Does Premature Ejaculation Cause Infertility? The Truth

Does Premature Ejaculation Cause Infertility

No, premature ejaculation itself does not cause infertility. Infertility in males is due to low sperm count or poor sperm quality. Many males experiencing premature ejaculation have normal semen analysis parameters. Therefore it is important for one to know about sexual health to prevent stress over fertility myths as misconception- as stress does contribute to infertility. At Njinsky IVF & Fertility Clinic our fertility experts are available to bust these myths and provide a medically accurate cause if you are suffering from infertility.

Sexual Health and Infertility

Premature ejaculation is one of the commonest sexual health concerns in males and it is important to address it with great care. As we already know, premature ejaculation does not cause infertility. However, if ejaculation is done outside the vaginal, pregnancy cannot be achieved as no sperm is reached to fertilise the egg. On the other hand stress and performance anxiety with premature ejaculation may reduce the frequency of intercourse leading to missing the fertile window. If intercourse is done outside the fertile window of the female, the chances of conception are significantly reduced.

Factors Affecting Conception

Premature ejaculation does not directly contribute to infertility. If you are a couple experiencing infertility, it is important to get evaluated by a sexual health practitioner. At NJINSKY, the leading IVF centre in Pakistan, our fertility experts listen to all your concerns regarding sexual health and infertility and evaluate the exact cause of infertility. Whether it is premature ejaculation causing infertility or some other cause, doctors at Njinsky IVF & Fertility Clinic aim to resolve all your concerns and treat infertility.

Here are some common causes of infertility fertility experts usually look for:

  • Low sperm count
  • Disrupted morphology of sperm
  • Poor motility of sperm
  • Varicocele
  • Ovulatory disorders
  • Endometrial abnormalities
  • Hormonal imbalances
  • Infections like STIs
  • Age factor

 

Diagnosis of Fertility Issues

People may experience different issues of infertility and it is very important that these issues are addressed correctly with appropriate treatment. At Njinsky IVF & Fertility Clinic different infertility treatments are available. An initial diagnosis is made by a gynecologist or an andrologist, and after a series of investigations, the diagnosis is confirmed and treatment begins.

Female infertility treatment is required in case of ovulatory disorders, uterine abnormalities and blocked fallopian tubes. In some cases, assisted reproductive techniques such as IVF, IUI, and ICSI are required.

Infertility treatment for males may require hormonal therapy, lifestyle modification, sperm retrieval techniques, or surgery in cases of varicocele. For patients experiencing premature ejaculation, the underlying cause could be psychological, biological or a combination of both.

Treatments for premature ejaculation are as follows:

  • Behavioral techniques
  • Start -stop technique
  • Squeeze technique
  • Pelvic floor exercise
  • Psychological Counseling- stress, anxiety and performance pressure can cause premature ejaculation.
  • Medications
  • Topical anesthetic creams or sprays
  • Reduce penile sensitivity and delay ejaculation.
  • Oral medications (SSRIs)–Certain antidepressants can delay ejaculation as a side effect and are commonly prescribed in controlled doses.
  • Certain medications are also available to treat premature ejaculation.

 

At Njinsky IVF & Fertility Clinic we understand every concern of males and females regarding infertility and sexual health. With thorough evaluation and tests the underlying cause can easily be identified and the most effective treatment is advised.
