Premature Ejaculation

Premature Ejaculation (PE) – The Simple Facts

Premature ejaculation is when a guy cums too fast during sex – usually in less than 3 minutes after penetration. It’s actually one of the most common sexual problems guys have. The good news? There are ways to fix it.

Why It Happens:

  • Nervousness or stress about sex

  • Your penis being extra sensitive

  • Body chemistry (like serotonin levels in brain)

  • Rushing through masturbation when younger

  • Sometimes health issues

How to Know If You Have It:

  • You almost always cum within 1-3 minutes

  • You feel like you can’t control when you cum

  • It’s causing problems in your relationship

Easy Ways to Last Longer:

  1. Use thicker condoms – reduces feeling

  2. Try the “squeeze method” – gently squeeze below the head when you’re close

  3. Slow down your breathing – helps relax

  4. Take breaks during sex – switch positions

Long-Term Solutions:

  • Practice lasting longer when masturbating

  • Do kegel exercises (tighten the muscles you use to stop peeing)

  • Talk to a doctor about medication options

  • See a therapist if it’s stress-related

When to Get Help:

  • If it’s making you avoid sex

  • If you also have trouble getting hard

  • If it started suddenly

Remember:

  • Almost all guys deal with this at some point

  • It doesn’t mean anything’s wrong with you

  • Most cases can be improved with simple techniques

Don’t be embarrassed – doctors hear about this all the time. If it’s bothering you, there are solutions that work.
