: I am a 31y/o male who didn't start having sex until 22. I have only had 2 partners in my lifetime, (the 2nd being my wife). My wife and I have a sporadic sex life to say the least, (once every 1 or 2 months)and I wonder if this is a cause of my inability to last very long. I noticed that when we first dated, (and had sex once a day for 2 mos. straight) eventually, I lasted a little longer. Now that we're married and not having it as often, is there any way to increase my stamina, with out the use of coitus interruptus?
- Desensitizing creams, which purport to lessen the sensations felt by
men during intercourse so that they can last longer. The limitation that many men
feel these creams have is that they make intercourse less pleasurable by
decreasing stimulation.
- Condoms are an effective means of reducing the amount of stimulation
experienced during sex. Some men find that a condom helps them prevent
premature ejaculation by lowering their arousal. If one condom does not decrease
the stimulation enough, then put on one more. Condoms provide excellent
protection against STDs and pregnancy, so they're certainly worth a try.
- Sexual positions can affect a man's ability to control his ejaculation. The typical
"missionary" position (on top of your partner) is not the best position while
attempting to control ejaculation. Try laying on your back, allowing the partner to
control copulation. In this position you are more relaxed, and can guide your partner
easily.
