In most young men this is a common problem- problem od pre-ejaculation, where neither he nor his spouse is satisfied. It becomes too frustrating for some people. But certain things can help. Communication between partners about expectations with intercourse can help to determine whether or not extending the time to ejaculation is necessary. Also, making a conscious effort to attempt to increase the amount of time a man can engage in sex prior to ejaculating may help. Consider the following: • Practice extending the time to ejaculation while masturbating/fantasizing. • Use a condom in the hopes of reducing penis hypersensitivity. • Try topical anesthetic gel or cream to reduce penis sensitivity. Avoid gels or creams that contain oil or lanolin as they can weaken or destroy the latex in condoms. • Experiment to find positions or activities which keep him in a pre-ejaculatory phase.

Premature ejaculation (PE), also known as rapid ejaculation, premature climax, early ejaculation, or by the Latin term ejaculatio praecox, is the most common sexual problem in men, affecting 25%-40% of men. It is characterized by a lack of voluntary control over ejaculation. Masters and Johnson stated that a man suffers from premature ejaculation if he ejaculates before his partner achieves orgasm in more than fifty percent of his sexual encounters. Other sex researchers have defined premature ejaculation as occurring if the man ejaculates within two minutes or less of penetration; however, a survey by Alfred Kinsey in the 1950s demonstrated that three quarters of men ejaculate within two minutes of penetration in over half of their sexual encounters. Today, most sex therapists understand premature ejaculation as occurring when a lack of ejaculatory control interferes with sexual or emotional well-being in one or both partners. Most men experience premature ejaculation at least once in their lives. Often adolescents and young men experience "premature" ejaculation during their first sexual encounters, but eventually learn ejaculatory control. Because there is great variability in both how long it takes men to ejaculate and how long both partners want sex to last, researchers have begun to form a quantitative definition of premature ejaculation. Current evidence supports an average intravaginal ejaculation latency time (IELT) of six and a half minutes in 18-30 year olds.[1][2] If the disorder is defined as an IELT percentile below 2.5, then premature ejaculation could be suggested by an IELT of less than about one and a half minutes.[3] Nevertheless, it is well accepted that men with IELTs below 1.5 minutes could be "happy" with their performance and do not report a lack of control and therefore do not suffer from PE. On the other hand, a man with 2 minutes IELT could present with perception of poor control over his ejaculation, distressed about his condition, has interpersonal difficulties and therefore be diagnosed with PE.
