Official title: Electromagnetic Pelvic Floor Stimulation Versus Biofeedback-Assisted and Conventional Pelvic Floor Muscle Training in Men With Lifelong Premature Ejaculation: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Run by Tanta University · NCT07627438 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study tests three pelvic floor treatments (electromagnetic stimulation, biofeedback-assisted training, and standard training) to see which helps men with lifelong premature ejaculation last longer during sex.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are men 18–50 with lifelong premature ejaculation (IELT < 1 minute) who consent to follow-up and do not have erectile dysfunction or relevant neurological or surgical exclusions.
✕Probably not a fit
Men outside the age range, without lifelong PE, or with conditions listed in the exclusion criteria may not benefit.

What this trial studies
This randomized controlled trial will compare electromagnetic pelvic floor stimulation, biofeedback-assisted pelvic floor muscle training, and conventional pelvic floor muscle training in 150 men aged 18 to 50 with lifelong premature ejaculation (intravaginal ejaculatory latency time under 1 minute). The primary outcome is change in stopwatch-measured ejaculatory latency time after 6 weeks of treatment. Secondary outcomes include changes in diagnostic and erectile function scores, patient- and partner-satisfaction, treatment adherence, and adverse events. Participants are recruited from the Urology Department at Tanta University after informed consent and are randomized 1:1:1 to one of the three interventions. The trial aims to clarify whether these non-pharmacological options can improve ejaculatory control and overall sexual well-being.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, participants could experience longer ejaculatory latency and improved sexual satisfaction.
How similar studies have gone: Prior research suggests pelvic floor approaches can help, but results vary and this study adds a direct comparison among three modalities.
