I am challenging that belief.
The exercise, and resultant strength of the erection, are one thing. Ejaculatory control is another. Not that there is no connection or relationship between the two, but to blame kegels and the ‘problem’ of healthier erections for a newly developed ejaculation issue is, in my view, misguided or, at the very least, short-sighted.
I also happen to know that kegels and reverse kegels are excellent techniques for retraining the ejaculatory response. But the employment of them must be informed, and guided by patience and will-power.
Ejaculation itself is an involuntary reflex. We have no control over it. Zero.
What we have control over is our level of arousal leading up to ejaculation.
This is what needs to be dealt addressed.
In addition to improving penile health, strengthening erections, etc., kegels can be extraordinarily useful in training the body to cool down prior to reaching the point of no return.
One has to be committed to this and take the time to learn the body’s responses - anticipate them, on a much subtler level.
Also worth considering is that kegels can’t be the only PE that is being done. Are there other changes you’ve made that might be worth examining?
In addition to kegels, and PE, are there are the other changes? Are you taking any herbal supplements? Stamina enhancers? Arginine by any chance?
I think it is wise to make a complete assessment before hysterically concluding the kegels are ruining anything.
It is unlikely that kegels are the root of the problem.
