CBT, or cognitive behavioural therapy, commonly uses the 'stop-start technique' is a treatment for premature ejaculation. CBT attempts to change the man's thinking as well as his behaviour. The technique has been criticized for teaching the man unhelpful beliefs. The behavioural side of CBT focuses on de-sensitising the penis.
The man is told to masterbate alone and stop before climax. The man waits until the intense feeling subside then he will continue. This pattern is repeated four times when the man is allowed to ejaculate.
Once the man is 'used' to this he moves on to masterbating with a wet hand which is used to replicate the vagina. The same techniques are then applied.
The aims are to reduce sentisation of the penis by becoming used to the feelings associated with it. Because of the psychological, behavioural and mechanical components of PE this is a largely unsuccessful technique.
Pros;
It is a method that can be used without seeking a professional and one a man can use on his own. It does not use drugs.
Cons;
It is largely unsuccessful and does not address many of the core issues surrounding PE. The technique often teaches the wrong type of 'thoughts' and the technique does not accurately simulate sex.
Conclusion;
This is a method which a man can try on his own (and enjoy!) but the results are dissapointing in the short and long term with only minimal time being added to the length of sex.

PE treatment - 5: Drugs (pros and cons)
The most common drugs prescribed for PE are anti-depressants. They are typically taken before sexual intercourse. Anti-depressants work by altering the levels of serotonin (5-HT) in the brain. Anti-depressants also interfere with many other neurotransmitters and different drugs have different site-actions. Their influence on any one subject can vary greatly.
The most commonly prescribed anti-depressants for PE are Prozac, Lustral and Anafranil.
For drug specifics please see your GP.
A more recent drug named dapoxetine is related to prozac. The main difference with this drug is that it does not last as long as other anti-depressants. Dapoxetine was 45% successful in trials with results ranging from "fair" to "very good".
Results for anti-depressants vary. Some good results have been shown. It should be noted, that placebo trials have also shown good results. However in a few studies anti-depressants have been more significant to reduce PE than a placebo. In some cases men have reported an improvement in PE after stopping the medication.
Pros;
Some very promising results have been shown and this method shows better results than many of the other PE prevention techniques. You do not have to stop during sex like many of the other techniques. In some men PE has been reduced after stopping the anti-depressant method (although this may be due to an increase in confidence or a reduction in emotional stress and performance anxiety).
Cons;
Some cases produce failure to ejaculate. The type and dosage of any drug vary from person to person. Finding one that works and a dosage that works is generally a trial and error scenario. It may take some time before finding an anti-depressant which works.
The big downfall of anti-depressants are the side-effects. Nausea, vomiting, dry mouth, erectile dysfunction, weight gain, anxiety, and depression are just a few of the many side-effects associated with anti-depressants.
With the added task of having to get a doctor to prescribe drugs for PE many men don't choose this option. Some buy 'back-street' anti-depressants which should never be done.
Conclusion;
Anti-depressants appear to be effective in a large number of men. Their side-effects are a major problem and many people do not like taking drugs. Particularly when it effects brain chemicals. This is not the optimum solution as current drugs are not a permanent solution. A doctor should always be consulted if you consider anti-depressants.

