Abstract

Background: Premature ejaculation (PE) is a form of male sexual dysfunction. As people's lifestyle changes and the population ages, the incidence of PE continues to increase. Chinese patent medicines have been widely used in clinical practice as derivatives of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Many clinical trials have proven that Chinese patent medicine has a significant effect in the treatment of PE. In this systematic review, we aim to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Chinese patent medicine for PE.

Methods: We will search for PubMed, Cochrane Library, AMED, Embase, WorldSciNet, Nature, Science online and China Journal Full-text Database, China Biomedical Literature CD-ROM Database, and related randomized controlled trials included in the China Resources Database. The time is limited from the construction of the library to September 2019. We will use the criteria provided by Cochrane 5.1.0 for quality assessment and risk assessment of the included studies, and use the RevMan 5.3 and Stata 13.0 software for meta-analysis of the effectiveness, recurrence rate, and symptom scores of PE.

Ethics And Dissemination: This systematic review will evaluate the efficacy and safety of TCM for treating PE. Because all of the data used in this systematic review and meta-analysis have been published, this review does not require ethical approval. Furthermore, all data will be analyzed anonymously during the review process Trial.

Trial Registration Number: PROSPERO CRD42017065316.
