It may be temporary."},"content":{"rendered":"<h2>Psychological or Physiological?<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/singapore\/premature-ejaculation\">Premature Ejaculation<\/a>\u00a0is the unintentional, uncontrolled ejaculation that is as a result of the penis being only stimulated minimally.\u00a0It can also be referred to as, premature climax, rapid climax, early ejaculation, premature climax or rapid ejaculation. It is basically where a man reaches climax faster than he would have liked. <strong>Clinically, it is given a timeline of less than a minute<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s considered an embarrassment in today&#8217;s society and thought to be of the worst things that could happen to a man. There&#8217;s a huge part of guilt and shame surrounding it. But someone affected by Premature Ejaculation should not be ashamed and be open about it. <a title=\"Common Causes of Premature Ejaculation\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/common-causes-of-premature-ejaculation\">It can be psychological or physiological<\/a>, but in either case, it can be dealt with.<\/p>\n<p>Plenty of men will be embarrassed about it thus not talk about it. But it is in fact so common, that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/men-in-london-suffering-the-most-from-erectile-dysfunction-in-the-uk\">approximately 1 in 3 men suffers from Premature Ejaculation at some point in their lives<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>What brings it about?<\/h2>\n<p>The exact cause is not known. However, it is thought to be as a result of various psychological and biological factors.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Some of the Biological factors include<\/span>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>High sensitivity of the penis<\/li>\n<li>Hormones and serotonin receptors reaching abnormal levels<\/li>\n<li>An infected\/inflamed urethra<\/li>\n<li>The neurotransmitter levels being abnormal<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Psychological factors include<\/span>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Depression<\/li>\n<li>Stress about rapid climax<\/li>\n<li>Prior sexual abuse<\/li>\n<li>Poor body image<\/li>\n<li>Poor past sexual experiences<\/li>\n<li>Relationship issues<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Other causes could be side effects of a drug, or consequences of prostatitis.<\/p>\n<h2>What are some of the tell-tale signs?<\/h2>\n<p>You will know there is a slight dysfunction when you cannot control your ejaculation barely a minute after penetration begins, or if you are unable to delay your climax. It happens with only slight stimulation and can happen even while masturbating.<\/p>\n<h2>Is there treatment?<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/singapore\/premature-ejaculation-treatment\">Premature Ejaculation<\/a> is not necessarily critical and doesn&#8217;t always require a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/singapore\/premature-ejaculation-treatment\">medical treatment<\/a>, per se. There are however some techniques you can use at home to build your stamina in the sheets.<\/p>\n<h3>Pelvic floor exercises<\/h3>\n<p>Like any other muscle, pelvic floor muscles need to be worked out if they are to be fit. Kegel exercises are not only a remedy for women; they work well to strengthen the muscles and lengthen the period a man can control his climax.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2370\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/pelvic.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2370\" class=\"wp-image-2370\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/pelvic.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/pelvic.png 1500w, https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/pelvic-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/pelvic-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/pelvic-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/pelvic-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/pelvic-1200x1200.png 1200w, https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/pelvic-400x400.png 400w, https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/pelvic-800x800.png 800w, https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/pelvic-200x200.png 200w, https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/pelvic-57x57.png 57w, https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/pelvic-72x72.png 72w, https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/pelvic-114x114.png 114w, https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/pelvic-144x144.png 144w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2370\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pelvic Floor muscles are an important part of sexual health<\/p><\/div>\n<h3>Use of condoms<\/h3>\n<p>These reduce the sensation to the penis and thus help to delay ejaculation. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/taking-the-awkward-out-of-condoms\">You will also be protecting yourself from STDs<\/a> when you opt to go the rubber way.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2371\" style=\"width: 560px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/condoms-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2371\" class=\"wp-image-2371\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/condoms-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"407\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/condoms-1.jpg 2586w, https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/condoms-1-300x222.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/condoms-1-768x568.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/condoms-1-1024x758.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/condoms-1-150x111.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/condoms-1-1200x888.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/condoms-1-400x296.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/condoms-1-800x592.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.shimclinic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/condoms-1-200x148.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2371\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Condoms can help with Premature Ejaculation.<\/p><\/div>\n<h3><strong>Behavioural techniques<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Masturbating a few hours before intercourse may help to delay the climax.
