My husband suffers from premature ejackulations. We are trying for a baby.

Question:
My name is Helen. Me and John have been married for 1 year. Now we are trying for a baby, but John suffers from premature ejackulations. Can this cause some problems? How do I know if my hymen is still intact? Do I need some surgery or procedure?

Doctor’s Answer:
Hi, Helen. Most treatments for premature ejaculation work by reducing sensitivity. As you might have known the sensitivity of any part of our body is controlled by certain nerves, and men’s genital area is not an exception. All these nerves are connected to other nerves in our brain and spinal cord. The orgasm and ejaculation is achieved after the certain stimulation.

The sensitivity can be reduced at the penis level – by using certain desensitizing creams, gels or condoms. Or it can be reduced at the brain level with the help of certain anti-depressant drugs of SSRI group – they have side effects of delaying the ejaculation. Or you can consider some great natural premature ejaculation remedies such as Delay or DuraMale – they have been proven to work very well.

Regarding the fact that you are trying for a baby. If your husband John can ejaculate inside your vagina – the premature ejaculation is not the problem. Don’t worry about your hymen getting in the way as long as you have already had intercourses with John.

Only if you cannot conceive after a year of actively trying you should pay a visit to your fertility specialist for consultation and evaluation.

Best of luck.
