The Top 5 Sexual Performance Problems and How to Deal With Them

Sexual performance is something many men work on at various points in their life. Whether it’s developing, honing and perfecting their technique or simply boosting their energy levels in order to last longer, men usually have some area in which they feel they need improvement. But for some men, the areas in which they wish to improve have more to do with addressing actual problems than they do simply boosting their game.

Low Libido

As people age, their sex drive gets lower, but that doesn’t mean you have to resign yourself to it. Sex drive is controlled by a number of different factors and, for men, their testosterone level is often connected directly to their overall sex drive. A lowered libido can present as a diminished interest in sex, the inability to become aroused or simply feeling annoyed or irritated any time your partner even broaches the subject of sex. In order to treat a lower libido, it’s important to find out what the cause can be. It could be stress from work or being distracted by other issues or problems. Resolving these issues and learning to deal with stress more effectively can help to improve the situation in these cases. Low testosterone can also play a part and, in that case, revamping your diet can help encourage greater testosterone production as can testosterone clinics which test a man’s testosterone levels and then offer a course in hormone injections.

Problems with Stamina

Stamina affects not only a person’s sex life but also their daily lives. Stamina helps all of us get through the day and still have energy left over in these evening to do the things we want once the work day is done. When it comes to sex, stamina helps men and women perform better, last longer and get more enjoyment out of the time they spend between the sheets. Caffeine, sugar and energy drinks may offer a short burst of stamina-boosting energy but in order to build up and maintain truly amazing stamina reserves, you’ll need to adhere to a plant-based diet that feeds your body the minerals, minerals, antioxidants and phytochemicals that can really make a difference. Herbal supplements and a regular exercise routine can also help boost initial energy and long-term staying power.

Erectile Dysfunction

Problems achieving or maintaining an erection can happen to any man and most guys over the age of 20 have had it happen at least once. While this is usually just a sporadic problem, some men experience it chronically. Treatment for erectile dysfunction ranges from changes in diet and exercise in order to promote better blood flow and cardiovascular health to pharmaceutical help through medications such as Viagra.

Premature Ejaculation

Premature ejaculation is considered to be the single most common form of sexual dysfunction in the world. Almost every man in the world has experienced it from time to time but still it remains one of the least understood when it comes to a definitive treatment. There are a variety of options for treatment when it comes to premature ejaculation, which can be daunting for some. On the up side, it means that if one treatment doesn’t work, there’s always another waiting to be tried. Tried and true premature ejaculation treatments include:

  • Reduction of fat, salt and sugar from the diet
  • Kegel exercises
  • Masturbation and/or sex therapy
  • Botox
  • Counselling or therapy
  • Stress Relief
  • Anger Management

Each of these treatments aim to deal with the core cause and there are other treatment options such as numbing creams or cock rings which can address the problem directly while a more long term solution is investigated.

Delayed Ejaculation

On the other end of the spectrum is delayed ejaculation which can be even more frustrating for men. When a man simply can’t climax it turns sex into a chore or, even worse, something to be dreaded. Treatment options for delayed ejaculation tend to focus around reducing the stress or anxiety which is often at the core of the problem. Short term solutions involve ways to increase sensitivity in order to help men achieve orgasm.
