I've never lasted long so this isn't a new issue, but really hoping I can do something about it as I'm only 23 and it forces me to almost always have oral sex only so I can control my climax (as opposed to topping).

I've tried a numbing spray but found it a bit tricky to get the dosage right.

Does anyone have any recommendations before I seek medical help? Someone told me recently to squeeze the head just before I'm about to cum which apparently helps and with time makes you last longer? Yet to try that.

Would love to hear your stories and advice. Thanks in advance!

Same here.

Mine has gotten worse over the last year.
I now can cum by just making out and groping.

I’ve always struggled but not this bad…Don’t know if it’s medication causing it or what.

Got anxiety over sex because of it so it’s making it worse I guess.

Common suggestions are:
Kegels
rubbing one out before sex
Stop start
Numbing condoms
Squeezing

Although I know kegels can backfire as too tight pelvic floor can worsen PE so reverse kegels are useful…

I’m at the point of seeking professional help and getting maybe low dose anti depressants to see if it helps.
Because right now I want sex but don’t wanna be embarrassed by cumming during kissing

Squeezing the head is not something you should do because you need to release the semen and not let it remain inside.

You should understand what makes you cum like that: is something physical? Is something psychological?

I'm so sorry to hear that it's affecting you as well. Have you tried any of those methods? I feel like wanking before sex doesn't do anything for me as the second time it takes me only a tiny bit longer and the orgasm isn't as intense. I've tried numbing condoms but they didn't seem to work as well as the spray (bar the dosage issue).

Never actually realised kegels can make PE worse, thank you for that! I wonder whether psychological help can be of any use...? I'm just cautious about starting anti-depressants for it because of the side effects.

thank you! I have been trying to understand what might cause it and had some bloods done by my GP after a private test I got showed low testosterone. The GP ordered all sorts of hormonal and other tests and the only one that came back lower than the reference range was my Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) which basically means I have more sex hormones available to use (as less are bound). The GP then contacted endocrinology for advice and they asked her to run more tests but all came back normal so we left it as they said there wasn't much indicated from just a low SHBG. I am going to have a repeat test soon to see how things are.

I've been trying to see whether it could be psychological but haven't been able to identify anything. Maybe I need to seek professional help in determining that...
 
You’re worried about the wrong head. Figure out what’s going on upstairs. Odds are it’s nerves, or conditioning, or something.

Thank you! Any ideas on how to go about this? What kind of health professional could help me with this?
 
I think i jerk off quite a lot...almost daily and when I go twice in a short period of time I don't see a huge improvement (if any at all)... :(

What about having more sex... with the same person.

I feel like we all suffer from this when we are with someone new.
 
Things that I found that help…
Having a stable partner, and having sex on a regular basis.
Relaxing prior to sex with alcohol or thc
Long jerk off sessions
Anxiety medication
Some allergy meds
Jerking off beforehand then poping and ED drug

You’ll likely find it’s performance anxiety you are suffering from. I used to find this too. for me, what best helps is focusing on lowering your stress/cortisol levels. I prefer doing this through natural supplements, ie icariin. It’s the main active ingredient in horny goat weed. For me, this made a massive difference.
also, if you consume a lot of caffeine, try to cut back, as it’s one of the main culprits for raising cortisol. Hope this helps.

Never heard of icariin… I’ll give it a try. Does it increase libido too?

Thank you! I’ve looked into icariin and will buy some to try. Do you take it regularly?

also, I read about other supplements such as Yohimbe, Maca and Tribulus Terrestris extract. Any ideas about/experiences with them?
 
I heard Cialis delays ejaculation and personally numbs me a bit and makes it harder to cum
also have you have your prostate checked. I had an undetected prostatitis that was causing me to cum as soon as the tip of my penis touched my wife.

Antibiotics. Amazing change.
co worker had the same issue. He actually got his wife pregnant (unplanned ) because he couldn’t pull out in time and it was due to prostatitis

Is there any way you can actually embrace this instead of disliking it? It seems like most of you, with PE, can go again very soon after.

I used to hook-up with a guy who would blow quickly and did so just from kissing and foreplay a couple of times. He would always apologise but as he didn't lose any desire to carry on I reassured him that it was absolutely okay. We'd just keep on and he'd cum again.

I find it ridiculously hot when a guy is really sensitive and can't hold back. The opposite, where he can't reach ejaculation without resorting to jerking himself off, is so much worse. In fact if I can't make a guy cum that's a massive deal breaker. Being able to make him cum easily on the other hand...

The only caveat to this is if he's completely done once he's had an orgasm.

You do not want to resort to alcohol, recreational drugs, or some kind of pinching your cockhead that could result in nerve damage. The same is true for Cialis or Viagra. Your body gets used to these and even if they do delay your orgasm you want to save them for later on in life rather than your issue with PE.

As far as I understand it taking low levels of antidepressants is one very common way of treating this. Find the right one and a low dose would be all you need. We're talking SSRI and SNRIs here. Don't be afraid of antidepressants, they tend to get a bad rep, but at the doses you'd be taking them, lower than typical starter doses basically, if you noticed any unpleasant side effects you can stop them immediately and switch to something else. Don't let GPs convince you that starting antidepressants is hard and plagued with starting side effects you have to struggle to cope with. If you're started on the right one, at a low dose, this is not how it is.


The easiest thing, though, would be to try and work your PE into your typical sex sessions. With a regular partner this is easy because you can get into a routine and understand each others bodies. With hook-ups you'll need to discuss it before hand. If you explain you can carry on after the first load I don't think it will be that much of a problem. And if, when topping, you need to be really slow and stop every ten seconds you do just this. I mean don't pull out but stop thrusting if you need to. Do tell the bottom before hand how you need to fuck though.

Porn glamourises hard endless pounding as a goal everyone should be capable of but it's so not true. You can have great sex in many different ways and bottoms that only want to be pounded tend to be completely devoid of passion.

wow that's crazy; i'm glad it worked out fine for you tho. Did you find that after your treatment you could last a lot longer? Do you mind me asking how long?

I hear you! I think it might be because I mainly hookup that I'm finding it an issue. And to be honest, no guy has ever made a bad remark or comment but often times when I am topping (which I now do a lot more rarely due to PE...) I can see that the bottom wants more but I can't give it to him because once I cum they usually don't wanna go again. I seriously need to think about how to approach this going forward and I'm also always conscious that one day my sex life with my future husband will suffer because of this ...

Considering SS/NRIs in case I can't get around it any other way. It's just so frustrating as I love sex and (not to brag but) I cum loads and then you get the PE which kinda screws everything....
