Premature Ejaculation: Causes & Effective Treatments
Why traditional treatments often fail—and our approach that works when others don't.
Premature ejaculation affects approximately 1 in 3 men and is one of the most common sexual health concerns. Beyond the physical frustration, PE can damage relationships, create anxiety, and lead to avoidance of intimacy altogether. The good news? Effective treatment exists—even when traditional methods have failed.[1]
Understanding Premature Ejaculation
PE is clinically defined as ejaculation that occurs within about one minute of penetration, happens before the person wishes, and causes personal distress or relationship difficulties.[2]
However, many men who don't meet this clinical definition still struggle with ejaculatory control. If you feel you're ejaculating too quickly and it's affecting your relationships or satisfaction, treatment may help.
Causes of PE
Premature ejaculation can have multiple contributing factors:[3]
Psychological Factors
- Performance anxiety: Worry about sexual performance creates a self-fulfilling cycle
- Relationship stress: Tension or unresolved conflict with a partner
- Early sexual experiences: Rushed early encounters can establish patterns
- Depression or anxiety: General mental health affects sexual function
Physical Factors
- Erectile dysfunction: Fear of losing an erection can cause rushing
- Hormonal imbalances: Abnormal hormone levels can affect control
- Serotonin levels: Low serotonin is linked to quicker ejaculation
- Prostate issues: Inflammation can affect ejaculatory control
Why Traditional Treatments Often Disappoint
Numbing Creams/Sprays
Reduces sensation for both partners, unpredictable effects, interrupts spontaneity
SSRI Medications
Daily pills with side effects including nausea, drowsiness, and reduced libido
Start-Stop Technique
Requires constant interruption, breaks intimacy flow, limited long-term success
Behavioral Therapy
Time-intensive, requires partner participation, variable results
Our Approach: Low-Dose ICP for PE
We use a precisely calibrated, low-dose injection therapy specifically formulated for premature ejaculation. Unlike the stronger formulations used for ED, our PE protocol uses a gentler formula that provides consistent, predictable results.
How It Works for PE
- Erection stays firm after ejaculation
The medication maintains your erection for 30-60 minutes regardless of when ejaculation occurs.
- Performance anxiety disappears
When you know your erection won't fade, the pressure to "hold back" vanishes.
- Intimacy continues naturally
Even if you ejaculate early, you can continue without interruption or embarrassment.
- Long-term improvement possible
Repeated successful experiences help retrain your body for lasting ejaculatory control.

PE isn't just a physical problem—it's a relationship problem. When intimacy ends abruptly, both partners are left feeling disconnected. Over time, these moments can create distance, resentment, and avoidance of intimacy altogether.
By restoring your ability to have satisfying intimate experiences, treatment can rebuild connection and confidence in your relationship.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is considered premature ejaculation?
Premature ejaculation is defined as ejaculation that occurs within 1-2 minutes of penetration, before the person wishes it, and causes distress. It affects about 1 in 3 men at some point in their lives.
Can PE be permanently cured?
Many men experience lasting improvement. With our ICP approach, repeated successful experiences help retrain the body and develop better ejaculatory control that can persist even without treatment.
How is ICP different from numbing creams?
Numbing creams reduce sensation for both partners and don't address the underlying issue. Our low-dose ICP maintains your erection regardless of ejaculation, eliminating performance anxiety and allowing intimacy to continue naturally.
Why don't pills work for PE?
SSRIs (like Paxil) can delay ejaculation but have side effects including reduced libido and can actually cause ED. They require daily use and don't address the psychological component of PE.
Is PE connected to ED?
Yes, PE and ED often occur together. The anxiety from losing an erection can cause men to 'rush' to ejaculation. Treating the erection confidence with ICP often improves ejaculatory control as well.
