What is Premature Ejaculation?

The Premature Ejaculation is one of the most common sexual health issues in men today. It occurs when a man actually ejaculates too quickly during intercourse. This sexual condition has already affected as many as 30% of the men. Although looking at the average ejaculation duration, it is five and a half minutes. So, when a person ejaculates faster than this time duration, then one has to think about various tactics to improve it. For the man and partner, quick ejaculation may not be an issue but at times it causes distress and couple may wish to address this particular difficulty. For some of the men, this sort of embarrassment about PE may lead to the issues with the intimacy with their partners and damages the relationships.

 Causes

The exact cause of PE is still unknown. Earlier it was thought to be caused due to the psychological factor but it has been found that it is an extremely complex of the interaction between the physiological and psychological processes. PE can be caused due to physical or psychological factors. It may occur due to an underlying medical condition which influences the nervous system and also the reproductive organs of the body. The ability of a man to ejaculate is also being affected by the consumption of alcohol, drugs, low level of testosterone and intake of some forms of medications. This sexual issue can also arise due to limited of sexual experiences. When a person indulges in infrequent sex or rushed masturbation where the body is being trained into ejaculating quickly, it may lead to this disorder. Various other types of influences causing PR are when a person is stressed about losing erection, anxiety or relationship issues, and feeling of shame or guilt which is being associated with sexual activity.

Treatment

There are several treatment options which are available to alleviate this condition. However if you want to overcome the PE in a natural manner, you can practice some forms of behavioural techniques which have been found to be extremely effective in gaining control over ejaculation. Few of the steps to control PE are mentioned below:

Pelvic Floor Exercises

The pelvic muscles are actually present in between the legs as supportive muscles. By strengthening these muscles, you can gain greater control over the ejaculation process. Let’s see how it is performed.

How to do it?

• You can squeeze and also lift up muscles in the region and then relax it completely. 
• Hold the squeeze for around 10 seconds and later rest for 4 seconds.
• Repeat this process for around 10 times. Then perform the quick flicks.
• This can be done for a few minutes either in the sitting or standing position.

Squeeze technique

In this technique, you have to inform the partner that when you are aroused the partner has to apply quite a firm squeeze towards the head of the penis for about 15 to 20 minutes. The thump has to be placed under the region called as frenulum and two of the forefingers are required to be wrapped around the penis area under the head where it is going to meet the shaft. This technique will be inhibiting the ejaculatory reflex and you are going to lose erection for somewhat a little late. Having high-end cooperation and full support from the partner goes a long way in overcoming this particular sexual condition.

Orgasm quick

This is another intervention to overcome PE. The two main factors responsible for it are anxiety and also sexual stimulation. When a man actually prescribed to reach orgasm in a quick manner, there would not be any anxiety. The enjoyment will be enhanced as and when the man rapidly gains control and facilitates him to get into the arousal.

Stop and start technique

This particular technique requires the man to stop stimulation before reaching the orgasm so that the level of arousal can actually be reduced before he starts up again. There are a number of steps and stimulation techniques which are required to be practised. Each and every step incorporates a higher level of stimulation than before. The pace at which man progresses in-between stimulation steps varies from one person to another. This therapy takes time period in between four to twelve weeks. Towards the end of the technique, the person will be in a position to alter the strength as well as the speed of stimulation and restores normally sexual functioning.

Condoms

The use of condoms is another way to reduce the sensitivity of the penis and it is going to delay ejaculation process. Since there are numbing agents like benzocaine or the lidocaine which are made up of thick latex in the condom, they are going to delay the ejaculation.

Medications

Additional treatment for premature ejaculation include medications such as Dapoxetine. An extra option is to apply numbing creams such as Lidocaine and Emla (lidocaine or prilocaine) direct on the genitals to help delay premature ejaculation.
Treating erectile dysfunction may make the premature ejaculation go away. There are various options, including drugs like Viagra, Cialis and Levitra. All of these help men maintain an erection.

Conclusion

Through the administration of these simple techniques which are mentioned below, around 95% of the men actually recover from premature ejaculation. Although there is no sure natural way to promise quick recovery learning to relax properly is surely going to help. If the issue still persists then communication with the doctor assists you in lessening all the concerns that you have in your mind related to this sexual issue. It is quite common to feel embarrassed about discussing this problem but it should not let that actually keeps you from communicating with your doctor. The PE is undeniably a common issue but it is treatable.
