Back in your glory days, your bedroom trysts seemed to last for hours, becoming a blur of fun and satisfaction. But as of late, your time between the sheets seems to be… shorter. You can’t put your finger on it, but something is causing you to reach your breaking point quickly. That results in a disappointed you, a disappointed partner, and stress galore.
So you might have premature ejaculation, you think. You recall a friend at the gym telling you that premature ejaculation can lead to your testosterone levels plummeting. When your testosterone takes dip, he’d say, it’s all over. You won’t want to have sex anymore, your beard will fall out, and you’ll lose your muscles.
But don’t let this idle talk get to you. While you’re sure you’ve seen a beard hair or two fall out, it’s all in your head.
The simple fact is: Premature ejaculation does not cause lowered testosterone levels.
If you’re struggling with premature ejaculation, you won’t have to worry about insult being added to injury. Studies have found no connection between premature ejaculation and testosterone levels, so worry not.
That’s not to say that premature ejaculation isn’t worrisome. If you suddenly find it difficult to last in the bedroom, talk with a doctor. Together, you can figure out the cause of this issue, be it physical or psychological, and devise a way to overcome it.
But if you finish a little quicker in the sheets, at least you’ll know your beard isn’t going anywhere.
