answer
The brains of guys with premature ejaculation (PE) may be wired to have less serotonin-related activity and more dopamine-related activity, which makes them more susceptible to PE. The best way to manage PE through brain chemistry is to raise serotonin while lowering dopamine during sexual activity.
