Abstract

Lifelong premature ejaculation patients had altered structural and functional parameters of the hypothalamus compared with healthy controls. The patients showed increased hypothalamus-related functional connectivity in several regions one hour after dapoxetine administration. The changing trends of the brain functional connectivity after dapoxetine administration possibly provided important information about the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor effects on the functional neural system.
