Hi,

You seem to be suffering from Premature Ejaculation. It is a condition characterized by early ejaculation causing lack of satisfaction in self or partner.

The best course of action will be to seek a psychiatric consultation for starting treatment in form of both medications and behavior therapy. Medications would include selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors like paroxetine (daily) or dapoxetine on as required basis.

Behavior therapy sessions would consist of 1-2/week for 6-8 weeks. It would incorporate relaxation training, sex education and learning methods like squeeze technique, start-stop method and distraction. Both medications and behavior therapy together gives better results. The outcome will be even more favorable if your sexual partner participates in the behavior therapy sessions.

Hope this information was helpful. Best wishes.
