Can my girlfriend get pregnant after taking emergency contraception?

Premature­ ejaculation happens when a man orgasms faste­r than desired during intercourse­. It means ejaculating within one minute­ after starting sex. Many factors can lead to this. Fe­eling anxious or stressed contribute­s. Medical conditions too. However, the­re are ways to manage it. Re­laxation techniques and condoms reducing se­nsitivity help. Seeking the­rapy is another option. 

It is crucial to realize that gaining an excessive amount of pornography and cyberspace ultimately results in being desensitized, and it has a negative impact on sexual encounters with real living partners and relationships.

The "flat line" effect, that you brought up, is also a commonly displayed problem where former porn addicts may experience a drop in their sex drive and arousal. But for now, the findings are not substantial, more studies are required to distinguish porn effect on sexual function from its own.

With regard to facilitation, many people have found it immensely helpful to consult a professional mental health care provider, such as a therapist or a counselor, and avail their expert help in dealing with this problem and addressing any underlying psychological factors. A sex therapist may possess skills in counseling individuals with sexual dysfunction or enhancing sexual functions.

Your well-being is of top concern and seeking the help of a mental and sexual health specialist can provide you with the needed information when making a decision about your next step. In this connection, I suggest you talk to a psychologist or sex therapist, whose main professional concern is the issues you are experiencing, for more help and support.

For a person already diagnosed with HIV, it’s crucial to adhere to prescribed antiretroviral therapy (ART) to manage the condition. Regular medical check-ups are also important. Safe practices, including using barrier methods during sexual contact, can prevent further transmission. Please consult an infectious disease specialist for personalized advice.

Getting intimate­ with someone who had chicken pox 25 days prior is typically safe­. The varicella-zoster virus be­hind the rash, fever, and itching, isn't spre­ad through sex. Once symptoms disappear, the­ infected person isn't contagious anymore­. However, ensure­ your partner feels he­althy, with the rash fully healed be­fore getting close physically.

You may be suffering from premature ejaculation. On the other hand, this could be realized with different factors such as, for example, stress, anxiety, and hormonal imbalance in your body. One of the methods I would suggest is to look for behavioral interventions like the start-stop method or the squeeze technique during sex. It is also possible to discuss with a doctor about the medications or therapy options which may be of help with your situation.
