Erectile dysfunction (ED) and premature ejaculation (PE) in men can be alleviated through surgical intervention, behavioral therapy, and pharmacotherapy. ED typically requires surgical or physical treatment; surgical options include low-energy shockwave therapy. If PE is caused by abnormal blood glucose or lipid levels, management should focus on normalizing these parameters. PE can be treated with behavioral therapy or pharmacotherapy. Behavioral techniques commonly include the “stop-start” method, the “squeeze” technique, and other forms of manual stimulation. Pharmacological treatments include oral selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) or topical anesthetic agents.
