It has also been reported to treat Premature Ejaculation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This article discusses the effects of Prozac on Premature Ejaculation and how to use it safely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"does-prozac-treat-premature-ejaculation\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does Prozac treat Premature Ejaculation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Prozac has not been approved for treating <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodrxmedicine.com\/blog\/mens-health\/how-to-stop-premature-ejaculation-treatment-options\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Premature Ejaculation<\/a> by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). However, it might be effective in delaying the duration of orgasms.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A 1996 study published in the <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/8863556\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Journal of Urology<\/a> compared the effects of Fluoxetine (the active ingredient in Prozac) to a placebo in men with Premature Ejaculation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Men who used Prozac had longer ejaculation periods than men who used non-therapeutic placebos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It has been proven that Fluoxetine, the active ingredient in Prozac, is effective as a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodrxmedicine.com\/blog\/mens-health\/premature-ejaculation-treatment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">treatment for Premature Ejaculation<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It increases the serotonin in the brain. Serotonin is a chemical messenger that regulates mood and feelings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Serotonin in the right amount can improve mood and lead to happiness, but too little can lead to sadness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Several <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC6407935\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">studies<\/a> show that Prozac can delay orgasm and increase ejaculation delay for men with PE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember that the FDA has not approved Prozac for treating Premature Ejaculation, but it may be prescribed off-label.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"goodr-4030239520\"><!-- ===== GRX 4-Product Strip Dynamic API \u2014 GoodRxMedicine ===== -->\r\n<div class=\"grx-ss\" aria-label=\"Related products\">\r\n  <style>\r\n
