What Is Premature Ejaculation?
Premature ejaculation occurs when a man ejaculates sooner than desired — often within a minute of penetration — and feels unable to control it, leading to distress or frustration for him or his partner.
PE is the most common male sexual dysfunction, affecting millions of men worldwide. At Maze, we evaluate both physical and psychological factors to determine what’s driving the problem and how best to treat it.
Types of Premature Ejaculation
Lifelong PE (LL-PE)
Begins with a man’s first sexual experiences and is usually rooted in neurobiological or physical factors, not psychological ones. LL-PE can be successfully managed long-term with consistent, active treatment.
Acquired PE (A-PE)
Develops later in life after a period of normal function. Often linked to hormonal, emotional, or relationship changes — and in many cases, can be cured when the underlying cause is treated. Understanding whether PE is lifelong or acquired helps guide a precise and effective treatment plan.
Defining and Measuring PE
While some medical definitions use “within one minute of penetration” as the cutoff, Maze takes a more practical approach:
“Premature ejaculation is when a man ejaculates sooner than he or his partner would like, and it causes distress or loss of control.”
Every patient’s situation is unique — some men may last longer but still feel their control or timing isn’t ideal. We focus on restoring confidence, control, and satisfaction, not just stopwatch measurements.
Treatment Options
Behavioral Treatments
Behavioral therapies can help many men gain control and reduce anxiety related to PE. Our providers coach patients on techniques that are realistic, effective, and non-disruptive to intimacy.
Common Strategies Include:
- Masturbation before intercourse to lengthen refractory time
- Adjusting sexual positions to reduce stimulation
- Resensitization tools such as masturbation sleeves to reduce hypersensitivity
- The “Sandwich Technique” (ejaculating first, then resuming intimacy once arousal resets)
While older methods like the “start-stop” and “squeeze” techniques exist, Maze focuses on modern, evidence-backed strategies that prioritize enjoyment and connection.
Results
What to Expect
With appropriate care, most men experience:
- Longer latency time before ejaculation
- Improved control and confidence
- Reduced anxiety during intimacy
- Greater partner satisfaction
Treatment success depends on motivation, adherence, and open communication — but virtually all men improve when both the physical and psychological aspects are addressed.

Patient Stories
Sex is no longer stressful!
I had been suffering from PE for many years and had become so frustrated and depressed about sex. Finally, I decided I needed to seek treatment. I was referred to Dr. Werner by my doctor and after my first appointment, I was prescribed a regimen of medication and cream.
The treatment plan worked! Dr. Werner and the Maze team have helped me gain back my confidence and reduce my anxiety. They’ve changed my life. I would highly recommend Maze to anyone experiencing PE.

Most compassionate, friendly doctor.
I have been a patient of Dr. Werner’s for over 21 years and he is the most compassionate, friendly doctor I have ever met.
I look for his advice even outside of his specialty. The same can be said for Nick and all of the staff at Maze.
A, NY, Age 59
Dr. Werner helped us start a family. We will always be extremely thankful.
How are you, Bat Sheva, and Dr. Werner? We hope all of you are doing well and I’m sure helping people move towards sexual wholeness.
We’re doing really well. Our little miracle from God, Anna Joy, is almost 5 months old now!! She is rolling over, babbles a lot, and has the cutest toothless smile. Stan and I absolutely adore her and marvel every day that God gave us this amazing little girl to take care of. We’re so blessed.
We will never forget how Dr. Bat Sheva, and Dr. Werner played such a vital role in our journey towards parenthood. We will always be extremely thankful to God for you.
Please send our love to them.

Dr. Werner combines thoroughness with panache.
Dr. Werner combines thoroughness with panache. I feel like his care is totally comprehensive and I feel total confidence that no details will be missed. I have very high standards and he more than surpassed them all.

The word I would use for Dr. Werner is “thorough."
In 2009, I came to see Dr. Werner for erectile dysfunction, but I was having symptoms for ten years before I got here! I had seen many other urologists, but they just couldn’t figure it out. When I found Dr. Werner, all that changed.
I was very impressed with the caring and knowledge he possesses. He really went out of his way to find out everything that was a piece of my issues. The word I would use for Dr. Werner is “thorough.”
He discovered that I had low testosterone as well as erectile dysfunction. Once I started treatment he had me come in every 4-6 months to check my numbers and regulate me. Together, we found the right treatment cocktail, and my issues were resolved within 4-6 weeks!*
If you ever feel, at any point in your life, that there is a problem, seek help immediately!
A, NY, Age 47
Bottom line is that Dr. Werner and all the staff were wonderful!
Very impressive and professional medical practice. Top staff, rigorous process, timely service and excellent follow-up. There is also a positive and vibrant demeanor projected by everyone in the office that I have not seen in other places. There is extensive testing that can get pricey for out of network patients, but cannot argue with the treatment process, quality and results. Bottom line is that Dr. Werner and all the staff are wonderful!

