Frequently Asked Questions

1. What should I expect during a sexual health consultation?

During a sexual health consultation at Prema Health, you can expect a confidential and respectful environment where you can discuss your concerns openly. The doctor will ask about your medical history, lifestyle, and specific symptoms. They may conduct a physical examination and recommend tests such as blood work or urine samples to diagnose any underlying conditions. Based on the findings, the doctor will develop a personalised treatment plan and discuss it with you, ensuring you understand the next steps. The goal is to provide a comprehensive assessment and tailor the treatment to your needs.

2. How is erectile dysfunction (ED) treated?

Erectile dysfunction (ED) can be treated through various methods depending on the underlying cause. Common treatments include lifestyle changes, such as exercise and diet improvements, and medications like PDE5 inhibitors (e.g., Viagra, Cialis). For more severe cases, vacuum erection devices, penile injections, or surgical options like penile implants may be recommended. Psychological factors contributing to ED can be addressed with counselling or therapy. At Prema Health, our approach is to find the most effective and least invasive treatment tailored to your specific situation.

3. What are the symptoms of low testosterone, and how is it treated?

Symptoms of low testosterone (low T) can include fatigue, reduced libido, erectile dysfunction, mood changes, and loss of muscle mass. If you suspect you have low testosterone, a blood test can confirm your levels. Treatment options for low testosterone levels include testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), which can be administered via injections, gels, patches, or pellets. The appropriate form of therapy will be determined based on your preference and medical condition. TRT can help restore energy levels, improve mood, enhance sexual function, and increase muscle mass.

4. How are sexually transmitted infections (STIs) diagnosed and treated?

STIs are diagnosed through various tests, including blood tests, urine samples, and swabs from affected areas. Common STIs include chlamydia, gonorrhoea, syphilis, herpes, and HIV. If a STD is diagnosed, treatment will depend on the specific infection. Bacterial STIs like chlamydia and gonorrhoea are typically treated with antibiotics. Viral infections such as herpes or HIV require antiviral medications to manage symptoms and reduce transmission risk. Regular testing and prompt treatment are crucial to prevent complications and transmission to partners.

5. What can be done about premature ejaculation (PE)?

Premature ejaculation (PE) can be managed with a combination of behavioural techniques, medications, and counselling. Behavioural techniques, such as the start-stop method or squeeze technique, can help delay ejaculation. Medications like selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) or topical anaesthetics can reduce sensitivity and prolong ejaculation time. Counselling or therapy can address any underlying psychological factors contributing to PE. At Prema Health, we work with you to identify the most effective strategies and treatments to manage PE, enhancing your sexual confidence and satisfaction.

Conditions Treated

When seeking a sexual health review, men commonly experience conditions such as erectile dysfunction (ED), which is the inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for sexual intercourse. This condition can stem from various physical or psychological factors, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, stress, and anxiety. Another frequent issue is low libido or reduced sexual desire, often linked to hormonal imbalances, particularly low testosterone levels. This can lead to a lack of interest in sexual activity, affecting both personal relationships and self-esteem.

Premature ejaculation (PE) is another prevalent concern, where ejaculation occurs sooner than desired, causing distress and frustration. Men may also seek help for pain during intercourse, which can be due to infections, inflammation, or other medical conditions. Additionally, sexually transmitted infections (STIs) like chlamydia, gonorrhoea, syphilis, and herpes are significant concerns that require timely diagnosis and treatment to prevent complications and transmission to partners.

Psychological issues such as performance anxiety, relationship problems, and body image concerns can also emerge during a sexual health review. These factors can significantly impact sexual function and overall well-being. At Prema Health, our comprehensive approach addresses both the physical and psychological aspects of sexual health, ensuring holistic care and treatment tailored to everyone’s needs. By identifying and treating these conditions, we help men improve their sexual health, enhance their relationships, and boost their overall quality of life.
