Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am 20 years old and have been masturbating for the past five years. I have never had a girlfriend; I merely enjoy masturbating. A few weeks ago, I had sexual intercourse, and within two minutes, I experienced ejaculation. I was embarrassed when my partner mentioned that she would never engage in intercourse with me again due to early ejaculation. Now my query is, are there any possible solutions to increase the duration of my erection during sexual intercourse and last longer, preferably about 30 minutes?

Kindly help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and understood your concern. Yes, there are several techniques and exercises. I suggest you try to help you last longer during sexual intercourse:

  1. Practice edging: Edging involves bringing yourself close to orgasm, then backing off before you actually ejaculate. This can help you learn to control your arousal and delay your orgasm.
  2. Kegel exercises: Kegel exercises involve contracting and relaxing the muscles around your penis and testicles. This can help strengthen these muscles, which may help you control your ejaculation.
  3. Deep breathing: Taking deep breaths and focusing on your breathing can help you relax and delay your orgasm.
  4. Use desensitizing condoms: Desensitizing condoms contain numbing agents that can help reduce sensitivity and delay ejaculation.
  5. Communicate with your partner: Let your partner know what is going on and work together to find solutions that work for both of you. For example, you could try different positions or techniques that may help delay your orgasm.
  6. It is normal for men to ejaculate quickly during their first sexual experiences, so do not be too hard on yourself. With practice and patience, you can improve your stamina during intercourse. I hope this has helped you. Kindly follow up if you have more doubts.

    Thank you.
