Common Treatments for Premature Ejaculation

If you are suffering from premature ejaculation you probably just want to know how to treat it right? Well there are lots of different ways to treat premature ejaculation. There are creams, pills, supplements and then there are also behavior techniques and devices that all promise to help solve the problem of premature ejaculation. Do they really work? Well some do, and some don't. But a certified sex therapist would probably say that the only way to truly cure premature ejaculation is to change the way your body responds during sex. In order to due that you will need to do some ejaculatory control exercises and really learn how to listen to the signals your body is sending out.

One quick cure that people try quite often is to wear a condom during sexual intercourse. Wearing a condom, especially a thick latex condom, will cause the penis to receive less stimulation making it easier for the man to last longer without ejaculating. Many couples find that when they stop using condoms, if they want to have a baby for example, that the man will begin having premature ejaculations when they have sexual intercourse without a condom because of the increased sensation for the man. If you are having a temporary problem with premature ejaculation try wearing a condom during sexual intercourse to cut down on the sensations that you feel and you may stop the premature ejaculations.

Another easy way to deal with premature ejaculation is to reduce stress. If you suffer from performance anxiety you can reduce your performance anxiety by talking to your partner about sex beforehand. Make a deal that if you have a premature ejaculation you will give her or him oral sex or something else that she or he finds pleasurable until they climax. Taking the pressure off you to cause your partner's climax through intercourse may be enough to stop the premature ejaculations that you have been having.

There are also creams that you can put on your penis that will desensitize your penis making it possible for you to last longer without ejaculating. If you ejaculate even before penetration or immediately after penetration try putting on a desensitizing cream and then a latex condom. That should provide immediate help for premature ejaculations. There are lots of over the counter creams and herbal supplements that promise to stop premature ejaculation. Some work effectively and some don't.

There is no drug that is made specifically to treat premature ejaculation but there are some drugs that can help desensitize the penis enough to stop premature ejaculation. Drugs that are used to treat depression or ADD and ADHD often have a side effect of desensitizing the penis making it possible for men to last longer without ejaculating during sex. While the drugs are not specifically made to combat premature ejaculation since they have a strong track record of causing men to be able to have intercourse longer without ejaculating many doctors will prescribe those drugs to men that are having premature ejaculations.
