SS cream was found to be an effective treatment for men suffering from Premature Ejaculationby pehomepage editorial team
As
Premature Ejaculation
(also called Rapid Ejaculation) is a very common sexual dysfunction, researchers around the world are trying to identify potential treatments for it. In a study, conducted by Choi HK et al in
Korea and published in Urology, it was found that SS cream is an effective treatment for men suffering from PE.
SS-cream is a topical agent derived from the extracts of nine natural products (Ginseng Redix Alba, Angelicae Gigantic Radix, Cistanchis Herba, Zanthoxylli Fructs, Torlidis Semen, Asiasari Radix, Caryophylli Flos, Cinnamoni Cortex, and Bufonis Veneum) for the treatment of PE. In patients with
Premature Ejaculation, SS-cream is thought to decrease the penile sensitivity to vibratory stimulation and therefore prolongs latency time.
The study was conducted in three medical centers in
Korea. One hundred six patients (mean age 38.7 years) completed this study. The ejaculatory latency time was measured by stopwatch and sexual satisfaction ratio of both partner and patient were investigated for a total of six treatments. Patients were instructed to apply the cream on their penis 1 hour before sexual intercourse in a double-blind randomized placebo controlled fashion (each patient received either real treatment or a dummy cream and neither patients nor doctors new which patient is receiving which treatment).
The effect of the SS cream was measured by the prolongation of ejaculatory latency time and improvement of the sexual satisfaction ratio before and after each treatment.
In the screening period before patients were enrolled into the study, the mean ejaculatory latency time was about 1.4 minutes, and neither the patients nor their partners were satisfied with their sexual lives. After treatment, the mean ejaculatory latency time was prolonged to about 2.5 minutes in the placebo group and to about 11 minutes in the SS-cream group. About 80% of the patients treated with the SS cream improved by more than 2 minutes as compared with only 15% on placebo. About 82% had an improvement in sexual satisfaction compared with about 20% on placebo. In this trial, SS cream was tested 530 times (and average of over 5 times per patient). 98 cases (18.49%) resulted in a sense of mild local burning and mild pain. No adverse effect on sexual function or partner and no systemic side effects were observed.
The authors concluded that according to these results, SS-cream is effective and safe in the
treatment of premature ejaculation
, with mild local side effects.
