Priligy - A Solution for Premature Ejaculation
Are you one of the many men who struggle with premature ejaculation (PE)? You're not alone. It's a common issue that can leave both you and your partner feeling unsatisfied. But, the good news is that there are treatments available, such as Priligy. The question is, does Priligy work?
Let's find out...
How does it work?
Priligy is an oral medication specifically designed to treat PE. It works by affecting your serotonin levels, a neurotransmitter that plays a role in mood, emotion, sleep, and ejaculation. Priligy contains dapoxetine hydrochloride, which is a type of medicine called a short-acting selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). This means that it prevents the reuptake of some serotonin by nerve cells, allowing more serotonin to be available to further pass signals. By doing so, it can help to prolong the time it takes to reach orgasm.
Advantages of Priligy
One of the advantages of Priligy is its speed. It's fast-acting, meaning that it can be taken 1-3 hours before sex to help delay ejaculation and extend the time taken to ejaculate by 2 to 3 times. Priligy is the only approved oral medication for PE, making it a reliable option for men who are looking for a solution to their premature ejaculation.
However, medication isn't the only solution for treating PE. There are also several behavioural treatments you can try. For example, if the root cause of your premature ejaculation is psychological, talking therapy may be a useful approach to overcome psychological barriers. If physical factors such as inflammation of the prostate gland are contributing to your rapid ejaculation, it's important to address these directly.
Building up your sexual stamina naturally
There are also techniques you can use to build up your sexual stamina. These include masturbating an hour or two before sex, using the stop-start technique of pausing stimulation when you're getting close to orgasm, and doing pelvic floor exercises to gain greater control of your surrounding muscles.
If you've tried the above approaches and are still experiencing premature ejaculation, medication treatments such as Priligy or lidocaine may be effective. Lidocaine is a local anaesthetic that can help to reduce sensitivity when applied to the penis. STUD100 is a spray containing lidocaine and is a convenient option for prolonging intercourse.
It's important to note that medication treatments will not "cure" premature ejaculation long-term. However, they can be effective as an immediate solution to delaying ejaculation and enhancing your sexual experience.
The conclusion
So, does Priligy work? The answer is yes, for many men, it does. However, it's important to discuss with your healthcare provider whether it's the right option for you and to carefully follow treatment guidelines, especially if you're taking other medications. With the right treatment approach, premature ejaculation doesn't have to be a source of distress or dissatisfaction for you or your partner.
