PE treatment is generally not covered by MediSave or most private insurance plans, as it is classified as a sexual health / lifestyle condition. Consultations may be covered under general outpatient benefits depending on your plan. SSRIs prescribed for concurrent depression or anxiety may have broader coverage.
Generic daily SSRIs (sertraline or paroxetine) through noah™ or a GP. At S$15–40/month for medication plus affordable consultation, this approach provides the best efficacy per dollar.
Sex therapy can be very effective, particularly for psychogenic PE and relationship-related issues. It's often most cost-effective when combined with medication (addressing both physiological and psychological components).
Possibly for the consultation component. Most corporate medical plans cover GP visits. The medication may not be covered if specifically coded for PE, but discuss options with your HR department.
Yes. Generic dapoxetine, paroxetine, and sertraline contain the same active ingredients as branded versions and meet HSA bioequivalence standards.
