how exactly does SSRI medication treat premature ejaculation?

213 views

As someone who used SSRI medication I quickly noticed that it had a big impact on the time&control over my ejaculation. I read about ssri and how they work, so I kind of understand what exactly happens in the brain when taking them. what I still can not really understand is why it makes people who have premature ejaculation last longer. how exactly is the serotonin connected to the sexual function?

Also here some sources (studies) to prove my statement, I once posted this question here before and people said its biased because it was my personal experience:
