Premature Ejaculation

I am suffering from premature ejaculation (I ejaculate as soon as I penetrate or sometimes while applying condom after foreplay, and I know the reason as I am masturbating offensively like 2-3 times per day regularly for years now and since couple of months I reduced it to mere 1-2 times a month but still it is present. And I am scared of SRRIs as once I have tried but then it caused me nausea and vomiting.
Is there any natural way?

PE has been associated with psychological issues and depression, so SSRI's and psychotherapy have been the main focus, however several studies show that many organic dysfunctions can contribute to the development of PE. Hormonal imbalances, vitamin D deficiency, obesity, DM, metabolic syndrome are some of the one's reported to contribute to the risk. In terms of SSRi's and depression, my approach is to improve the serotonin naturaly by balancing all the neurotransmiters (Dr. Braverman's method) and I use serotonin such as aminoacid precursors and peptides to do so. I do not prescribe SSRI's without genetic testing due to the presence of a gene mutation that if present is associated with serious side effects or lack of efficacy.
