Causes of premature ejaculation
About 90% of quick ejaculation in men is caused by performance anxiety and poor communication. Other factors that can lead to early climaxing are infections, excess sugar, depression, age factor, stress, drug abuse, and alcoholism.
How to last longer in bed naturally
There are natural ways you can make sex last longer without medication. They include:
- The stop-start technique: This method involves stimulating the penis or making love with your partner and stopping when you are close to ejaculation. This should be done thrice before permitting ejaculation.
The American Urological Association suggests trying the stop-start method thrice for a week until your body gets to delaying orgasm.
- The squeeze method: This method requires squeezing the penis when you are close to climaxing and starting again when the sensation is over. The technique should be continued until your body becomes accustomed to delay ejaculation.
3. Practice pelvic floor exercises (Kegel’s)
Pelvic floor exercise involves training the pelvic floor muscles to control certain behaviours. Such exercises include holding urine in its midst and continuing at wish.
The European Association of Urology once reported that pelvic floor exercise improves premature ejaculation. In their study, a group of 40 men within the age of 19-40 years who were suffering from quick ejaculation were trained to exercise on their pelvic floor for 12 weeks.
33 out of 40 men who partake in the exercise had an increase in their average ejaculation time from 31.7 s to 146.2 s.
This strongly suggests that pelvic floor exercise could help normalize P.E.
4. Avoid too much sugar
The prevalence of premature ejaculation among diabetic patients has been reported to be very high. Even though the root cause is still unclear, there is a strong indication that sugar could be responsible.
Excess sugar consumption also weakens the immune system, giving birth to different diseases.
5. Make use of a condom
The use of a condom during sex reduces the sensitivity of the penis, which may definitely delay early climaxing. Correct use of a condom can also prevent other complications such as infections, unwanted pregnancy, HIV, and others.
6. Have enough foreplay before sex
Practising foreplay before sex has lots of sexual benefits. Not only does it bring the female closer to orgasm, but it also raises the whole organ, making sex more enjoyable.
- Employ distraction techniques
Distraction methods involve taking your mind away from sex while you cruise. Keeping your mind elsewhere makes you forget that you are having sex, thereby prolonging ejaculation.
8. Eat lots of fruit and vegetable diets
The kind of food you eat affects your life either positively or negatively. Good diets nourish the body and keep you fit both in your sexual performance and otherwise. Stay away from junk foods as it undermines our health.
Eat lots of fruit, vegetables, ginger and garlic tea to be at the top of your performance.
Medications for premature ejaculation
There are countless medications which can be used to treat premature ejaculation.
However, the most reliable ones are antidepressant medications called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). They include fluoxetine (Sarafem, Prozac), citalopram (Celexa) and clomipramine (Anafranil, Clofranil).
The use of anaesthetic (numbing cream) at the head of the penis also helps delay ejaculation.
Note. Sildenafil pills (Viagra) are not used in treating premature ejaculation. It is an erectile dysfunction drug and can only be used if the patient has both erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation.
Bottom line
Premature ejaculation is a common problem. In most cases, it occurs as a result of inexperience.
With regular practice of one or two of the above techniques, you will hopefully begin to last longer in bed during sex.
Always speak with a healthcare practitioner before embarking on any self-medication to avoid complications.
