Learn to Control Orgasms

Learning how to prevent premature ejaculation involves learning how to control yourself as you reach orgasm. While you masturbate, try stimulating yourself until you are near the point of orgasm and then stop. This will help you identify how you feel when you are about to have an orgasm. Being able to identify when you are nearing orgasm can help you slow down during sex so that you do not orgasm as quickly. Using a variety of positions during intercourse can help you last longer during sex. Positions other than missionary position work well to prolong sex. Missionary position puts a lot of stress on the man’s muscles and makes it more difficult to control ejaculation. Other positions such as side-by-side or rear entry do not stress the muscles as much and may help you to control your orgasms.

Relaxation

Premature ejaculation has a psychological component. When a man feels anxiety and thinks obsessively about how to prevent premature ejaculation, it can affect his ability to become aroused and stay aroused. Do not try to force yourself to relax by drinking alcohol, since being drunk can affect your ability to have an erection. Instead, try winding down with a hot bath or shower, soft music or a short period of rest can help men reduce their levels of stress. Doing any or all of these activities with your partner may put you more at ease, and since they are sensual experiences they may help you feel more sexual. Becoming aroused this way leads some men to take their time during sex, which can make both partners feel more satisfied.

Foreplay

When thinking about how to prevent premature ejaculation, it is beneficial to examine the ways you define good sex. While intercourse is often pleasant for both partners, men sometimes regard it as a sort of goal or finish line and focus intently on it. This can leave their sexual partners feeling unsatisfied. Focusing less on intercourse and more on finding other ways to fulfill your and your partner’s needs can help you feel less rushed during sex. When you are not as anxious to proceed to intercourse, it contributes to your sense of relaxation, leaves your partner feeling more satisfied and reduces the pressure you feel to prolong sex.
