Reasons for delayed ejaculation in men

Delayed Ejaculation Advice For Men

prozacIan Kerner is a sex therapist who’s written a great deal about how men can pleasure women in bed. And that’s great, because many men still don’t know how to bring a woman to orgasm*.

In a conversation with sex therapist colleague Michael Perelman, Kerner outlined his thoughts about the causes of delayed ejaculation.

And just so you have a very informal view of this issue, before we get serious, here is Laci Green, sex-educator and all round good chappess, on the subject of late, slow and inhibited orgasm.

Causes of Delayed Ejaculation

porgimagesFirst up, then, is the use of SSRI antidepressants such as Prozac, Zoloft and Paxil.

And Kerner’s absolutely right – these drugs can certainly stop a man coming any time soon. So yes, they are a cause of delayed ejaculation. (But so are many other medicines. Are you taking anything prescribed by your doctor?)

Sometimes anti-depressants greatly increase the time to ejaculation, sometimes they stop it altogether.

Kerner says these drugs are one of the main reasons for the recent increase in men experiencing delayed ejaculation.

Maybe. To be sure, we’d need to compare the increase in prescriptions for these SSRI antidepressants and the increase in delayed ejaculation over the same period of time. I don’t think anybody’s done that.

Like I said, that doesn’t mean the two things are linked; it could just be that more men are finding the courage to talk about delayed ejaculation.

Even so, we do know that SSRI antidepressants can interfere with sexual function, and if you’re on these drugs, or for that matter any prescription drugs, go and see your doctor. You may find there’s an alternative medicine which will allow you to ejaculate normally.