PE treatment - 4: The Masters-Johnson Method (pros andcons)
The Masters-Johnson method is a grip technique used by both partners during sex. It was developed by the American therapists Masters and Johnson. The aim of the technique is to re-train the penis to remove the desire to climax.
When the man is close to climaxing he tells his partner. The partner will place her (or his) thumb on one side of the erect penis (under side) and the index and middle fingers on the other. The index finger is just above the ridge of the head of the penis while the middle finger is just below the ridge. The partner will squeeze the shaft of the penis firmly until the desire to climax has been removed.
Over the course of several weeks to months the penis can be re-trained to 'last longer'.
Pros;
Results have shown some men have gone from lasting 30 seconds to half an hour. It is a safe technique which does not use chemicals or drugs.
Cons;
The Masters and Johnson grip needs to be demonstrated to you personally by an expert. Most couples who try to learn it from the Internet or a book get it wrong. Progress also needs to be monitored by a professional and unless it is part of an organized program it is unlikely to work. The technique takes time to master and takes a long time to work effectively. Ideally your partner needs to implement the technique which creates problems for single men. Sex is also troublesome during the training process due to the stopping and starting process. As a result sexual enjoyment is reduced and the desire for sex is decreased in the partner. In fact many partners are unwilling or keen to cooperate in the process.
Conclusion;
The masters-johnson method has shown some promise and good results. Its main pitfalls are the time taken and organization needed to make it an effective strategy. The frustrations of both partners may be evident due to the constant interruption of the technique during intercourse.

PE treatment - 3: Special condoms (pros and cons)
Condoms in general can reduce sensitization a little due to the latex which covers the penis to reduce premature ejaculation. Some condoms are coated with an anaesthetic which works similarly to the anaesthetic gel described in my previous post. The local anaesthetic is called benzocaine and is used in the 'long love condom'.
Pros;
Does not reduce the sensitization of the partner any more than a regular condom. A few patients have reported longer lasting sex. Using a condom reduces the risk of STDs and pregnancy.
Cons;
Reduces the sexual enjoyment by reducing sensation. Has only acheived positive results in a small number of cases. Some people may be sensitive to benzocaine producing redness, itchiness and soreness. Unsuitable for those who do not like condoms.
Conclusion;
A more mainstream available solution but only works in a limited number of cases with minimal increases in duration of sex. Sensitivity to benzocaine is an issue while reduced penile sensation reduces overall enjoyment of sexual intercourse.

PE treatment - 2: Anaesthetic gel (pros and cons)
There are gels available advertised to 'damp down' sexual sensation in the penis. This works by administering anaesthetic to the shaft of the penis shortly before intercourse. This 'numbs' the nerves to lessen sensation thus delaying excitement and the ejaculatory threshold.
Pros;
Works in a limited number of men. Reduces the sensation in the penis which prolongs intercourse.
Cons;
Interrupts the 'mood' of sex as the gel has to be applied before intercourse. The gel works for only a small number of men and duration of sex may only be lengthened by only a few minutes.
The gel dulls the sexual sensations for your partner. It can also cause a distressing skin reaction in either partner, with intense itching, redness and soreness.
Conclusion;
While extending sex for a few minutes the gel has the ability to produce undesirable side-effects and can greatly reduce sexual enjoyment for both partners.

PE treatment - 1: Distraction Technique (pros and cons)
The distraction technique is a familiar and well known technique. During sex the man would switch his thoughts to something non-sexually related or concentrate on something in the room.
This might include doing maths sums in your head, making your weekly shopping list or staring at the flowers beside the bed.
Pros;
This method works in a few cases. May extend sex for a few seconds to a few minutes.
Cons;
Limited success. It only works in the short-term and is not a long-term or permanent solution. It may be extremely difficult to concentrate on other things during sex. Strength of erection may be reduced and may lead to loss of erection. Sexual enjoyment is inevitably reduced (defeats one of the main purposes of sex!).
Conclusion;
A very limited technique and not recommended. May work for men without PE in cases of sexual nervousness.

