Premature ejaculation is likely the most common sexual dysfunction in men — affecting approximately 30 percent of all males worldwide —but the medical community still doesn’t know for sure what causes it.
When seeking out treatment options, some want an aggressive, permanent surgical fix for their premature ejaculation.
With so many men experiencing premature ejaculation (PE), there is a great deal of interest from the medical community to find long-term solutions or a cure.
Fortunately, there is a safe, effective, and proven treatment for premature ejaculation that doesn't involve surgery. Check out Promescent Desensitizing Spray.
But at this time, premature ejaculation surgery is still experimental and risky; any “quick fix” might be too good to be true, and it could have permanent negative health effects. (To be honest, some of them even sound horrifying enough to give us nightmares.)
In 2013, David Prologo published findings in the Journal of Vascular Interventional Radiology after surgically treating a small group of 24 patients with premature ejaculation, for whom standard treatments weren’t effective.
His treatment involved a needle-guided “cryoablation” (the use of extreme cold to destroy tissue) of the dorsal penile nerve in each patient.
When he presented those initial findings in 2011 at the Radiological Society of North America, WebMD reported on several unknowns, including the long-term consequences of the procedure and whether any men would actually opt for the treatment (ya think?).
In 2016, a new study published in Translational Andrology and Urology examined new and existing surgical treatments for PE.
Author Du Geon Moon found surgical trials in Korea and China were experimenting with two surgical methods of treatment: selective dorsal neurectomy and glans penis augmentation with hyaluronic-acid gel.
Both treatments were developed to decrease penile sensitivity before the International Society for Sexual Medicine set guidelines for them.
ISSM guidelines have since been established and do not recommend surgical treatment because of insufficient reliable data and the risk of permanent loss of sexual function.
Though surgical treatment in Asian countries is on the upswing, these surgeries are not considered safe for broad use and may still show long-term impairments for patients.
“Surgical treatments to decrease the sensation of the glans have demonstrated efficacy for treating PE but are not recommended due to possible sensory loss and rare erectile dysfunction,” according to the 2016 study.
While men who experience PE wait for safe, affordable surgical or other permanent cures, there are more options at hand.
There are ways to last longer in bed, including:
Fresh positions: Try a few new positions designed to take some of the friction and pressure off of your penis, and you may find you last longer.
