Premature ejaculation affects more than 30% of the male population, but far fewer people choose to seek treatment for the problem. But in many cases it's not as impossible as one might think, and indeed... But let's not be hasty. First of all, we should be clear:

What is premature ejaculation?

Premature ejaculation, as the name suggests, is ejaculation that occurs too early. But what exactly is premature? In fact, the adjective “premature” is quite subjective. There is no definition for the time interval at which ejaculation must occur in response to sexual stimulation to be within the limits of healthy levels. In practice, this phenomenon means that the affected man cannot control his ejaculation as he would like. In premature ejaculation, ejaculation occurs during foreplay or shortly after penetration, usually before the partner climaxes. And this is exactly where the problems begin. In itself, early ejaculation can be a very satisfying experience for men. However, the premature onset makes it impossible for the partner to experience pleasure, so he or she is unable to provide satisfactory sexual performance. This is a serious problem because sex is an important part of a couple's relationship.

Causes, symptoms and treatment of premature ejaculation

Satisfactory sexual performance is very important for both women and men. Failing to do this can leave the partner feeling unachievable, losing self-esteem, and feeling internally frustrated at failing on a regular basis. This can easily become a kind of endless loop, because when you're frustrated and stressed, you'll find it harder to perform in bed and ejaculate earlier than usual.

(It should be noted here that men's task is not made any easier by the fact that women generally take much longer to reach orgasm than men. However, ejaculation occurs 10 to 15 minutes after penetration, while female orgasm has not yet arrived has occurred, it is not a question of premature ejaculation, but there may be other reasons for the lack of female orgasm).

There is only one way to solve the problem: to recognize and accept that there is something wrong with ejaculation control through no fault of the man. Once this knowledge is gained, it is easier to find the right solution to the problem.

Premature ejaculation can be congenital, making life difficult from the very first intercourse, but it can also develop at any age, even if it wasn't there before.

 

Causes of premature ejaculation

Psychological causes
It may sound strange, but the causes of premature ejaculation can be hidden fears belong to them that were sown in young men's minds during their upbringing. For example, men whose parents disapproved of sex when they were young, considered it sinful, or regularly warned about the dangers of STDs may develop the problem more easily.

When the growing boy is drummed into it that sex must be rushed, because he is reprehensible and sinful, because he can get sick or because he will definitely get pregnant, then premature ejaculation can occur, which occurs involuntarily or unintentionally because the body is reacting to these subconscious messages to hurry up and climax get.

Psychological reasons also include performance anxiety, which can be a problem, especially at the beginning of a relationship with a new partner, especially for those who are prone to it.

But everyday things like stress at work and financial insecurity can also cause temporary problems with ejaculation and sexual performance in general.

Bad habits

If a teen is always trying to masturbate as quickly as possible when masturbating (e.g., because they are afraid of throwing up), the rush can lead to a loss of control and the habit can lead to bad habits. Your body learns that the goal of sexual stimulation is to get gratification as soon as possible, even when it's no longer masturbating to having sex with a partner.

stiffening problems

Premature ejaculation is often associated with erectile dysfunction. What is the reason for that? What do the two have to do with each other? A man struggling to get an erection increases stimulation, focusing to increase arousal enough to achieve and maintain an erection, but this increased state can also lead to earlier ejaculation.

Other diseases

In the vast majority of cases, premature ejaculation is due to psychological causes. It is very rare that a physical illness or disorder is the cause of the problem. However, ejaculation can of course also occur prematurely as a side effect of certain diseases.

Such physical causes or diseases can be:

  • hormonal changes
  • thyroid problems
  • Inflammation of the prostate or urethra
  • abnormal reflex activity of the ejaculatory system
  • Damage to the nervous system from surgery or trauma
  • Side effects of medication for anxiety or other mental health problems

Risk factors

There are factors that increase the risk of developing erection problems. These include erectile dysfunction. With an erection problem, the person worries about how long their erection will last during the act and may therefore involuntarily accelerate ejaculation, which may occur before the partner has reached orgasm. (If this is the source of the problem, it can easily be treated with an ED drug). A similar unconscious urge can be triggered in a man by virtually any health condition that causes problems during intercourse.