How do I stop/cure premature ejaculation (PE)? - Types of treatment
There are a lot of treatments available. Some delay climax, some reduce sensitivity, some distract the mind, others 're-train' the penis, others train the mind, use drugs, gels or devices.
Most methods for stopping PE simply don't work. Some delay climax for a few seconds or few minutes but don't put an end to PE. A lot require stopping during sex or applying techniques which break the flow of sexual activity. The use of drugs are dangerous due to their potent side-effects and many online programs are just scams.
The type of treatment you receive should be based on the cause of your PE and the level of your PE (information can be found in my previous posting "What level is your premature ejaculation (PE)?"). If your PE is caused by performance related anxiety, for example, then you should tackle your anxiety and avoid anti-depressants.
The main treatments for ending PE are;

Prevalence rates of premature ejaculation (PE)
PE is most common among men aged between 18 to 30. It is the most common sexual dysfunction in men younger than 40 years, , with a prevalence between 27 - 34% among men 18 to 59 years old.Broderick (2005)
Noble (2005) cites Carson et al found in interviews of 1320 that 21% of non-Hispanic African Americans reported premature ejaculation, while 29% of Hispanics and 16% of non-Hispanic whites reported premature ejaculation.
Noble also cites a study by Laumann et al of the NHSLS who found that premature ejaculation was more prevalent among African American men (34%) and white men (29%) than among Hispanic men (27%).
Montorsi (2005) suggests a global prevalence of 30%.
It is worth noting that given the sensitive nature of the problem and difficulty in obtaining accurate reports from men that prevalence rates are likely to be higher. In fact it is estimated that 90 -99% of men will experience PE at some point during their lives.

Is there a genetic link to premature ejaculation?
A recent study by Waldinger et al (2008) in the Journal of Sexual Medicine claims that there is a genetic link to life long PE. The study used dutch men with lifelong PE (LPE) and a control group (dutch men without LPE).
Their results indicated that serotonin was responsible for PE. Specifically a version of serotonin called LL was significantly more prevelant in men with LPE than men without. The men without LPE had SS and SL versions of the gene.
What this indicates is that LPE is associated with a variant of serotonin and that a gene is responsible for the disorder.
Now before you think that this means that there is no hope left or that you think your problem is caused by a gene you should consider the following;
This is a very recent study and the results are yet to be replicated. This is very important as replication may uncover methodological mistakes or differences in results.
The population was a small population of Dutch men and the results need to be verified with a larger and different population.
Importantly there is no studies conducted yet with an intervention. Meaning that treating these men psychologically or otherwise has not been tested.
The study ONLY applies to men with LPE and cannot be generalised to men who have developed problems over time or men who have always had the problem but developed it due to bad adolescent habits or through stress or anxiety.
The other good news is that problems with serotonin levels can be treated by THIS PROGRAM.
It deals with all aspects of PE including that which is caused by an imbalance between serotonin levels.
What about the link between men with PE and their fathers having also suffered PE?
While this suggests another genetic link the results are correlational. A genetic link in this case cannot be inferred. The fact that there is a link may suggest a similar upbringing, similar beliefs, attitudes and life circumstances shared within the family or passed from father to son.
While there has been genetic links suggested there are genetic links identified for almost everything. Yet most issues can be treated with the right treatment. Anxiety, for example, has shown a genetic link yet this can be treated and full recovery achieved.
Whats important is understanding that PE can be treated no matter what the cause, genetic or otherwise.