Dr. Werner and team are knowledgeable, confident and really care about you as an individual!
My first impressions of Dr. Werner: smart, caring, confident, warm. He really listened to me and demonstrated a high level of confidence that he could help me. He understood the impact my symptoms were having on my life and didn’t minimize them. Paul (therapist) and Kristy (exercise physiologist) were also professional and inspired both calm and confidence.
I was initially referred to Dr. Werner for ED and began using a combination of medication and penile injections. Once Dr. Werner found the right dose for me, I was able to get the best erection I had had in over six months. I later developed Peyronie’s Disease as well. I was fortunate that Dr. Werner had significant experience treating Peyronie’s Disease, as he was able to assess me and recommend Xiaflex injections. While treating my Peyronie’s, Dr. Werner also suggested I begin Shockwave Therapy to further help my ED. Since completing both treatments, not only has my Peyronie’s seen dramatic improvement, but my ability to get an erection has improved 95%!
I feel very positive about my experience with Dr. Werner and Maze. These are good people and they are good at what they do. They understand the problem, treat you with respect and take your concerns seriously. I can’t imagine there’s any sexual health issue Dr. Werner would not be able to help you with! If you do consider coming to Maze, it’s important to stick with it and remember that these are medical issues and results do not happen overnight. I was incredibly nervous when I came in for my first appointment, but Dr. Werner has created an environment and a team at Maze that will immediately put you at ease.
Additionally, you and your partner must be on the same page since treatment is a process and requires both patience and good communication. I’m happy to say my wife and I have seen tremendous benefits, becoming even more communicative and closer as a couple throughout this process. Two years ago, I never would have believed coming in for treatment would have changed our relationship so positively.

To state that Dr. Werner saved my life, would be an understatement!
I have been under his care for almost a decade during which he guided me through successful Peyronies treatment, a penile fracture, erectile dysfunction, and in the end, a life beyond my wildest dreams. Dr. Werner, Nick, Paul, Rima, and his entire staff, have spent so much time investing in my physical health, in an effort to not only solve medical problems, but to maximize my overall quality of life.
Dr. Werner is beyond a great practitioner. He’s a great man. His balance of exemplary knowledge, comprehensive treatment, humor, and individualized patient care, has far exceeded any expectation that I have ever had for a doctor. This is to say that Dr. Werner has always treated me as a human being, first. Therefore, his understanding of the person whom he treats, in addition to only the most sound scientific research, makes his work life-altering.
Over the past 10 years, I have continually peppered his staff with questions and concerns, as I have always felt the need to stay educated. Backed by tremendous patience and humility, Dr. Werner has never made me feel like a number. I feel grateful that I found his office, years ago. To that end, I no longer consider him, Nick, or Paul, mere practitioners, but dear friends. I owe much, if not all of my progress over the last few years, to MAZE MENS HEALTH.

David, NY, Age 39
I could not recommend Dr. Werner and his great team more highly!
I have been seeing Dr. Werner and his fine staff for a few years now and simply put-its the best medical care I’ve ever experienced. Due in large part to the guidance and healthcare I’ve experienced here I feel like the best version of myself at age 41. I could not recommend this Dr. Werner and his great team more highly! Thank you all for what you do!!
JC, NY, Age 41
I have been a patient for almost 10 years...
If you want to go to an office where everyone there is encouraging, helpful, and sincere then Dr. Werner and staff is the place for you. I have been a patient for almost 10 years and never did I think it was about money for his operation.
They have always gave me clear information and guided me through any procedure or process I was working through. I would recommend this office to anyone that needs help!
SR, NY, 49
I deeply appreciate the efforts you and your staff have made...
Maze has created an experience of gaining insight and comfort with and acceptance of, my post surgical sexual self.
Based on my experience with Maze, I would highly recommend you, your clinicians and staff, to others — your approach and quality of concern and support (and determination!) have been hugely valuable.

Our deepest thanks for your support in our fertility journey
We want to express our deepest thanks for your support in our fertility journey.
We are still very much in the throes of our family building story, but as we reflect back on the last year, the moment we stepped into your office is one of our biggest turning points. We were terrified, and your guidance, reassurance, and compassion during a time of extreme uncertainty for us meant more than words can express. That moment when you let us know that having biological children would be a possibility for us will hold a special place in our hearts for the rest of our lives.
Your ability to create an atmosphere of comfort and understanding sets a benchmark in patient care that is truly unparalleled.