It has long been proven that stress has a negative effect on concentration. Under stress, the ability to relax is reduced, making it easier to ejaculate prematurely.

Treatment of premature ejaculation

Premature ejaculation does not mean that sex can no longer be satisfying for both partners. Symptoms can be alleviated or even eliminated in a number of ways. First, however, it is important to find out what causes premature ejaculation. Once this is done, targeted treatment can begin. The following methods or a combination of methods are recommended.

sex therapy

If you have a problem, you can seek sex therapy. In this case, a sexologist will help you identify the causes of your symptoms and give you tips and suggest exercises to help you overcome the problem and treat the dysfunction.

Practical techniques – treatment of premature ejaculation at home.

There are some handy techniques that can be used to treat premature ejaculation at home.

printing technique. The pressure technique is when a man, who during foreplay feels like he is about to ejaculate, or his partner, applies pressure to the part of the penis that is between the glans and the shaft of the penis. The pressure eliminates the urge to ejaculate. Sexual stimulation can then be continued. If an orgasm occurs again prematurely, the stimulation can be canceled again by repeated pressure. When penetration occurs, ejaculation will be slightly delayed. With a series of exercises, you can slowly learn to consciously delay ejaculation over time.

interruption. With a little attention and practice, one can find out what vibrations in the body are sure signs that ejaculation is occurring quickly. By noticing the signals, you will know when to stop and discontinue sexual stimulation. By stopping, the stimulation will slowly wear off and you can resume intercourse where you left off.

Find the right position. It is important to find a body position in which the female partner can experience sexual intercourse more intensively and the man at risk of premature ejaculation can experience it less intensely. Once this position has been found, the “balance of power” is balanced and there is a greater chance that the other partner will reach orgasm before ejaculation.

Long foreplay. With sufficiently intense and long foreplay, it is possible to increase the partner's desire and increase his or her arousal threshold to the point where he or she orgasms within seconds of penetration. If successful, the partners can be brought together, virtually eliminating the ejaculation problem.

Delaying ejaculation by strengthening the PC muscle

This method is an alternate version of the clamp method. In this case, you don't need to squeeze the penis by hand, you can squeeze the ejaculation duct from the inside out by developing a special muscle. Acquiring this ability takes some practice and building and strengthening muscles (basically the same muscles responsible for urine retention). It can be increased by shorter and longer contractions. Basically, it's nothing more than a kind of intimate gymnastics for men).

Medicine for vorzeitige Ejakulation

There are certain medications and creams with active ingredients that reduce the sensitivity of the penis and therefore the occurrence of ejaculation. Because they are medicines, these products can only be prescribed by a doctor. They should be used with caution, since the active ingredients in the drugs can cause nausea, drowsiness, decreased libido and other unpleasant symptoms as side effects.

Dietary supplement to prevent premature ejaculation

Luckily, you don't necessarily have to resort to medication to get rid of the problem. There are many herbs that have been shown to help delay ejaculation and thereby treat premature ejaculation. These herbs are then used to make simple and convenient capsules and creams that make life easier for men. After use, ejaculation delaying creams decrease the sensitivity of the penis, requiring more intense and longer-lasting stimulation to achieve orgasm.

Ejaculation delaying supplements use herbal ingredients to achieve the desired result. They have the advantage over drugs in that they have no known side effects and do not require a prior medical examination or prescription. Quality products tested by OETI are safe.

A thicker one Kondom decreases the intensity of sexual stimulation, so in itself it may contribute to some degree of delay. However, there are specially designed condoms that are designed to prolong the intercourse. These condoms also contain substances similar to pflanzlich to delay creams. Substances that reduce the sensitivity of the penis, allowing longer sexual intercourse.

Being in a relationship without satisfying sex is almost impossible. Couples can initially come to terms with the problem, then avoid the discomfort and have less and less sexual intercourse until, in many cases, the sexual problem leads to the end of the relationship.

But the problem can be fixed, so it should not be hidden. The success that comes after a long time when a man finally feels like he can control his ejaculation is a direct path to resolution. With the first small successes, self-confidence is strengthened
