Ejaculation refers to the discharge of semen from the penis during an orgasm (climax of sexual arousal) in men. Ejaculation is a normal process and should not cause any pain or discomfort. But some men feel pain during ejaculation. This can have several causes. Painful ejaculation is medically known as dysorgasmia or odynorgasmia. Pain can occur during ejaculation or shortly after, varying from case to case. Pain may be felt in the penis, urethra, scrotum, perineum (the area between the genitals and the anus), the urinary bladder, the rectum, the groin (fold between the lower abdomen and the thigh) or the lower abdomen.
Painful ejaculation can be acute, occurring suddenly over a short period of time, or chronic, occurring gradually and lasting over a long period of time. It can have several reasons. The first and foremost reason behind this is inflammation of the prostate gland, i.e. prostatitis. In this condition, painful ejaculation may occur with other symptoms including pain/burning during urination, pain in the pelvic area or pain/burning in the genitals or groin, frequent urination, urge to urinate and blood in the urine. It can also occur with an enlarged prostate, for example BPH – benign prostate enlargement.
This can cause pain during ejaculation, along with symptoms such as frequent urination, difficulty urinating, sudden urge to urinate, weak urine flow, dribbling at the end of urination and incomplete emptying of the bladder. Painful ejaculation can also be the result of sexually transmitted infections, STDs (for example in the case of chlamydia and trichomoniasis), lower urinary tract infections – UTI (inflammation/infection of the bladder or urethra), epididymitis (inflamed epididymis, i.e. a coiled tube at the back of the testicle that stores sperm during the maturation process and then transports sperm from the testes to the vas deferens)).
Another cause may be nerve damage to the pelvis (pudendal neuralgia). It can also result from surgery such as prostatectomy (removal of all or part of the prostate gland) to treat prostate cancer or surgery to repair an inguinal hernia.
Other reasons include use of certain medications (antidepressants such as anafranil, norpramin, Prozac), pelvic radiation, cysts/stones in the ejaculatory duct, nervous system problems that damage the nerves related to ejaculation (such as due to diabetes or spinal cord injury), certain psychological reasons (such as stress, anxiety and depression) and prostate cancer.
Depending on the cause behind the painful ejaculation, other symptoms may also occur such as burning sensation during ejaculation, urinary symptoms such as painful urine, burning sensation while urinating, frequent urination, urge to urinate, blood in urine, abnormal discharge from the penis and blood into the urinary tract. sperm.
Homeopathic treatment
Homeopathy has a wide scope in treating cases of painful ejaculation. Homeopathic medicines help gradually reduce the frequency and intensity of this complaint. They work great in both acute and long-term cases by focusing on the reason behind it. Homeopathic medicines work in the most natural way to treat this condition and there are no side effects of these medicines. Besides pain, homeopathic medicines also treat any associated symptoms such as painful/burning urination, frequent urination, urge to urinate, erection problems or premature ejaculation.
The most suitable homeopathic medicine for the treatment of these cases is selected after a detailed analysis of each individual case, taking into account the cause and characteristic symptoms. So, it is advised to use homeopathic medicines under the guidance of a homeopathic doctor after detailed case evaluation and avoid self-medication.
