Psychosexual problems are largely caused by anxiety related to the sex act or any antecedent event during which anxiety was triggered. One's emotions, sexual understanding and socio cultural influences have a major role to play. Anxiety thus results in erectile dysfunction and/or premature ejaculation. A psychiatrist or a psychotherapist works with the client to explore these issues and conflicts so as to reach the root cause of anxiety. Medicines are available for symptomatic relief.
