Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am newly married, and we both are first timers. We tried penetration a lot of times, but the moment I come close to her, I lose the erection. Also, I am ejaculating within 20 seconds. I do not have any health issue and morning erection is positive.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

You seem to be reporting of premature ejaculation. It is very common among this age group during the initial part of sex life. I will explain, try to engage more in foreplay during sex like for at least 20 minutes. During intercourse try to go very slow, when you feel that you are about to come, stop and slow down for a minute and then continue. By this way, you can prevent rapid release.

You may need medicine temporarily. Use it when required like one hour before sex and maximum once per day. Kindly avoid heavy food before taking a tablet. There are no major side effects except a mild headache rarely. And, you should not be having any cardiac problems.

Do a thyroid function test (TSH) to rule out thyroid disorders. I suggest tablet Tadalafil when needed, and the problem will gradually improve.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Thank you. Here, I attached my reports including thyroid. My lead and ferric content increased because of one ayurvedic medicine, so I stopped it.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

The reports seem to be fine. You need to control your cholesterol levels a bit, maybe regular work out will help. It can impair erection especially if cholesterol is high.

I would recommend using the tablet I suggested for a while before sex because it will help in maintaining the erection by improving blood supply. You can also use Ashwagandha or Ginkgo biloba supplements regularly to improve sexual functions.

Also, perform regular yoga, sleep well and keep your weight under check.
