Natural Techniques

Some men prefer not to use prescription medications like Priligy and try natural techniques instead. If you are prepared to dedicate the time needed to treat this condition, you may find that you see real results from the techniques discussed below.

The Masters-Johnson Method

One of the most well known natural techniques to delay ejaculation is the Masters-Johnson method. If both partners are willing to put in the time needed, this method has a very high anecdotal success rate. In basic terms, it is a particular way of gripping the penis which temporarily stops the urge to climax. Over time, this will effectively train the man to last longer before ejaculating during sexual activity. It was devised by two American sexologists and psychologists, William H. Masters and Virginia E. Johnson, who undertook a comprehensive study of sexuality over several decades.

What is the technique?

The method involves both partners. In a heterosexual partnership, the woman first puts her hand on her partner’s erect penis, with her thumb on one side and both her index finger and her middle finger on the opposite side. The index finger should be positioned almost directly above the ridge on the head of the penis, with the middle finger just below this point. The man should tell his partner if he is about to climax, at which point she should squeeze the penis firmly. Repeating this method several times will help to produce results. This method can also be used in non-heterosexual partnerships.

Does it actually work?

The success of techniques like these can only ever be anecdotal, but it is considered to be a very successful technique. After consistent training over several months, some men who had premature ejaculation are able to last up to half an hour before ejaculating.

Are there any downsides?

You will need to be very committed to this technique if you want to see real results. It requires dedication over a period of several months to really be effective. It is also recommended that, if you choose to employ this technique, that you have it demonstrated to you by a medical professional with expertise in this area. Unfortunately, couples who have tried to use the Internet or written materials to learn the method often get it wrong, so it is not effective. As many men are too embarrassed to discuss premature ejaculation with their doctor, this can be a real problem.

The Stop-Start Method

This form of cognitive behavioural therapy is a simple technique which basically requires you to stop all sexual stimulation when you are almost at the point of ejaculation, and then beginning again when the urge to ejaculate has faded. When this is repeated several times, it can help to delay your ejaculation over a longer period.

What is the technique?

You should begin this method by masturbating alone with dry hands. When you feel you are about to ejaculate, stop, wait for the urge to subside and then start again. It is advised to this three times, after which point you can ejaculate. Once you feel you have gained more control using this method, you can attempt the same technique with a wet hand, which is more similar to the feel of a vagina. Using this technique over a period of time should make it easier for you to delay ejaculation while you are engaging in sexual intercourse.

Does it actually work?

Anecdotal evidence suggests that the stop-start method is successful over a long period. It is considered to be especially successful when it is adopted alongside some form of counselling or therapy, which help to address the possible psychological factors that are influencing the condition.

Are there any downsides?

This technique requires you to be completely open with your partner, as their cooperation is vital to the success of the method. If you are not prepared to fully communicate with your partner about your struggle with premature ejaculation, then this technique will not work for you. As with the Masters-Johnson method, the stop-start method requires time and dedication to produce results.
