5 Ways to Slow Things Down when Premature Ejaculation Strikes

Problems with sexual performance can happen to any man, regardless of age, social standing or how much (or little) he takes care of his health. The fact of the matter is premature ejaculation is an equal opportunity condition and nearly every man has to deal with it at some point during his life. This isn’t welcome news for many men, but it can help to know that there are a number of different treatment options men can begin on their own which can help to treat the problem safely and effectively.

1. Pay Attention to Your Diet

Diet plays a huge role in your overall health, including how well you perform between the sheets. Including more fresh fruit and raw vegetables can give your body the essential vitamins, amino acids and healthy fats it needs in order to boost your energy, improve stamina, treat premature ejaculation and even boost your libido. Cutting back on salt, fat and sugar can be difficult at first so consulting with a medical professional or nutritionist can help your create a diet plan that helps you to achieve your goals without making it too difficult to stick to it.

  1. Improve Physical Fitness

Of course, where diet is concerned, physical fitness soon follows. As your diet improves and your energy levels are set higher, taking on more physical activities is a natural next step. Whether you choose low impact workouts or begin something more arduous, any increase in physical activity can help. If it’s been a long time since you’ve hit the gym, start slow in order to avoid strain. Even swapping out your usual desk chair for a balance ball can help improve core muscles and gets you feeling more active. Walking, playing team sports and even just going through a workout DVD in your living room are fine ways to start. Over time, increasing your activity becomes easier and easier.

  1. Relieve Stress

One of the biggest contributing factors to premature ejaculation is stress. This stress can come from anywhere and it can have far reaching implications. Stress levels have been linked to obesity, high blood pressure, depression and a host of other conditions, including nearly every sexual dysfunction you can think of. Finding a way to deal with and then release stress can have a huge and almost immediate effect on your health and your sexual performance. Physical activity is a great way to “blow off some steam” as is meditation, which can help to calm your mind and has proven effective with people who feel their brains go a mile a minute no matter how much they try to relax.

  1. Take a Break

The old Wives Tale about going cold turkey to help with premature ejaculation may not be the most popular advice in the world, but there is some truth to it. Simply taking a break from sex for a while can take a lot of performance pressure off, giving men the chance to improve their overall health before resuming their regular sex lives. This break doesn’t have to be long, even just a few days can often reduce the overall pressure. During this time, controlled masturbation can be used to help men regain control of their orgasm.

  1. Change Positions

Once you’re comfortable with resuming sex, or if you simply can’t stand the idea of going Cold Turkey for any length of time, changing positions can also be an effective way to treat premature ejaculation. Instead of using positions which stimulate the sensitive underside of the penis, focus on different positions. Doggy style, for example, is one that works well for men who want to improve stamina as it focuses stimulation on the top of the penis.

These treatment options are simple, easy to follow and all natural. Best of all, they provide the foundation for a healthy sex life for years to come. Adhering to these simple routines can help to improve your overall health as well as laying the foundation for a healthy, active and adventurous sex life for years to come.
