How to Make Sex Last Longer
Reaching climax faster than your partner is
common, so don’t get down on yourself. Fortunately, most people who climax
quickly can learn how to last longer. Exercises and lifestyle changes can help
improve control, and there are lots of climax-delaying techniques you could try
during sex. Climax control products and medications could also be worth a shot.
If your partner finishes too soon, try to approach the topic as a team. Avoid
placing blame, and let them know that you want to work together to build
physical and emotional intimacy.
Making
Lifestyle Changes
Relax and encourage yourself. Anxiety and
self-doubt are major mood killers, so try to be optimistic. Approaching sex
with confidence, self respect, and a positive attitude can make all the
difference for both you and your partner.
· Instead of
dwelling on negative thoughts about your performance, think to yourself, “Sam,
finishing fast is common and you shouldn’t get down on yourself. You can deal
with this!”
· Referring to
yourself by name can be more effective when practicing positive self-talk.
Work on lasting longer during masturbation. Trying to
reach climax as quickly as possible during masturbation can train your body to
expect a quick finish. Masturbating a few times a week and a couple
hours before sex can help delay climax, especially if you practice lasting
longer when you masturbate.
Start doing pelvic floor exercises. Exercising
the muscles that control ejaculation can help you last longer. To identify
these muscles, stop urination midstream and tighten the muscles that prevent
passing gas. To exercise them, tighten them for 3 seconds, relax for 3 seconds,
then repeat 5 to 10 times.
· It might be
easier at first to exercise while lying down or seated, but try to do them
standing, too. As you strengthen the muscles, aim for 3 sets of 10 repetitions
per day.
· Try to only
tighten those muscles that help control urination and passing gas. Don’t just
flex your buttocks or thighs.
· Breathe normally
as you exercise, and avoid holding your breath.
Cut down on alcohol other drugs. Alcohol and
other substances can cause premature ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, and
other performance issues. Avoid drugs and alcohol before sex and try to cut
down your overall use.
Find a regular sexual partner if possible. If you
typically date around, consider settling down with someone. Being intimate with
one person can help you become more comfortable and confident during sex. When
you’re comfortable with someone, it’s easier to have an open conversation about
improving your sex life.
