Fortunately, there are a number of ways to help reduce your risk – here are three to focus on.
Premature ejaculation wipes
In a study published in The Journal of Urology, topical benzocaine wipes for the management of premature ejaculation were further investigated.
Men aged 18-years were enrolled in the research all were heterosexual in a monogamous relationship and who reported suffering with premature ejaculation.
The men were put into two groups with one using benzocaine wipes and the others using a placebo.
After two months, men in the treatment group had significant improvement in intravaginal ejaculatory latency time.
“Compared to placebo, men in the treatment group reported greater improvement in distress relating to intercourse, control of ejaculation, and satisfaction with sexual intercourse over the study period,” noted the study.

Foods said to help reduce premature ejaculation included:

Counselling
Talking to a professional about any underlying issues related to premature ejaculation may help too.

It added: "But don't let that keep you from talking to your provider.
"Premature ejaculation is common and treatable."
