PREMATURE EJACULATION

In general, practice and relaxation will
help you deal with the problem. Some men try to distract themselves
by thinking non-sexual thoughts (such as naming baseball players and
records) to avoid becoming excited too fast.
Some helpful techniques include the
following:
The "stop and start" method:
- This involves sexual stimulation
until the man recognizes that he is about to ejaculate. The
stimulation is then removed for about thirty seconds and then
may be resumed. The sequence is repeated until ejaculation is
desired, the final time allowing the stimulation to continue
until ejaculation occurs.
The "squeeze" method
- This involves sexual stimulation
until the man recognizes that he is about to ejaculate. At that
point, the man or his partner gently squeezes the end of the
penis (where the glans meets the shaft) for several seconds,
withholding further sexual stimulation for about 30 seconds, and
then resuming stimulation. The sequence may be repeated by the
person or couple until ejaculation is desired, the final time
allowing the stimulation to continue until ejaculation occurs.
Antidepresssants such as Prozac and
other selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) may be helpful,
as they have a common side effect of prolonging sexual stimulation
before ejaculation.
Local anesthetic creams may be
applied to the penis to decrease stimulation. Decreased feeling in
the penis may prolong the time before ejaculation. Condom use may
also have this effect for some men. |
