A lot of men experience Premature Ejaculation. In fact, research has shown that one in every three men between the ages of eighteen and fifty-nine gets to the finish line prematurely at some point in their life. Even so, it is not considered a serious problem unless it happens pretty frequently.
Let's define Premature Ejaculation before getting any further. Premature Ejaculation, or PE, is when a man ejaculates with minimum stimulation and way before the usual amount of time. PE can occur before or after penetration. Typically, men last around 5 ½ minutes after penetration. It is considered PE when it only takes 1 to 1 ½ minutes to ejaculate after penetration.
PE has a massive impact on the lives of those affected. It adds a lot of stress to whatever they and their partners are already going through. The reasons behind PE include, but are not limited to, depression, anxiety, and stress caused by having a new relationship, getting back in the game after a devastating break-up, etc. There might also be some medical reasons behind it, like injuries, surgeries, or a side effect of a medication.

As discussed briefly above, PE is very common among men. So, the first and one of the most important things to know is that you are not alone in this, and there is no reason for you or your partner to feel ashamed or guilty. The symptoms of PE are ejaculations before or very shortly after the penetration occurs. It is to say that it happens way before the usual amount of time needed for ejaculation and, obviously, before the person wishes for it. In the case of PE, minimum sexual stimulation is typically needed for ejaculation.

There are a couple of simple things you can do at home to help longer lasting penetration:
- Getting busy ahead of your date and masturbating in advance, a couple of hours before you want to have sex
- Using the type of condoms that decrease the level of sensation
