Top 7 Homeopathic Medicines for Painful Ejaculation and its Causes

Ejaculation refers to the discharge of semen from penis during orgasm (climax of sexual excitation) in males. Ejaculation is a normal process and should not cause any pain or discomfort. But some males, feel pain during ejaculation. This might occur due to several causes. Painful ejaculation is medically known as dysorgasmia or odynorgasmia. Pain can occur during ejaculation or soon after it, varying from case to case. Pain may be felt in the penis, urethra, scrotum, perineum (the area between genitals and the anus), urinary bladder, rectum, groin (crease between lower abdomen and thigh) or the lower abdomen.

Painful ejaculation can be acute which appears suddenly for a short time span, or chronic which appears gradually and remains for a long period of time. It might happen from multiple reasons. The first and most important reason behind it is prostate gland inflammation i.e. prostatitis. In this condition, painful ejaculation may occur with other symptoms including pain / burning while passing urine, pain in the pelvic area or pain/burning genitals or groin, frequent urine, urgency to urinate and blood in urine. It may also occur in case of enlarged prostate i.e. BPH – Benign Prostate Enlargement.

This can cause pain during ejaculation along with symptoms like frequent urination, straining to pass urinate, sudden urge to pass urine, weak urine stream, dribbling at the end of urination and incomplete emptying of bladder.  Painful ejaculation can also arise from sexually transmitted infections STIs (for example in case of chlamydia and trichomoniasis), lower urinary tract infections – UTI (inflammation / infection of bladder or urethra), epididymitis (inflamed epididymis i.e. coiled tube at back of the testicle which store sperms during maturation process and then transport sperms from the testes to vas deferens)).

Another cause can be nerve injury to the pelvis (pudendal neuralgia). It can also be a result of a surgery like prostatectomy (removal of the prostate gland entirely or a part of it) to treat prostate cancer and surgical procedure to repair inguinal hernia.

Other reasons are use of certain medicines (antidepressants like anafranil, norpramin, Prozac), pelvic radiation, cyst/stones in the ejaculatory duct, nervous system issues that damage the nerves linked with ejaculation (like from diabetes or an injury to spinal cord), certain psychological reasons (like stress, anxiety and depression) and prostate cancer.

As per the cause behind painful ejaculation some other symptoms can also attend like burning with ejaculation, urinary symptoms like painful urine, burning while passing urine, frequent urination, urgency to urinate, blood in the urine, abnormal discharge from the penis and blood in the semen.
