Note: Individual results vary based on PE severity, age, and lifestyle. Premature ejaculation is medically defined as IELT under 1 minute (severe) or under 3 minutes (moderate). Normal range for adult men: 4–7 minutes. Results above based on MediForMen case files, not blinded clinical trial data.

First, identify severity

What kind of PE do you have before flying to Busan?

Premature ejaculation isn't a single condition. Treatment depends on severity and underlying cause. Use this guide as a starting point — final diagnosis requires consultation at our Busan clinic with our urologist.

Mild

Acquired / Situational PE

IELT: 1–3 minutes

Developed over time, often after a triggering event (stress, new partner, performance anxiety). Used to last longer. Variable — sometimes okay, sometimes not.

Recommended path Start with topical anesthetic or behavioral techniques. SSRI on-demand. Surgery rarely needed.

Moderate

Mixed / Persistent PE

IELT: 30 sec – 1.5 min

Consistent issue for months or years. Has tried over-the-counter solutions with limited success. Affecting relationship and confidence.

Recommended path SSRI 3-month program first. If insufficient, consider glans filler ($593) or selective dorsal neurectomy.

Severe

Lifelong (Primary) PE

IELT: under 1 minute

Always had this issue, since first sexual experiences. SSRI and creams didn't work or had unacceptable side effects. Significant distress and avoidance.

Recommended path Triple Nerve Block (TNB) surgery is the definitive solution. 85–90% patient satisfaction. Permanent result.

Free revision if needed

!
Insufficient improvement (10–15%): Some patients see less IELT gain than average. Free revision procedure or additional glans filler available.
!
Reduced sensation (3–5%): Mild reduction in penile sensitivity. Usually transient (resolves 3–6 months). Permanent reduction extremely rare with selective technique.
!
Bleeding / bruising (universal): Mild bruising at incision site for 7–10 days. Not a complication, just normal recovery.
!
Infection (<0.5%): Antibiotic prophylaxis given. WhatsApp our urologist at first sign. Emergency clinic access during your stay.
!
ED concern: TNB does NOT affect erectile function. The cavernous nerves controlling erection are anatomically separate from the dorsal sensory nerves transected in TNB.

Questions men actually ask

What men ask before traveling to Busan, Seomyeon for PE surgery.

No. The dorsal nerve branches transected in TNB are sensory (touch) nerves — completely separate from the cavernous nerves that control erection. There is no anatomical pathway by which TNB could cause ED. This is a common misconception.

No. TNB is a selective procedure — our urologist transects only the specific branches contributing to hypersensitivity, preserving main sensation. Most patients describe their post-TNB sensation as "more normal" rather than "less sensitive." About 3–5% experience mild transient reduction that resolves in 3–6 months.

10–15% of patients see less improvement than the 4–5 minute IELT gain average. In those cases: (1) Free revision procedure if persistent issue at 6 months, (2) Glans filler can be added at reduced cost, (3) SSRI medication may complement the surgical result.

Yes — likely. SSRI failure or intolerance is one of the most common reasons international patients come to MediForMen for TNB. The mechanisms are completely different: SSRI delays serotonin reuptake centrally, while TNB physically reduces nerve input. Many SSRI non-responders respond well to TNB.

Yes. our urologist offers WhatsApp telemedicine consultations for SSRI trials. After WhatsApp consultation + medical history review, prescription can be issued. Most international patients try SSRI first before deciding to fly to Busan for surgery. 3-month program: $148.

Initial: 2–3 weeks (when you resume sexual activity). Stable results: 4–6 weeks. Final IELT measurement: 8–12 weeks post-procedure. The result is permanent — the transected nerves do not regenerate.

Yes. About 25% of international TNB patients also choose penile enlargement (HA filler or dermal graft) in the same visit. Combined stay: 7–10 days. Combined cost: $1,296 (TNB) + $741–$2,963 (enlargement). Discussed during your consultation.

No. Circumcision removes foreskin and can mildly reduce sensitivity, but the mechanism is different. TNB specifically targets nerve branches contributing to PE. TNB results are more predictable and significant. Circumcision is a separate procedure that may help mild PE as a secondary benefit.

Visible bruising for 7–10 days. Most patients schedule TNB during a work or travel trip. After 3 weeks, there are no visible signs. The change in sexual function is the only "noticeable" effect — and most partners describe it positively.

Both target dorsal nerve branches, but TNB blocks three branches (more comprehensive) while Selective Dorsal Neurectomy blocks the main branch. TNB has slightly higher success rate (85–90% vs 75–80%) and slightly higher cost ($1,296 vs $1,111). our urologist discusses which is right for your case based on examination.

No. The transected nerve branches do not regenerate. However, complete sensation loss does not occur due to the selective nature of the procedure. Most patients describe the change as "rebalancing" rather than "losing" sensation.

Three reasons: (1) TNB is a MediForMen flagship — our urologist has performed 500+ of these, more than most clinics offer worldwide. (2) English consultation directly with the surgeon (no translator). (3) 30–40% lower cost than Seoul Gangnam for identical procedure quality.
