AYURVEDIC TREATMENTS TO CONTROL PREMATURE EJACULATION:

The Ayurveda says that aggravation in Vata and Pitta dosha at the beginning of sexual intercourse causes premature ejaculation. The aggravation is caused by anxiety or nervousness before sexual intercourse. Vata which is known for the qualities of quickness and sensitivity leads to quick ejaculation while Pitta leads to the thinness of semen and thus results in early ejaculation. Moreover, the aggravation in these doshas results in hyperactivity of muscles in male organs which increases sensitivity and vibration and leads to premature ejaculation. The Ayurvedic treatment for premature ejaculation focuses on balancing the Vata and Pitta dosha. Any form of stress and anxiety during sexual intercourse can be reduced with the help of some natural herbs. However, a well-balanced diet yoga, meditation, and counseling can play an important role in controlling the problem of premature ejaculation in men.
