Don’t Believe ‘em! - Common Myths about Premature Ejaculation

Myth 1: Doubling Condoms Can Delay Ejaculation.

There are no respected medical studies that prove that wearing two condoms simultaneously can dull the sensations and delay ejaculation. Based on simple reasoning, however, wearing two condoms would lessen the stimulation on the penis and help overcome premature ejaculation from a physical standpoint. However, improper use of condoms might prevent their effectiveness. Two condoms may rub against one another and tear, which could lead to pregnancy and STDs.

Myth 2: Pornography increases sexual ability and performance

Pornography makes men fantasize about sex. Although a steady diet of porn may prove to be educational and stimulating, it can cause men to have too high of expectations. Unattainable women with perfect bodies in unrealistic situations are fine as the basis of fantasy but damaging as delusion. The use of pornography among couples could raise the comfort level and put less focus on P.E. problems with extended foreplay and a better understanding of a partner’s desires.

Myth 3: A couple can still function sexually despite Premature Ejaculation

Although there are numerous ways to stimulate a partner, most women require five to ten minutes of intra-vaginal stimulation in order to reach sexual satisfaction. And about 12percent require 10minutes or more. With premature ejaculation, that time is shortened to anywhere between a few seconds to a few minutes, causing a serious problem for the fruition of fulfilling sex for both partners.

Myth 4: Men who orgasm too quickly are selfish

The most common reason for men who climax quickly is not their own self-interest. After all, if it feels great why not prolong it? It actually has more to do with the anxiety that triggers ejaculation. The more pressure a man is under to last, the faster he will climax. True, some men may not care about their partner's pleasure in bed, but don't assume this to be true if he is generally a kind and respectful man. PE could simply mean he really likes his partner and is over-anxious because he wants to please.

Myth 5: If I try hard enough I can last longer

Trying to concentrate on lasting longer will more often than not make you cum faster. By focusing on the problem, it will increase pressure and anxiety. Instead, try focusing on bringing your lover to orgasm by means other than just intercourse. Perhaps mix in some extended foreplay - before, after and during. Focusing on the true task at hand, contributing to the stimulation of a partner, will increase confidence and comfort. Taking calm supplements might reduce stress and help you overcome performance anxiety.

Myth 6: Premature Ejaculation is a relatively new problem facing society.

Premature Ejaculation has been a problem plaguing men for a very long time. In the 1940s, infamous but ultimately proven sex researcher Alfred Kinsey interviewed nearly 20,000 men and women about their sexual habits. He found that 75% of men ejaculated within two minutes into intercourse! Luckily, new herbal supplements can help you fight PE and get you on the road to a happy and healthy sex life.
