Masturbation & Premature Ejaculation...

Q. I’m a 20 year old male that suffers from Premature Ejaculation. I have masturbated a lot as a teenager. How many days in a week should I masturbate and how many days should I do the ‘Start and Stop Technique’?


A. Persevere; this is something that you should be able to overcome, while having some fun in the meantime! If you are trying the Stop and Start Technique go for 15 minutes a time, 3 to 4 times a week.

The best overall advice I can give you here is to check out our Male Masturbation Guide. Below our article, there is a great response (#46) from a member called Doctor Jack, titled Wire Your Brain for Marathon Masturbation. He discusses ideas such as using your non-dominate hand while masturbating, doing something relaxing such as writing or doodling while performing the job, limiting porn, and a modification of the Stop-and-Go technique that you've mentioned, called ‘Beyond Edging’.

Hang in there, time and practice will get you there!
