7 Tips for Treating Premature Ejaculation
Treating problems with sexual performance can often be done right away, in order to mitigate any long term damage. In the case of premature ejaculation, swift action can offer the best results. Here we’ve rounded up seven steps you can take to treat early ejaculation right away.
Tip 1: Calm Down
Early ejaculation is the most common form of sexual dysfunction for men at any age. In fact, it is estimated that nearly every man in the world has dealt with it at one time or another. In many cases, the condition is the result of stress or a poor health habit. Anxiety about the problem only makes it worse and feeds into a cycle of increasing stress which leads to worse problems with sexual performance.
Tip 2: Find a Way to Relieve Stress
Stress can come from any part of your life. Problems with your wife or girlfriend, issues at work or even frustration over planning a vacation can all increase stress levels. It’s nearly impossible to eliminate stress from life which is why it’s important to find a way to release that stress regularly. Playing sports, working out, running, meditation and playing music are all popular ways for people to blow off some steam. Find an activity that you enjoy and that gets your body moving – it’s a surefire combination to knock out stress.
Tip 3: Clean Up Your Diet
A modern lifestyle often means eating on the run but a diet filled with fast food burgers, drive-through tacos and other highly processed convenience foods means your body is getting way too much salt, far and sugar which can lead to a host of health problems. Weight gain, high blood pressure, bad skin and problems with sexual performance can all be traced back, in part, to a poor diet. Take a week off convenience foods and switch to a fresh, whole food and plant strong diet. It may a few days for your body to adjust but the difference will be noticeable.Tip 4: Talk to Your Partner
If you’re in a committed or regular relationship, then your partner already knows about your problem with premature ejaculation. To not discuss it openly can easily drive a wedge between the two of you. These discussions are never easy but bringing the subject out into the open will show your partner how much you value her input and helps to take some of the pressure off of you. Sharing the problem can also lead to a more intimate connection between you as well as support as you adopt various changes to your lifestyle in order to address the problem.Tip 5: Turn Off the TV
After a long day at work, it can be tempting to come home, turn on the TV and turn off your brain. This may seem like it helps you to unwind, but it could actually be contributing to your lackluster performance between the sheets. Regular exercise and a generally more active lifestyle can help to improve circulation, respiration and increase strength – all of which can help you improve your sex life as well as keeping you fit.
Tip 6: Masturbate
For men dealing with premature ejaculation, masturbation may seem like an unlikely form of treatment. However, masturbating more often can help to desensitize your penis a bit and also help you to identify when you’re about to have an orgasm so you can back off and regain control. This act of getting close to orgasm then backing off is called edging and has been a useful technique for many men dealing with premature ejaculation as well as a sexual fetish in its own right.
Tip 7: Keep an Open Mind
Premature ejaculation is a fickle condition. Men may deal with bouts of it sporadically throughout their lives or they deal with it once or twice and never again. Part of dealing successfully with the condition is a willingness to go with the flow. Sometimes changing sexual positions often can help to delay ejaculation. Other times mutual masturbation, non-penetrative sex acts or the use of special toys can do the trick. Don’t be afraid to try new things in order to treat the condition. This open mindedness can help lead you to an effective solution and keep the spice in your sex life.