What causes premature ejaculation (PE)?
The main thinking behind PE is that it's caused by early conditioning. That is you have trained your body to ejaculate quickly (with minimal stimulation).
In the early days it was beneficial for man to copulate quickly. That is they spread their seed from one mate to another in order to have many children. In the harsher times of early man children and babies would die young or mothers would perish under the strains of pregnancy. Therefore men had sex with many women in the hope that some children would survive. This programming has survived somewhat over the generations and is a contributing factor to PE today.
The second big factor is our adolescence. Our first sexual experiences are usually masturbation. We masturbate and ejaculate. The goal being ejaculation. We don't learn to enjoy the process but fly past it aiming for the goal as quick as we can. Think back. How many times have you masturbated? The conditioning becomes clear. Time and time again we masturbate to achieve the quick goal. We condition the reflexive response of ejaculation to happen with minimal stimulation. We become over-sensitized to penile stimulation.
It's a similar story to sex. Having first conditioned ourselves through masturbation we apply the same to sex. We become overwhelmed by the experience and sexual sensitivity and we ejaculate before you know it. Of course, the main problem is our rush to ejaculate, to get to orgasm. During sex you get those uncontrollable feelings and urges. You don't want to ejaculate early but its hard to resist and eventually you succumb.
Other factors that contribute to PE are anxiety and nerves. This doesn't take much explanation. The more you worry the more you think about it! Again if these issues aren't dealt with we condition ourselves to feel the same way every time we have sex and thus PE. This is where many men use alcohol. This is the wrong approach. It can lead to over reliance and dependency. In addition, sexual enjoyment is decreased and you don't learn to enjoy fulfilling sex and the actual process.
Another factor is where there is a permanent imbalance between serotonin and dopamine levels in the brain, which excessively increases the impulse that triggers the ejaculatory reflex. However, this can be treated and this cause is quite rare.
It is possible to develop PE despite the absence of PE earlier in your life. The causes are predominantly emotional stress, loss in confidence, anxiety, and embarrassment.
Some people may have a combination of these factors and it important to understand that they are all treatable. The best treatment for PE is available HERE. While it is beneficial to understand the causes of your PE it is not imperative. You problem is in the present and it is vitally important to take the steps to help yourself rather than dwell on the past.
So I understand the causes, what do i do know?
Read through my other articles to gain a good understanding and avoid using those techniques you see on TV or read on the internet or magazines. Many will prolong your ejaculation by a few seconds or minutes at best. But they take away the pleasure and enjoyment. Thus decreasing your libido and orgasm.

What level is your premature ejaculation?
Premature ejaculation(PE) can be classified in four different levels Level 1, Level 2, Level 3, and Level 4, depending on a series of factors such as cause, how severe it is, and how long the patient suffers from it. Each one of these levels is intimately related to the cause of the problem.
Now before I go any further please understand that ANY level of premature ejaculation is treatable. Regardless of your circumstances or history it is possible to re-educate your penis and your mind to solve your problem.
LEVEL 1 - Very common among teenagers, this level is characterized by bad masturbation habits during adolescence and preadolescence. By masturbating pretty fast, out of fear of being caught by someone, defeats the purpose of the ejaculatory reflex, replacing it with the need, the habit of reaching an orgasm fast. This Level is the easiest and fastest one to be solved. By following the appropriate treatment, the patient can fully recover within a few days.
LEVEL 2 - In general, it affects young adults and, in some cases, teenagers. This Level of PE is caused by stress, anxiety, or emotional tension. Work-related or personal problems, including a demanding routine at school, may trigger PE Level 2 without any warning. Similarly to PE Level 1, this can also be easily treated when timely diagnosed.
LEVEL 3 - This Level of PE is mainly caused as a development of an untreated or poorly treated PE Level 2. Rarely, it also spontaneously affects young adults under pressure. The cause of this problem is a permanent unbalance between serotonin and dopamine levels in the brain, which excessively increases the impulse that triggers the ejaculatory reflex. This degree must be immediately treated, since there is a risk it may develop into a sexual disorder, which is immensely more complex.
LEVEL 4 - This is the most severe PE Level, because it becomes a disorder and there are only a few online treatment alternatives that will help solve the problem. This case usually requires the direct help of a professional.
Each and every PE Level, regardless of the cause of the problem, result in the inability to control the ejaculatory reflex, which makes it impossible for a man to hold his erection and at what time he feels comfortable ejaculating.
The ejaculatory reflex starts in the urethra and consists of a series of involuntary contractions that force the sperm out of the seminal vesicle and out of the penis. This reflex is controlled by the Pubococcygeus (PC) muscle. The control over the ejaculatory reflex can be completely regained in a simple manner and just as easy as any treatment to recover muscles. A precise exercise chronogram must be followed in order to achieve the correct operation of the PC muscle.
Knowing the level of your PE will help with treatment.

