Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi Doctor. I am a 19 year old male and I have really bad premature ejaculation. Its embarrassing because when I'm with my girlfriend I finish within seconds of penetration and sometimes I even get too excited and finish before my pants are off. Is that normal for my age? Is this something that improves with age or should I seek medical help? It's not that I'm nervous around girls, I play lacrosse for my school and am in good shape. I can't help but feel this shouldn't be happening to me. Thank you for your advice.
