Equipment Failure, Befuddling Burst

A man's sex life suddenly becomes untenable when he develops premature ejaculation. He wants to justify his wife's tolerance for the problem, and he struggles with doubts about his performance. What has happened? Can he fix it? Read on, get the facts and find out!

Case #: 1764

Concern：

I ejaculate way too early and this was never a problem for me when I was younger, it just recently started but happens every single time. I can't even be okay with ejaculating the first time and then thinking that I'll do better the next time, there never is a next time. Once I ejaculate I am done and can't even hold off for a second round. My wife hasn't complained or nagged about my problem but I can tell that she isn't satisfied with my performance. I am not even that old and I don't know why this is happening to me. Please help me.

Discussion：

Some guys like to keep their lives simple. They never date more than one woman at a time, always order the same entree or drink when they go out, and think 'updating their wardrobe' means changing the page on the calendar they hang on the front of their closet. A guy like that may carry the same attitude over to how he thinks about his penis. If it's working, great; just keep it reasonably clean and move on to the next task.

The trouble is that the old saying about “if we always do what we've always done, we'll always get what we've always got” may not necessarily be true with respect to the penis. Your body can withstand a lot of abuse, but not forever. Let's take a quick look at some of the ways that you may be damaging your ejaculations in order to better understand how to stop it.

Malfunctioning Mechanism

Your penis is attached to and affected by many other parts of your body. If one of them is damaged or otherwise not doing its job, your erections may be affected. A swollen prostate gland can affect the parasympathetic nerves that control your ejaculatory valve. Medication to treat high blood pressure can also disrupt the blood flow to your erections. You may also have overworked your pubococcygeus (“PC”) muscles, leaving them too exhausted to keep your ejaculatory valve shut.

Compound Confusion

You may also have an imbalance of chemicals or hormones in your bloodstream from many different sources. Excessive masturbation or sexual activity both leave detectable changes in your bloodstream, some of which can hinder your ability to restrain your ejaculations. Disruptions caused by prescription drugs can cause P.E., as can a damaged thyroid gland. It can even result from simply taking in too much caffeine, which impairs your neural network's ability to control things like your parasympathetic neural network.

User Error

Sex is supposed to relieve stress, not cause it. Unfortunately, too much stress experienced for too long can deplete or all but destroy your erections by making you too sensitive to stimulation. Worrying about your performance, your partner's opinion of you, your self-respect... and then worrying about how much you're worrying about these things... can all put you into a horrible emotional cycle that can keep you from holding your ejaculations back.

Erection Rectification

First of all, you need to give your body time to use its own healing abilities to address the physical source of your problem. That means to go without ejaculations for three solid weeks, or a minimum of no more than once every three or four days.

While you're waiting, your body could probably use additional supplies of zinc and B-vitamins, as those nutrients are critical for tissue generation and repair. Properly-prepared oysters, lobster and crab offer generous supplies of both, which is the basis of their reputation as aphrodisiacs. Alternately, you can try eating beef, lamb or toasted wheat germ for zinc; green leafy vegetables, beans and dairy products are good sources of various B-vitamins. Do your own research, try different foods to see how they make you feel, and who knows, you might even investigate learning to cook them for yourself.

A moderate exercise program offers benefits beyond shedding excess pounds. It increases your testosterone production, which assists with tissue regeneration as well as fueling your erections and your self-confidence.

Finally, consider taking an all-natural herbal supplement, designed specifically to address one of the root causes of P.E.: strengthening the PC muscle. (See: Astragalus Premature Ejaculation Relieving Formula)

Regardless of which option or combination you pursue, I also recommend keeping your health-care provider informed about your symptoms and what you're doing to address them. A licensed expert's opinions on the matter with respect to dosage, frequency and intensity of exercise, and so on, can save you from considerable disappointment, and will generally let you see the results you desire as quickly as possible.

Be advised that “as quickly as possible” is still probably going to take weeks, if not months. Please be patient, follow the directions and trust the system; you can achieve the results you desire if you allow your body the time it needs to finish everything. Good luck!

The vagina and the uterus represent the “ultimate mystery” to many people and has done so for tens of thousands of years. Some poets even point out the similarity between how we enter the world (exiting a hole in our mothers) and how we leave it (being placed into a hole in Mother Earth). By contrast, the penis seems pretty straightforward: it is the source of a man's power and pleasure, but it is external and everything about it is simple... Right?

As usual, a placid surface can conceal considerable intricacies. And, as everyone's favorite Scots engineer reminds us, “The more they over think the plumbing, the easier it is to stop up the drain.” So let's take a short trip to your docking area for a diagnostic.
