Premature ejaculation
Has ejaculation happened sooner than you'd like since your earliest sexual experiences? Discuss it privately, without judgement. A recent change from previous normal control needs a different assessment.
- No appointment or video call
- NZ clinician reviewed
- Pay only if approved
What to expect
Talk to Quinn, our AI assistant. A NZ clinician reviews your history and decides your care.
- A clinician may discuss practical techniques, creams or sprays, and selected medicines
- Priligy was removed from NZ sale, so any medicine's availability and private cost must be checked
- A new pattern, pain, urinary symptoms, erection changes or major distress may need a broader assessment
Is this service right for me?
Start an online assessment if…
- You can discuss the pattern, erection function, health and medicines privately

Use another service first if…
- A sudden new change with pelvic pain, urinary symptoms, erection changes or symptoms affecting the nerves
- Fainting, unstable heart symptoms, medicines that may interact or a major untreated mental-health concern
When to get care sooner
Some symptoms need urgent or in-person care.

About premature ejaculation
Premature ejaculation means regularly ejaculating sooner than you or a partner would like, with little control over when it happens. A lifelong pattern can have different causes and treatment options from a recent change.
- A persistent, repeated pattern rather than an occasional experience
- The timing and lack of control cause distress or difficulty for you or a partner

Frequently asked questions
Is premature ejaculation common?
It's thought to affect roughly one in three men at some point, and it can usually be helped with the right approach.
Are there non-medicine options that can help?
Yes. Many men benefit from behavioural techniques, such as the stop-start or squeeze method, and pelvic floor exercises. Sometimes psychological or relationship support helps too.
