Premature ejaculation caused by excessive glans sensitivity can be alleviated through behavioral therapy and surgical intervention. Behavioral therapy involves retracting the foreskin to fully expose the glans penis and sleeping naked at night; during sleep, the body undergoes natural physiological responses, thereby desensitizing the glans through subconscious stimulation. Additionally, wearing loose-fitting underwear—or even going without underwear—during daily activities helps gradually reduce glans sensitivity. If these conservative measures prove ineffective, surgical treatment—such as selective dorsal nerve resection of the penis—may be considered.
