hi,

Thanks for posting your query.

Premature ejaculation is mostly related to stress and anxiety.

Before going for homonal causes, it will be better to consult and counsel with andrologist/sexologist
mutual intimacy among partners and understanding each other helps a lot in such cases.

Yes, the hormonal imbalance and thyroid hormone problem also can cause early ejaculation.

Do not worry. Once you consult doctor, you will be guided for lnvestigations to be done if required and proper treatment will take care of your problem.
