Premature ejaculation is an embarrassing condition and many men leave the problem undiagnosed and untreated because they are too terrified to speak to their GP about it. The sad truth is that even those who try to seek medical treatment for eiaculazione precoce ejaculation are often dismissed by their doctor. Here are a few tips on how best to prepare yourself for a consultation with your doctor and get the most out of their time.
Write down your observations – make a list of symptoms you have noticed in the weeks and months preceding your doctor’s appointment. This will help you to provide your doctor with detailed information about the problem you have been experiencing. It will also make sure you do not forget to mention something important to your doctor. In terms of premature ejaculation this may involve writing down how long your erection lasts for on average, how this makes you feel and how not being able to control ejaculation affects your personal relationship.
Do not be afraid to ask questions – your doctor may suggest a variety of different therapies including techniques such as the “start-stop” or the “squeeze” methods, they may prescribe you some medications such as Priligy Dapoxetine or they may wish to refer you to a sexual therapist for counselling. If you are unclear as to your treatment options and would like a more detailed explanation, then ask for one. Try not to leave the consultation room confused and unsatisfied.
Do some research – the internet cannot completely replace a fact-to-face consultation, but it does offer a wealth of information. You can find information on the number of people who suffer from the same condition, the most common treatment options and the general outcome of treatment. Doing some research will help you to better understand premature ejaculation, but should not be used to self-diagnose.
Ask for a man – if you have a female GP, but would be much happier talking to a man then make an appointment with a male doctor. There is no need to feel silly about making this kind of choice – what is important is that you are comfortable discussing your problem openly.
