There are a lot of men who experience premature ejaculation. Studies have shown that there are men who reach climax within 2 minutes of penetration. This can be very frustrating to the man. But he is not the only one affected. His partner will most probably be frustrated as well. It is as if they have done nothing much yet but they are already done. If you are experiencing this then you might be asking what causes premature ejaculation. You may also be wondering what you can do to prevent it. Here is a discussion of what premature ejaculation is, its causes and its possible treatments.
Premature ejaculation is the condition wherein the man achieves orgasm faster than he wants to. Experiencing this a few times does not make it a problem already. It becomes a problem when it happens often.
Premature ejaculation can be caused by different things. Your state of mind can affect the rate at which you will reach climax. If you have a lot of things going on your mind like financial concerns, your sexual performance can be affected. These concerns can preoccupy your mind that you lose control over other things like your own orgasm. Unresolved issues with your partner can also do the same. And of course, heightened sexual arousal can lead to fast release.
One of the things that you can do to prevent premature climax is to practice the stop and start method. When you feel that you are about to achieve orgasms, stop the penetration and withdraw. Relax a bit and start again when you know that you have already gained control. Doing this method will improve your sexual control in the long run.
You can also try to ask your doctor for some medications to help you prevent early climax. There are no approved drugs that directly solve premature ejaculation yet but there are some antidepressants that doctors prescribe to help. However, since they are not really intended for that purpose, you and your doctor may do some trial and error first before you get the right dose.
You should also try prolonging the foreplay. Of course the foreplay should be centered on giving your partner pleasure and not you at once. Do things to arouse her extremely before you let yourself be stimulated. The longer the foreplay is the better chances you have for reaching orgasm together. Actually, this does not prevent premature orgasm directly. What it does is it prevents the negative effects. As said above, premature ejaculation can be frustrating to a woman. Imagine how she would feel when making love suddenly ends before she reaches climax because you have already reached yours. It is frustrating because you are doing things as partners but it is only you who gets satisfied.
You can also delay orgasm by masturbating and reaching orgasms a few hours before any planned sex with your partner. This will help you delay the release during the actual sex. However, be prepared that you will not have an explosive release. You may not like that very much but just remember that in so doing you are able to let your partner get satisfied.
