In a four-week study of 1,587 men, researchers report that men who suffer from premature ejaculation (PE) had an average intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT) of 1.8 minutes, compared to 7.3 minutes in men who did not. Men with PE and their female partners also had higher ratings for personal distress, interpersonal difficulty with their partner, lack of ejaculation control, and dissatisfaction with sexual intercourse.
This scientific study, appearing in the May issue of The Journal of Sexual Medicine, is the first large epidemiologic study to define patient populations of those with (207) and without (1380) premature ejaculation by measuring average times to ejaculation with stopwatches. This average, or IELT, is defined as the time between the start of vaginal intromission and the start of intravaginal ejaculation.
This study is also one of the first data sets to address the concerns of female partners. Both members of the couples studied were asked to report on a variety of subjective factors. Significant overlap in IELT was observed between the groups who suffered from PE and those without. Thus, the study data suggest IELT may not be sufficient to diagnose PE, and that subjective factors, like lack of control, may also be valid indicators.
“Most people think uni-dimensionally about PE in terms of considering it a disorder of time,” states Stanley E. Althof, Ph.D., corresponding author of the study. “This article demonstrates that subjective factors like sense of control, distress, and sexual satisfaction need to be considered when treating this highly prevalent disorder.”
PE is the most common male sexual dysfunction affecting men and their partners. However, available data suggest that only 1-12% of males self-reporting receive treatment for their dysfunction. According to The Journal of Sexual Medicine editor Irwin Goldstein, most physicians do not inquire about the existence of premature ejaculation when the patient has other sexual complaints or when the partner has orgasmic dysfunction. As seen in this study, premature ejaculation adversely affects sexual satisfaction, and partner distress is a common motivation for afflicted men to seek treatment.

