There are many therapeutic approaches and some of them can really help a man!
Sexual behavioral therapy
The first step in treatment of premature ejaculation should be relieving any underlying performance pressure or anxiety in the male. In the last couple of years, sexual behavioral therapy has been improved and sexologist recommend several “exercises” to improve man’s ability to control his ejaculation!
One of the most common methods is definitely masturbation. If a person masturbates about two and a half hours before the sexual intercourse, it will help him to have a stronger and longer-lasting erection.
“The stop-and-start technique”
There is also an interesting technique called “The stop-and-start technique”.It is based on the practice of taking a break just before reaching the orgasm. It is also one of the most effective methods.
“The Squeeze method”
Everyone has heard about the famous “Squeeze method”! It is very similar to already described “The stop-and-start method” with one difference: When a person feels that he is about to have an orgasm he should try squeezing the tip of his penis with a thumb and index finger for several seconds. Then, he should continue with sexual intercourse.
Sex positions
Most of the experts suggest practicing “the lower sex position” as much as couples can so man can relax more and reduce sensitivity in his penis a bit!
Kegel exercises
Most of the men have never heard about the Kegel exercises. They consist of Flexing the pelvic muscle, which could be exercised while urinating. The flow of urine should be stopped and then released couple of times a day. Several scientists claim that this also plays an extremely important role in achieving ejaculatory control.
According to scientific researches made in the past, practicing any of these methods for at least couple of weeks will help about 95 percent of men feel more in control of their ejaculation timing.
Desensitizing creams
Beside these behavioral ways to reduce the sensitivity of your penis, there are also some, more artificial, but equally effective ways to do this. Desensitizing creams, topical anesthetic creams containing Lidocaine and Prilocaine that are made to lessen the sensations felt by men during intercourse and numb a penis a bit or even a simple use of condoms will definitely reduce the amount of stimulation and help you “last longer”!
Medications therapy
This condition can also be treated with certain medications. The optimal medical treatment for premature ejaculation has not been established yet but certain antidepressants such as Zoloft, Paxil, Prozac and several others could help treating premature ejaculation problem. Although these drugs aren't approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of premature ejaculation, it is proven that they are highly effective. Most of the men probably think about the nasty side effects that could occur from using these antidepressants but the good thing is that one does not need to take these medications on a daily basis to prevent premature ejaculation. They should be used only in the beginning of practicing sexual intercourse and never again!
Psychotherapy
If nothing else helps, a person should definitely start thinking about psychotherapy. It is based on so-called counseling or talk therapy. It involves talking about your relationships and experiences with a mental health professional. Some doctors recommend avoiding intercourse entirely for a short time while you are on therapy.
Not only that it is highly effective, but it can also help you overcome several other problems in you life, beside the sexual ones.
