This article discusses cures for premature ejaculation. However, before we get into specific cures, it’s helpful to provide a bit of context around the issue.

What exactly is premature ejaculation?

There are various definitions, including:

• When a man is unable to last more than 2 minutes
• When a man is not able to satisfy his partner (due to limited sex duration) more than 50% of the time
• When the inability to last causes distress to one or both partners

Most experts prefer to use this last definition.

How common is premature ejaculation?

Estimates vary, but premature ejaculation is known to affect at least a quarter of all men, with other surveys suggesting the number may be close to half.

But, on the other hand, some surveys indicate that three-quarters of all men would like to last longer in bed.  While a significant portion of these men may not technically have premature ejaculation, it’s clear that the interest in lasting longer in bed is quite common.

What solutions are available for treating premature ejaculation?

There are various solutions available, including:

• Desensitization sprays and creams and specialty condoms
• Drugs, including supplements and prescription pharmaceuticals (some types of antidepressants have shown to have the side effect of improving sexual endurance)
• “Distracting” oneself from the pleasure of sex in order to last longer
• Training and conditioning exercises, including breathing and relaxation techniques, Kegel exercises, etc.

Clearly when it comes to solving premature ejaculation, a man has many options at his disposal.

However, I wouldn’t necessarily refer to all of these solutions as “cures.”

What counts a true “cure” for premature ejaculation?

My definition of a good “cure” is a solution that provides permanent relief while also NOT negatively altering the sexual experience.

For example, desensitization products do help men last longer, but they only work as long as you continue to use them, and the very reason that they work is because they remove the pleasure of sex.  Similarly, drugs and supplements may or may not work for different individuals, but they only provide the benefits for as long as you continue to take them (and pay the expensive costs of the treatments). Finally, “distracting” yourself from sex has become a popular solution to lasting longer; however, I don’t recommend that tactic because it robs you of the pleasure from sex, which should be one of the most enjoyable experiences of your life.

The best solution – and only true cure, in my book – is to follow a natural, healthy training regimen that focuses on improving your body’s ability to withstand stimulation without ejaculating.  With such natural training, the vast majority of men are able to cure premature ejaculation.
