Myth 1 # Premature ejaculation must be related to some underlying disease

Premature ejaculation is not an illness, nor is it a disease nor does it indicate the presence of any underlying disease, but it definitely exists in the form of clinical diagnosis. Mostly it is psychological issues which cause premature ejaculation and not physical ones.

Myth 2 # I can last longer if I stop fantasizing about sexy stuff

Although many people will advice this technique of distraction, in reality it works only for some people and for others it simply doesn’t work. In short, you cannot treat this method as a solution.  Rather it will decrease your sensation of feeling the sexual pleasure.  If you want to control your premature ejaculation, you have to concentrate on your body and learn to control your urge, instead of just diverting yourself. With a little bit of practice, you will be able to do it and enjoy full physical satisfaction.

Myth 3 # some are born with it, some aren’t

The ability to control premature ejaculation isn’t an innate quality; those who are able to do it have previous masturbatory experiences or may have practiced self control with the help of previous bed partners.  You have to understand that ejaculation is just like urination and you should practice controlling premature ejaculation just the way you control your urge to urinate.

Myth 4 # you will be called a premature ejaculator when you cum in a few minutes

This is not wholly true. In many medical definitions there is a specific time limit and if you ejaculate within that you will be termed a premature ejaculator but to diagnose this problem, there are many other symptoms to be taken into account. Many definitions of premature ejaculation do not include time limits.

Myth 5 # this sexual dysfunction has no solution

On the contrary, with a little bit of practice, majority of the men learn to control their premature ejaculation on their own and there is just no need of any kind of medical intervention or drugs. You can read up the internet or take advice from other men to learn these techniques.

Myth 6 # I can treat premature ejaculation with pills

You should take recourse to behavioral methods to control this sexual dysfunction. You cannot treat premature ejaculation with pills as there are no FDA approved pills as such. But on the internet you will find several drugs to treat premature ejaculation, but you don’t need to waste money on them.