Two comments:
1) He ought to talk to his doctor, and try an SSRI medication. I was on an SSRI for depression, and (pleasantly) found that suprise side effect is lasting a much longer time before ejaculation. I have heard of people being prescribed these meds specifically as a treatment for PE, so don’t let the name “anti-depressant” fool you. Hell, maybe he’d be depressed if you left him, and then end up on an SSRI anyway and be surprised to find that he can give some other girl what you wanted in the first place! Too tragically ironic.
By the way, if you’re wondering how I made my way to this thread if my SSRI successfully treated my PE, it’s that I went off my SSRI only to have my PE reemerge, and I’m wondering if there are other options to explore or whether to go back on the SSRI.
2) He oughta try getting a few books on cunnilingus; have him check out Amazon, or tell him you bought him a present for *your* birthday. I know it’s not the same as reaching orgasm during sex–and if that’s what you feel you need there’s no reason to deny that–, but some women say that what can be done with the tongue surpasses what can be done with the penis.
Good luck.
Man you are only 18. COME ON Give yourself a break
The first time i lost my virginity I ejaculated after TWO thrusts. I also suffered from PE & had it cured. There are 100′s of cures to PE but, becareful of which one you choose. Sports & special massages have done a very good long lasting effect on my PE problem. Dont harp on those porn movies as they are totally unreal. As a general rule, women dont like to be fucked that way.
Just give yourself sometime, talk to your doctors, & don’t do anything that you might regret later on.
This is comming from someone who suffered from 10 yrs of drug addiction & several attempts to commit suicide.
I just wish I had someone to talk to when I was 18. I promise you that things will work GREAT for you in the very near future if you take some action.
P.S. If you want, setup an email account & we’ll talk. I can send you some really nice documents to read.
Ayurveda approach
According to Ayurveda, premature ejaculation is due to vata being aggravated. Vata is characterised by its qualities of quickness and heightened sensitivity to the sense of touch. This gives a predisposition toward quicker ejaculation and when vata is increased in a person with vata, sex cannot be sustained, or preejaculation is common.
Fear, anxiety or nervousness may be associated due greatly to the irritated vata dosha. It may also be due to high cholesterol deposits in the blood vessels of the penis and the whole reproductive system. This causes lack of sphincter control, resulting premature ejaculation when blood vessels become thick and narrow so that blood supply to the muscles of the penis and prostate is inadequate. To deal with this problem, we need to balance vata by following some of these effective ways:
· Change of Diet
A man with vata disorder, should change or maintain a vata-soothing diet. Follow a low cholesterol diet if you have a high cholesterol. Keep sugar intake low if you have diabetes as men with this problem tend to experience premature ejaculation.
· Almond milk
Almond is a good source for improving sexual drive and sexual related problems. Adding saffron, an aphrodisiac, to this milk drink makes it an effective remedy.
You need:
10 almonds
a cup of hot milk (cow’s milk)
saffron
pinch of ginger
pinch of cardamom
Just soak the almonds in water overnight. Peel off the skin and blend it with the milk and other ingredients. Take this almond drink every morning and you can have second helpings in the evening.
· Herbal remedy
A combination of Ayurveda herbs makes this herbal drink effective.
You need:
Vidari
Bala
Ashwagandha
Add ½ teaspoon of this mixture to warm goat’s milk. Substitute cow’s milk if goat’s milk is not available, however, the latter is more effective. Take this drink twice a day.
· Ginseng milk
Ginseng shares the same properties as the Ayurveda herb ashwagandha and is effectively helpful. Add ½ teaspoon to a cup of warm goat’s milk and take it after lunch and dinner.
· Yoga Exercise
Try the following yoga asanas exercises:
The Bow, Fish, and Camel poses
Elevated Lotus
Vajrasana
· Penile Massage
Regular massage to the penis helps improve blood circulation and stimulate the muscles, dilating the blood vessels and using the mustard oil has a heating effect that’s more effective.
Add 5 to 10 drops of mustard oil to 1 ounce of sesame oil. You can also use castor oil to improve the tone of the sphincter muscles. Use gentle strokes.
Take note!
Massage one hour prior to sexual intercourse. After an hour or beforehand, wash the penis thoroughly to avoid stinging your partner’s delicate skin with the hot mustard oil.
If you like, you can also massage the pubic bone and the glands penis before making love with brahmi ghee, shatavari ghee or another medicated ghee which you can use is ashwagandha ghee.
· Prostate Massage
Prostrate problem like prostatitis, is associated to premature ejaculation. A massage to this area with castor oil is also helpful. You can also use sesame oil.
Apply a few drops of oil to the perineum, the spot between the testicles and anus. With circular motions, rub the area. Then complete the massage using light strokes, from the anus toward the base of the penis.
· Contracting exercises
This is not masturbation nor a endorsement of masturbation exercise but an exercise to learn how to control your organ to be ready and not ejaculate.
Stimulate the organ up to the point of ejaculation. Do not ejaculate, instead sit up straight as in a Lotus position, and raise the energy level by pulling or squeeazing the anus inward in a series of tense-release movements, also known as Ashwini Mudra. Do this 10 times to train yourself to be ready and not ejaculate. Start this exercise 1 to 2 hours prior to lovemaking.
Other exercises you can try is learning how to control ejaculation by contracting buttock muscles. Find the marma point located in the middle of the glans penis, on the underside and gently press this point. Simultaneously, squeeaze the anus inward and hold it for about five seconds and then, release. Repeat this for another 9 times. Start this buttock toning about 1 hour before intercourse. This exercise will improve blood flow to the penis and helps maintain erection.
I’m 18 and previously lasted 2 minutes to 10 minutes while masturbating. In the last month or so that’s gone down to lasting from 0 to 20 seconds (I’ve came in my pants). I don’t know why this has happened but I think it might have something to do with the way I used to masturbate or maybe God just thought he’d have a jolly good laugh by giving a self consious, depressed, obsessive compulsive virgin a final nail in the coffin. I want this to go away NOW. But ofcourse it won’t.
I guess the only solution is to go and have sex with lots of women and decensitise myself to their reactions of horror and laughter, I don’t think any woman would want to be with a premature ejacultor as extreme as I have become. Or maybe I’ll just stay a virgin forever. No fuck that.
I’ve developed the habit of punching myself in the head (literally) and although it seems kind of stupid to kill myself over premature ejaculation (I was acctually suicidal before this began anyway) I’m really contemplating killing myself. I’ve got leave from the hospital i’m staying at and they’re going to discharge me soon.
I really don’t know why this has happened and I really want to know why. Even if it was irreversable I’d like to know what the fuck I did wrong. Maybe this would have happened anyway regardless of what I did. I just wish I could have lost my virginity before I became a premature ejaculator so atleast I’d have fond memories. But NO.
For anyone reading this in the struggle of premature ejaculation I have nothing to say. All I know is I hated myself before and now I hate myself even more.
Hi,
Thanks for the informative writeup. I have personally suffered from premature ejaculation for most of my adult life. I was surfing on the net regarding remedies and cures for premature ejaculation and came across this blog article regarding the effectiveness of practicing kegels to strengthen my pc muscles. From a scientific point of view, is there any weight or truth behind kegels?
One such article that I have read regarding the benefits of kegels is this: http://www.male-issues.com/the-benefits-of-kegels/
Appreciate if you can confirm facts / debunk myths if possible.
Thanks!
I have the same problem. I’d like to talk to you. Please write me at pmsguk@hotmail.com

