WHAT TO DO IF YOU EJACULATE EARLY DURING SEX.

Premature ejaculation is the most common sexual problem in in the world.

Most men orgasm sooner than they would like from time to time; that’s normal. If you ejaculate too quickly most of the times you have sex, and it’s a problem for you and your partner, there’s treatments that can help.

Some men ejaculate as soon as foreplay starts. Others ejaculate during penetration or very soon after.

Some men will have premature ejaculation from the time of their first sexual experience (lifelong), while in others, it will develop after a period of having a longer, satisfactory time to ejacualtion (acquired).

Treatment for premature ejaculation.

Seeking help for premature ejaculation from a GP (doctor) or sex therapist is a good idea.

Treatments for premature ejaculation vary depending on the cause and whether it is lifelong or acquired.

Treatments include:

1. The stop-start technique

If you feel close to ejaculating during sexual activity, stop and rest until the feeling has gone, and then start again.

2. The squeeze technique

If you feel close to ejaculating, squeezing your penis just below the glans (the ‘head’ of the penis) can make the feeling go away.

3. Acupuncture or pelvic floor exercises.

4. Masturbation before sex

5. Reducing sensitivity of your penis (e.g. wearing a condom).

6. Medication (e.g. antidepressants can slow the time to ejaculation).

Treatment of the underlying problem (e.g. medication for erectile dysfunction, hormone treatment).