Each and every PE Level, regardless of the cause of the problem, result in the inability to control the ejaculatory reflex, which makes it impossible for a man to hold his erection and at what time he feels comfortable ejaculating.
The ejaculatory reflex starts in the urethra and consists of a series of involuntary contractions that force the sperm out of the seminal vesicle and out of the penis. This reflex is controlled by the Pubococcygeus (PC) muscle. The control over the ejaculatory reflex can be completely regained in a simple manner and just as easy as any treatment to recover muscles. A precise exercise chronogram must be followed in order to achieve the correct operation of the PC muscle.
Knowing the level of your PE will help with treatment.

How long do I need to last?
When it comes to premature ejaculation (PE) the big question on a man's lips is "how long do I need to last?"
The main answer is this. 'The duration of sex varies during any given sexual experience'. Sex can last from a minute to many hours. If you have sex in a public place do you really want to be lasting for an hour? A few minutes is more than enough. Public sex is about danger and excitement. So the primary focus is on these aspects and not the duration of the act. If sex is loving and passionate then you may want to last longer. Again there is no strict timescales. The main issue is satisfaction.
If you satisfy yourself and your partner then time is not important. PE occurs when ejaculation occurs before satisfaction is reached.
The alternative question is 'how long does satisfaction take?'
Again this varies. You may require little stimulation or a lot. Your partner may require a little stimulation or a lot. Participants may have different ideas about what constitutes good sex. Some people like public sex, others in the bedroom. Some like latex or fantasy, and others may like sensuality or tenderness. The key to this area is understanding your own needs and desires and that of your partner. When you understand this, or just the requirements of any given sexual situation, then duration of sex drops down the list of importance.
Of course, if you have PE then you might only last a few seconds and the above becomes decreasingly important. The main point I am trying to get across is that 'time' does not have to be the most important factor. I am trying to change your perception on what constitutes sex and sexual satisfaction.
Pre-conceived sexual duration is a huge problem. In other words if a man believes sex should last 20 minutes but lasts only 10 then he will be dis-satisfied, regardless of his partner's satisfaction. This holds true for any time period one gives himself whether you think sex should last 5 minutes or 5 hours!
Ok, so I understand that sexual duration depends on the situation. But what now?
I will continue this subject under different posts for ease of use and for a simple process for you to take in your own time.

What is premature ejaculation?
Premature ejaculation or PE, as it is often referred, is when a man ejaculates before he wishes too. This could be before he is psychologically satisfied or before he feels his partner is sexually satisfied.
PE is largely an issue of control. If a man does not feel right at the time of ejaculation then this lowers the intensity and duration of orgasm. It can lower the overall satisfaction of the sexual experience resulting in reduced self-confidence, anxiety and depression.
Is the length of sex important ?
There are no rules to the length of sexual activity before ejaculation should occur. This depends on the type of sexual activity, be it full intercourse, oral, or masturbation for example. In addition, the 'mood' of the sex is equally important. Sex can be supercharged, heated, 'angry', slow, sensual, erotic, passionate, loving, sweet and the list goes on. In each situation the length of sex or sexual activity varies and can only be determined by the participants. Duration of sex is not the most important issue in itself, but rather the satisfaction achieved during any one sexual episode which can be anything from a few seconds to hours! When ejaculation occurs before satisfaction is achieved then this is considered PE.

Ejaculation generally occurs when the person is sexually satisfied. Hence ejaculation is often referred to as 'climaxing'. When ejaculation occurs before this time then this is considered PE.
Now that I know what PE is, what do I do now?
The next step is to understand the causes of PE and unravel the myths that surround PE and sex. My posts describe the causes of PE and how to correct it. They also tell you the common methods to avoid. There are many out there and chances are you have probably heard and tried one or two of them. But in the majority of cases they only serve to decrease your sexual pleasure and leave you lasting a few seconds longer but totally unsatisfied!