My boyfriend suffers from PE and he lasts under a minute. I care for him but I do not think I can commit to a life of never experiencing an orgasm again just becuase he has this problem. We have been dating for two years now and each time we try it is the same. I think that we both have given up now.
Hello my name is Merle Dean Shamblin and I would like to be your new friend. I sure could use somebody to chat with. I am a 48 year old long haul truck driver who currently lives in Weatherford Oklahoma. Dec 8th 1960 I was born in Fairview Oklahoma. Moved to Caddo and Washita counties where I attended school at Colony Hydro and Weatherford. My parents Malvin and Wanda Shamblin were cotton and peanut farmers. Dad died in 99 from lung cancer. Graduated from SWOSU with a business degree. My two sisters are LaDonna Hubert and Malva Burrahm. Dennis is my brother. I have been a truck driver for 15 years and have driven 2 million paid miles. I have received many safe driving awards over the years. I am single and have never been married. I have a wide range of interests and am pretty much an open book. Currently I drive a 2006 Freightliner for a major carrier. I dont go to Canada very often. I dont have a dedicated route so I run the entire lower 48. I enjoy reading cinema music sports travel etc. I am gay and seeking travel buddies.
dont agree. many peoples dont have healthcare
I dont really have PE, but my first lover did the ‘squeeze’ technique, and stop n go…led to mind-blowing orgasm for me…I tend to take awhile…for some partners, they like that…seems like I take longer while taking macuna prueins, but MUCH more desire, more potent
There are many different factors for premature ejaculation, mainly psychological and biological. But, no matter how, most of the cases can actually be improved by some exercise programs, not pills definitely.
Examples:
1. Stop and start technique
2. Squeeze technique
3. breathing technique
4. doing more foreplay
5. Arousal control exercise

Hopefully it can help those who have PE. Good luck!
I just wanna thank the women who put no pressure on men like me. I suffer from PE but my wife always tells me she will always stay with me and that she has more than enough with what i can give her. I love her very much! And for the guys who have it, find a real woman who loves you, i know for a fact it will be easier to overcome this problem with no pressure on you…
i would have to agree to this approach, though there is some other factors.

