Medical science has given us more options for treating premature ejaculation than ever before.  In theory this should mean that more men than ever have been able to get the help they need to finally treat their chronic premature ejaculation once and for all.  But, instead, the opposite seems to be happening.  You don’t have to spend much time online talking to guys to find out that orgasm dysfunction and problems with sexual health in general seem to be on the rise – so what gives?
The problem – ironically – could be in the wealth of options we have today.  Even when it comes to simply treating early ejaculation men have a number of choices and each one might work well, but they need to be able to figure out which to choose.  And which one will help them address the underlying cause as opposed to simply covering it up.  This can be a daunting task, so we’ve made it easier by breaking everything down and showing you what works for which guys, and which might be right for you.

Numbing Creams and Gels

Creams, lotions and gels that numb the area are often the first thing guys reach for when they have to treat premature ejaculation.  After all, these products are cheap, easy to get and easy to use on the fly.  But they don’t actually treat anything – they just mask the problem.  These creams desensitise the area around the penis, reducing how much you feel when having sex – that’s the trade-off.  Still they can be a handy way to deal with a quick one-off episode.  Perfect For: Guys who rarely have the problem or who think it will only strike once.

Cock Rings

Cock rings are often used to help with weak erections but they can also help men last longer, even if they don’t strictly qualify for being diagnosed with premature ejaculation.  They can be a bit uncomfortable though – especially at first – so keep that in mind when you go to wear it for the first time. Perfect For:  Men who like a little pain and who don’t want to lose any sensitivity when treating premature ejaculation.

Stamina Supplements or Diet & Exercise Plans

Supplements are often used in conjunction with diet and exercise to literally treat premature ejaculation from the inside out.  This is one of the most effective methods as it target two of the most common causes of sexual dysfunction – nutrition and physical health.  But this can also be the slowest in terms of giving you results.  As a result, plenty of guys use this approach alongside numbing agents, cock rings or other options that offer quick results.  Perfect For:  Men who are ok with stop gap measures now, but who want to lay the groundwork for a healthy future.

Controlled Masturbation

Controlled masturbation is a form of sex therapy where men bring themselves close to orgasm but then slow things down, change their rhythm or whatever else they need to do to prevent from actually climaxing.  Over time, they are able to use these techniques to increase their stamina in bed.  Perfect For:  Men who want to use their own willpower and physical strength to help in controlling their sexual performance.

Off-Label Medications

Some doctors have begun prescribing medications like anti-depressants in order to treat premature ejaculation.  The off-label use of these medications is more common now, but they come with a host of possible side effects including weight gain, depression and a loss of sexual interest.  Perfect For:  Men who want something that will work now, but who are able to deal with the sometimes serious side effects that can occur.

Botox

Finally, there’s Botox.  Botox is often thought of as just something for cosmetic surgery but it has been used for a number of other conditions including bladder problems, migraines and premature ejaculation.  Of course this is a fairly serious procedure and it does involve a needle being inserted into your penis – so there’s that.  On the up side, many clients swear it works perfectly.  Perfect For:  Men who don’t want to go the pill route and who are feeling a bit adventurous when it comes to treatment options.
