I cum really fast when I'm having sex. What can I do?

It's really normal for young guys to orgasm and ejaculate (cum) quickly. The average is only two minutes. True premature ejaculation is when you ejaculate within a few seconds. (Orgasm and ejaculation usually happen at the same time, but not always.)

There are a few things you can do to slow things down:

  • Wear a condom from start to finish. This will reduce your sensitivity. Remember to use latex, since that also protects you and your partner from sexual transmitted diseases. Some condoms have a desensitization cream (aka, "climax control lubricant") that may be helpful.
  • Masturbate before having sex. It usually takes longer the second time for a guy to reach orgasm.
  • Take a break. When you feel yourself getting close to orgasm, stop and give your body time to relax. Focus on your partner in another way.
  • Try the "squeeze technique." Try gently squeezing the base or head of the penisbefore you get too close to orgasm. You can also gently pull the testicles lower when they start to hug the body. If this hurts your penis or testicles, then stop and try other methods instead.

This all takes time and practice, so be patient!

This is actually very common, so don't be worried. Ask
yourself: does it take me that long to ejaculate (cum) when
I masturbate? If the answer is yes, then that may just be
the way your body works. If the answer is no, then you may
want to try different sexual positions that will feel
different. To try to keep your partner from getting
frustrated, make sure you are pleasuring them as well during
this time. If you start feeling pressure to cum quicker, it
may only make the situation worse.

you can masturbate at any age. you don't have to be over 18.
most men start around 14. you may be told that its wrong to
masturbate, but it all depends on your beliefs.

Ejaculating when masturbating

Posted by: Ineed101 on May 12th, 2007 12:06am

If you cum fast when you are masturbating, does that mean
that you will also cum fast when you are having sex? &
sometimes after I cum,my testicles start hurting... Is that
normal? & are there any exercises i can do to make me not
ejaculate as quick?

we wrote this FAQ because it is a frequently asked question
from both girls and guys. we think it is important that
couples talk about what is important to them BOTH, whether
that's intimacy and/or orgasm and/or abstinence. each person
in a couple will have their own needs and desires. thanks
for asking!
