Considerations on fighting Premature Ejaculation
This is a broad subject, and covers psychology as much, if not more than, physiology. But still, as I’m no psychologist, I’ll try to address some things that I can.
1) The causes of PE
As far as I’ve gathered, PE is caused by:
-Anxiety
-Too much sensation - unhandleable level
-Trigger-happy PC muscle
-Chemical problems, such as high Hystamine level.
I wouldn’t go far into chemistry in this post, there is some information lying around on the forum, I’ll probably try to assemble it. I’m no master about dealing with anxiety, but I’d guess, that by fighting PE solo for some time you can get sure enough that you’ll show proper performance because you’ve been training, and that would reduce anxiety. You’ll just think “I’m well prepared.”. Two other issues I’ll addres here.
2) Who suffer from PE?
Next, as far as I see, there are generally 2.5 categories of people who suffer from PE.
The first category just can’t stay as long as they want.
The second cum on first few strokes.
Inbetween is an category of people who cum in about 1-3 minutes.
I believe that these 3 categories have different _primary_ causes of PE - I mean that there are other causes for each category, but they are less prevalent.
So:
The main problem of the first category is just not being used to it/not enough willpower and moderate level of Anxiety.
Primary method of curing - self-conditioning through edging. Will add somewhat more on that.
The main problem of second category is too much sensation on entrance. High level of anxiety can be caused by that, but as well, I believe that it is cureable.
Primary medhod of curing - again, conditioning. But not through edging. Again, more will follow.
The third category is normal with sensation, but I believe it’s likely that their PC/BC muscles are trigger happy.
Cure - Kegels done the _proper_ way.
3) Cures
3.1) Edging and conditioning
You should really get conditioned not to cum quick. You should do some effort to cum, when you really, voluntarily want to. Edging should help you. An aggressive edging routine, combined with Semen Retention, would be good - I do it myself. Edge every day for half an hour, and don’t cum. It’s actually easier than edging for 15 minutes AND cumming in the end - just because you know you aren’t going to cum. Once in 4-5 days, have an 1.5 hour edging session, cumming in the end. If you have an Fleshlight, it’s even better - because that way, you can move your body, not just jerk with hand - and it’s important, because when you;re humping, it’s harder to control yourself. Also, with Fleshlight, you can condition yourself not to ejaculate inside pussy - just don’t ejaculate within fleshlight. Also, there, Porn would be good - because it’ll abb some sensation, and make it harder to control.
With a woman, if you feel like you’re close and it’s too early, you SHOULD hawe willpower to stop. Try to go VVC’s Wild Root method - stick your dick as deep as you can, and press further with varying pressure. Use what you use during edging to reduce level of arousal - reverse kegel, breath, visualisation, whatever. Then continue. :)
3.2) Conditioning against too much sensation
This is different. I don’t have such a problem myself, so I can only guess. Without a Fleshlight, it’s problematic. Get a tightest one you can, lube it up, heat it up, get an erection, and stick your cock inside. Go as long as you can before you feel the urge - I guess, that if you can’t stang a woman, you shouldn’t be able to stand Fleshlight as well, so it should be just few strokes. Stop it, pull your cock out, lose an erection. Get it up again - either right after that, or some other time in a day, stick in, approach PONR, pull out. Do it several times a day. If you can go for longer, go. That way, I persume, you can get used to tighness. I think you may clean FL only once in a day that way, as you don’t leave smelly cum inside. Lube it in the morning, clean in the evening.
Without FL, you have to resort to your hand. After getting an erection, pull cock skin with your ‘non-work’ hand, near the base, so if you’re uncircumsized, you’ll pull your foreskin as much as possible, and if circumsized, there’ll just be tension. I think that skin under the glans, hid by foreskin, is the most sensitive, and you should expose it maximally. Cover your cock in plenty of lube - I think in that case, EVO would be best - cover your “working” palm in lube, and slide it upon your cock, like you’re trying to put a sleeve on it. Use STRONG grip. Your cock should be really stimulated. The other parts are the same.
3.3) Kegels done right
Kegels should get rid of PE. But some people report the opposite: they’ve become trigger happy due to Kegels. I believe these people have done someting wrong. I have noticed it myself, and have seemingly found the way to avert it.
1) Short kegels are bad.
Make your kegels long! And strong as well. It’s not the number of repetitions, it’s time*force, which develop BC muscle. By doing a lot of fast kegels, you are making yourself trigger-happy. There’s a good routine for Kegels I’ve found on one book:
Novice level: do 50 short kegels, 10 4-second ones, 50 short again.
Beginner: 100 short - 10 4-second, 5 10-second, 100 short.
Intermediate: 100 short - 20 4-second, 5 20-second, 100 short.
Advanced: 100 short, 10 10-second, 1 30-second, 50 short, 1 30-second, 100 short.
Highly advanced: 100 short, 5 20-second, 1 30-second, 50 short, 1 60-second, 50 short, 1 30-second, 100 short.
Do them every day, ONCE per day, each level for two weeks. After 2 weeks of Highly Advanced, it’d be time for serious Erect Kegeling in addition.
During long kegels, you may feel that BC muscle stutters. Chench it harder! And if you can’t, better release it.
Furthermore, I think that a long kegel should be added at the end of a session - 5 to 20 seconds, proportionally to routine.
2) Relax after workout!
BC muscle doesn’t ache and seem to fully regain strength in a hour - but it isn’t so. Don’t do routine more than once in a day. If it’s overworked, it’s trigger happy. Also, don’t Kegel before sex, it’ll make you come fast. Try to separate sex and Kegel as much, as possible. Sex in evening? Kegel at morning. Sex at morning? Kegel in evening. Or just Kegel about an hour after sex.
Plus, do reverse Kegels aftew workout. Few short ones, one - two long, a few more short ones. You want PC/BC muscles relaxed during the day.
3) Learn reverse Kegels well.
Don’t really have to say anything here.
4) Not covered before
4.1) Control while humping
When you jerk with your hand, you’re relaxed. You can easily feel and control what happens inside you. When humping, it’s much harder, but that is waht you should learn. How? Well, you have to hump! Again, Fleshlight would come handy.
4.2) Sensations from other sources
As for me, I seem to be triggered mostly not by my dick, but ty balls and pube slapping against partner. I don’t really know what to do with this, probably just concentrating on other things, changing tempo so you balls don’t slap hard, and changing position to reduce pressure to pube.
Testicle massage also may help.
4.3) Willpower and control during intercourse.
You have to have willpower to do something if you are approacing PONR during sex, and have do be in control to actually be able to perform that successfully. Changing tempo isn’t bad. Tease her while you handle yourself.
4.4) Relax my friend, relax
Yes, really relax and sit there. Being calm is good. :)
I’ll add something else later.
