Frequently asked questions
What premature ejaculation medications can I get through Amazon Clinic?
Your clinician may prescribe a selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitor (SSRI) like paroxetine (Paxil) or sertraline (Zoloft) to help prevent early climax. Though these medications are antidepressants, clinical studies show that they can help prevent premature ejaculation. Your clinician may also prescribe a topical anesthetic like lidocaine-prilocaine (Lidopril) to make the penis less sensitive.
Treatment with PDE5 inhibitors like sildenafil (Viagra) or tadalafil (Cialis) may be available to certain customers when medically appropriate.

What's the difference between erectile dysfunction (ED) and premature ejaculation?
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is characterized by issues with getting or maintaining an erection, while premature ejaculation is characterized by ejaculating too quickly during most or all sexual penetration. What's too quickly? It's often defined as less than a minute into a sexual experience, but it can be longer, depending on how much control you feel when you climax.
Premature ejaculation is also characterized by negative personal consequences. In some cultures, early ejaculation can be a sign of masculinity, so it's not considered a problem. But if you feel distressed, worried, or annoyed by the speed of your climax, or if your relationship is suffering because of it, a clinician might be able to help.

What should I do if I have ED and premature ejaculation?
Erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation can occur at the same time. If you're experiencing both conditions, clinicians generally recommend that you seek treatment for ED first before adding premature ejaculation treatments. You can start an ED visit through Amazon Clinic's erectile dysfunction treatment page.
How common is premature ejaculation?
Experts estimate that premature ejaculation affects up to 70% of men in the U.S. at some point in their lives.
