than he or his partner would like during sexual activity. While there's no specific time that defines PE, most experts consider it problematic when ejaculation consistently happens within one minute of penetration or before the person wishes. PE can be classified into two types:
Lifelong (Primary) Premature Ejaculation
- Occurs from the first sexual experience
- Happens in nearly all sexual encounters
- Often has biological causes
- May involve abnormal serotonin or hormone levels
- Can have genetic components
Acquired (Secondary) Premature Ejaculation
- Develops after previous satisfactory sexual experiences
- May have sudden or gradual onset
- Often related to psychological or relationship factors
- Can result from medical conditions like prostatitis or thyroid problems
- May be triggered by stress or lifestyle changes
Causes and Risk Factors
Premature ejaculation results from a complex interaction of psychological and biological factors. Understanding the underlying cause is essential for effective treatment:
Psychological Factors
- Performance Anxiety: Worry about sexual performance creating a self-fulfilling prophecy
- Stress and Depression: Mental health issues affecting sexual function
- Relationship Problems: Unresolved conflicts or poor communication with partner

- Past Sexual Trauma: Previous negative sexual experiences affecting current performance

Biological Factors

- Neurotransmitter Issues: Abnormal levels of serotonin affecting ejaculatory reflex
- Inflammation or Infection: Prostatitis or urethritis causing PE
- Erectile Dysfunction: Men with ED may rush to ejaculate before losing erection

Ayurvedic Perspective
In Ayurveda, premature ejaculation is called Shukragatavata and is primarily associated with:
- Vata Imbalance: Increased Vata causing overexcitement and loss of control
- Weak Shukra Dhatu: Reproductive tissue deficiency
- Pitta Imbalance: Excess heat causing hypersensitivity
- Ojas Depletion: Reduced vital essence affecting stamina

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, premature ejaculation is highly treatable and often curable. Most cases of acquired PE respond well to treatment, with success rates of 70-90%. Even lifelong PE can be significantly improved through comprehensive treatment. Our integrated approach combining Ayurvedic herbs, behavioral techniques, and counseling helps men gain lasting ejaculatory control. The key is identifying the underlying cause and following a personalized treatment plan consistently. Many patients achieve permanent improvement within 3-6 months.
Treatment duration varies by individual and PE type. Behavioral techniques may show results within 2-4 weeks with consistent practice. Ayurvedic herbal treatments typically require 6-12 weeks for significant improvement. Modern medications like SSRIs may work within 1-2 weeks but need ongoing use. Most patients notice meaningful improvements within the first month and achieve optimal results by 3 months. Psychological PE may respond faster with counseling, while biological causes may need longer treatment.
Ayurvedic treatments have minimal side effects when properly prescribed. Herbal formulations are natural and well-tolerated. Modern medications like SSRIs may cause nausea, drowsiness, or decreased libido in some men. Topical anesthetics can cause temporary numbness or mild irritation. Behavioral techniques have no side effects. We carefully monitor each patient and adjust treatments to minimize any adverse effects while maximizing benefits. Most side effects, if any, are mild and resolve quickly.
For mild to moderate PE, lifestyle modifications combined with behavioral techniques can be very effective. Regular exercise, stress management, pelvic floor exercises, and practicing control techniques often produce significant improvements without medications. However, severe or lifelong PE usually requires additional interventions like herbal treatments or medications. Our doctors assess each case individually to determine if lifestyle changes alone are sufficient or if additional treatments are needed for optimal results.
Partner involvement is highly beneficial for PE treatment. Many behavioral techniques require partner participation for practice and success. Partners can provide emotional support, reduce performance anxiety, and help implement new techniques. Couples counseling addresses communication issues and unrealistic expectations. However, individual treatment is also effective if partner involvement isn't possible. We tailor our approach based on your situation and preferences while encouraging partner participation when appropriate.