This may have momentarily made you feel “powerful” but think of how frustrating it is to be intimate with a man with PE.. when you are unable to even touch him without him having an orgasm. The very enjoyment of sexual activity is to be able to be close and feel each other as you reach that point of excitement. I found myself extremely attractive to a good friend yet never able to enjoy being intimate to a mutual satisfaction. I did enjoy bringing him to climax but we were never able to enjoy sex as it should be due to his PE. This ultimately distroyed our relationship. I feel it had a devastating effect to his self-esteem and his ability to relate to me on a healthy level. I believe it is very stressful on the man and his stress is then passed on to his partner. I wish there were more help for men that suffer with PE. Even if you love a man the dysfunction can create a devastating effect on both the man and woman involved
My BF seems to have a severe case of PE. On one ocassion all I did was strip for him amd he orgasmed. I had never seen anything like it before. I have only been with three men but I was still amazed. It did make me feel powerful and pretty hot to tell you the truth.
Well, this kind of studies validates what is folk wisdom, which is that premature ejaculation has different roots. Sometimes your body is not working properly which is classified as behavioral problem, and sometimes is your mind the one out of focus and doctors then catalog this as a psychological problem.
Of course, different causes call for different treatments. You might need counseling in case of psychological issues, or physical therapies or pills if it is your body the one out of control.
Lately, it is been a chemical in our brains, serotonin, the one everybody is talking about. Lacking in serotonin might be a trigger factor behind outbreaks of premature ejaculation. Logically, you would need to increase your levels of serotonin for preventing premature ejaculation. The problem is that serotonin must be created inside the body…but scientists have found a shortcut, by administering specific triggering chemicals.
Yes, there are plenty of treatments for curing premature ejaculation, and this study just corroborate it.
A nice source of information can be found here:

Premature ejaculation is really a problem. As shown by some studies premature ejaculation can cause early impotence 5% of men. Of course there is nothing particularly scary, but it is better to be treated.
This site has some information http://www.vanusapro.com
I believe for most men (myself included) the problem of PE is more of a psychological one rather than a physical one.
If we can work a way forward to treat this probelm in a more sympathetic way and for GP’s to be more aware I am sure the problem can be solved for most.
My fist suggestion would be not to worry about the length of time it take but concentrate on your partner and your relationship, the rest will follow

Another study reported that “The average guy with premature ejaculation problems waits 6 YEARS before doing anything about it.”
That’s what is so crazy with PE. Nobody wants to talk about it so it can really spiral out of control. The key to overcoming this problem is to take action and don’t wait 6 years!
Here read the article at http://www.konstantin.co.nr
I have dated rich, poor, famous, not famous, young, old, and very old. I am very attractive to all kinds of men including bisexuals. I’m thinking about writing a book called, “The Making of a Mistress.” All the men I have been involved with were cheating on someone to be with me except my first boyfriend and my husband of almost 13 years. So, with this said, I have been with many men who get very excited when they are with me. A lot of them cum really fast, but can keep going and cum again. This is a very good thing! For instance, my own husband in the beginning of our relationship would cum and cum and cum. I liked it. I loved it! I knew he was excited and happy to be with me. Over the years he stopped cuming so quickly and now we do it every day and he can last as long as he or I want. Sometimes, it just takes time while being with the same partner.
It is all in your head with premature ejaculation, I am 29 and still am controlling it, I have found allot of good help PE info here:

Try controlling your masturbation, it works wonders
Cheers
best way to last longer is to practice on yourself often and try to control your mind to stopping. Don’t think about orgasiming. Theee best way for me is to get yourself to the point of no return but stop just in time so that u cum jussst a tiny bit, i’m talking a tiny drizzle it’s like a pre cum, you won’t stay as erect afterwards but you will definently last really long. your body isn’t totally satisfied with the orgasm so it almost has to try again and it takes a long time to build it up again it works great.
I can’t seem to have enough Sex to keep in a good mental status …
This is a true comment – one I felt like writing for no reason other than I thought others may find it interesting to read upon haing just read the above article.
By definition my boyfriend often suffers from PE, ejaculating within 2minutes, although this time can be much longer if we then engage in further sexual intercourse soon after. I myself, find it quite flattering that he is turned on so much by me, and believe that we have a terrific sex life.
We are very communicative with each other, and often make light off the issue, making jokes about his speed.
Another point to mention is that, on times when he has lasted longer, I have found myself reaching a point where I myself am incapable of continuing, and he himself has to stop before reaching climax. I enjoy sex a great deal, whether it lasts 20seconds or 20minutes.
