recent Men's Health survey, men's number one sexual concern was the dreaded premature ejaculation. Nearly 75% of those surveyed admitted they want to know how to last longer in bed.
First, if you don't even have a partner yet, then you'll need these insider tips on how to get any girl you want or the 30 sexiest things to say to your girlfriend.
First, the good news: The average guy lasts only 5 to 10 minutes.
So, don't be intimidated by the porn scene you watched earlier that lasted longer than Titanic.
The fact is: Premature ejaculation can be defined as having an orgasm any time before you would like to. Obviously, this can vary greatly. Some guys may just want to last 5 minutes, while others may want to be able to enjoy marathon Tantric sex sessions.
Either way, there are ways you can improve and enhance your ability to control ejaculation. Click on any of the following tips for more information on how to use them for better sex.
| 10 WAYS TO LAST LONGER IN BED The average guy lasts only 5 to 10 minutes during sex, and 71 percent of men want better sexual endurance. Use these strategies and ye shall, ahem, overcome |
| |  | |
| | Master masturbation. Masturbate with a woman's orgasm in mind, not your own. In other words, take your time: Work up to 15 minutes. Bring yourself close to the point of no return, but don't let yourself ejaculate until time is up. | |
| | | |
| | Squeeze. If you're overheating during sex, stop and squeeze right below the head of your penis, focusing the pressure on the urethra — the tube running along the underside of the penis. This pushes blood out of the penis and momentarily represses the ejaculatory response. | |
| | | |
| | Pinpoint ejaculatory inevitability. The process of sexual response has four phases: excitement, plateau, orgasm, and resolution. The trick is to recognize the spectrum of feelings throughout the process. Rate your sexual excitement on a scale of 1 to 10. Try keeping yourself at 7. | |
| | | |
| | Sexercise. A Kegel is an exercise that helps tighten muscles responsible for ejaculatory control. Become familiar with them by cutting off the flow of urine and then starting and stopping it repeatedly. Once you have the exercise down, practice your Kegels anywhere: at your desk, behind the wheel. Tighten your muscles and hold for a count of 10, then release. | |
| | | |
| | Press, don't thrust. Press the end of your penis into her clitoral head. Linger in her vaginal entrance, where the most sensitive nerve endings are. When you do have intercourse, focus on small, shallow movements that penetrate the first 2 to 3 inches of her vagina. | |
| | | |
| | Show a little courtesy. Ladies first, gentlemen — and we're talking about more than just holding the door open. When you help her have an orgasm first, it relieves you of some of the pressure to please and the psychological anxiety that feeds into PE. | |
| | | |
| | Ask your doctor about Prozac. A recent study showed that 73 percent of men who suffered from premature ejaculation either were cured or improved after taking 20 milligrams of Prozac a day for a week and 40 mg thereafter. | |
| | | |
| | Go for a second round. Shrug off an early emission with some extra attention to her arousal (yes, it means staying awake), then getting back in the saddle. Most men last much longer the second time around. And the more you practice, the longer that first time will last. | |
| | | |
| | Let her climb on. When she's on top, your penis is less stimulated. And ask her to go slowly — long and fast thrusting is hazardous to a man's endurance. | |
| | | |
| | Stop thinking of your orgasm. The area of the brain responsible for triggering orgasm is engaged whether you're trying to have one or halt one. The more attention you give it, the more likely it is to arrive. Focus on what's happening now — her silky thighs on your hips, say — and you'll diffuse pleasure throughout your whole body. |
