Hello there. Premature Ejaculation (PE), also considered as early ejaculation and can be a very frustrating time for men as well couples engaged sexually. This can lead to stress, depression and troubles in a healthy relationship. Ejaculation that happens in lesser than 1 minute is considered as the premature ejaculation whereas the average time can be estimated from 4 to 6 minutes.

Among young men, under the age of 25, premature ejaculation is one of the most common issue, recording every 1 in 3 men facing some sort of premature ejaculation. It is mainly found that the premature ejaculation is mainly situational and can happen due to a number of reasons including depression and performance anxiety. Excessive masturbation along with internet porn is considered as a vital factor to encourage premature ejaculation (PE). Studies have shown that the consumption of porn increases the level of dopamine in the human body, which results in ejaculating faster than expected.

It is recorded that men masturbate faster in order to satisfy themselves which makes the body immune to ejaculate during any sort of sexual encounters. Watching pornography to masturbate often increases our expectations of what our sexual encounters might feel like. Before you step into the medication phase I would suggest you to try the behavioral exercises which may help in delaying your ejaculation time.

Reducing the frequency of your masturbation from once in two days to once in three to four days in a week; this will give your body more time to generate enough testosterone in your body that may help you with premature ejaculation. Another way of dealing with premature ejaculation is the control of PC muscle or the Pelvic muscle. You can either choose to contract it or relax this muscle which can help in delayed time of your ejaculation.
