Premature ejaculation could be considered most common of problems plaguing the sexually active male in today’s world.
It is the condition whereby the man ejaculates before he should and would like to , i.e. before the female partner has reached her climax.
The male climax is obtained when the discharge of the seminal fluid occurs from the penis during the sexual act.
In men with premature ejaculation this happens too soon and in an uncontrolled manner.
One of the major complaints with premature ejaculation is that it leaves neither partner satisfied to enjoy the sexual act in the usual, enjoyable manner.
The male is dissatisfied because he cannot hold out the pleasurable sensations of sexual contact for a longer period and the female partner is equally dissatisfied because she doesn’t reach at her sexual peak.
Although premature ejaculation is a condition when the male comes too quickly, there is no limit as to how quickly.
In other words, there is not a fixed time limit before which it can be considered that the man is suffering from premature ejaculation.
A simplistic early diagnosis of the condition suggested that men who ejaculate within two minutes of the penetration are suffering from premature ejaculation however this definition has to be considered redundant because a staggering 50% of all men of the world – young and old – are known to ejaculate within this temporal space and in most of the cases the women are entirely satisfied.
The causes that lead to premature ejaculation are too numerous to address in this article.
When young men try out sex for the first time there could be so much excitement and expectation that the discharge could occur too early even involuntarily.
The world over, premature ejaculation is found more often in younger men rather than in older men.
Older men get to learn the techniques to control ejaculations better and by exercising self-control, they are able to delay their ejaculations.
Men suffering from diseases such as diabetes could also suffer from premature ejaculations, i.e. if they get an erection at all.
Diabetes, in extreme cases, can make a man impotent.
Mental stress and tensions also play a role in inducing the man to ejaculate before both the partners are fully aroused.
Similarly, some smokers have been known to ejaculate prematurely whilst having sex.
The use of certain drugs may cause premature ejaculation in a person.
Since premature ejaculation is so widely rampant among males of today’s generation, there are also many suggestions available to rectify the situation.
One of the important techniques used widely is the ‘squeeze’ technique. The male – or the female partner – arouses the penis by fondling it.
When the discharge is just about to occur, the glans (i.e. head of the penis) is squeezed with the thumb and the forefinger.
This avoids the semen from getting ejaculated and thus let the penis become flaccid as the blood gets disgorged out of it.
After a minute or so, the penis is aroused again, and again squeezed when the man is about to ejaculate.
Doing this a couple of times during each sexual act can increase the arousal value.
Also when the male eventually ejaculates there will be a copious amount of semen.
All sexual experts agree in the need for being totally stress-free when performing sex.
When having sex, the person must be totally focused on the act and no other worldly distractions.
By using mind-control, an experienced man can delay his ejaculation.
One further method is to masturbate just a few minutes prior to the sexual act.
Masturbation relieves some of the sexual frustration.
Since an ejaculation has already taken place, the man will last a longer time before ejaculating when having sex with his female partner.
During the sexual act, greater care should be paid to foreplay.
Foreplay means the arousal of other non-genital organs of the body, such as the nipples, earlobes, nape of the neck, thighs and basic contact with the skin itself.
Prolong the penetration for as long as possible and focus on other arousal centers of the body.
Talking with the partner during sex is also an effective means to try to delay the actual ejaculation.
Alcohol was considered – and is still considered by some – to be a solution for premature ejaculation.
The prime argument in its favor was that alcohol numbs the nerves and so it can delay the ejaculation for a while.
The single most important thing to remember about premature ejaculation is to remember that it is not a disease but a dysfunction.
So, no amount of medication can be used to ‘treat’ this condition.
Just keep in mind that almost every man in the world feels that he has come too early in the sexual act, and that the act can be better if prolonged.
