Can The Way You Masturbate, or Excessive Masturbation, Cause Premature Ejaculation ?

There’s no reported link between excessive masturbation and premature ejaculation. In fact, the more time has passed since your last orgasm, the more difficult it will be to control your ejaculation. So, a high masturbation frequency could actually help you last longer. However, the way you masturbate could play a role in premature ejaculation evolution. If you always masturbate quickly, you can develop a quick ejaculation reflex and lose some ejaculation control. It’s unclear if lousy masturbation alone could cause premature ejaculation, but it’s generally accepted that it could, at least, worsen a tendency to premature ejaculation.

Masturbation Frequency and Premature Ejaculation

As we mentioned, the number of time you masturbate in a week doesn’t influence the time you last in bed. The only thing that matters, it’s the time since your last ejaculation. Because of a phenomenon known as the refractory period, if you had an orgasm recently, you will be less sensitive to arousal. And, the less sensitive you are, the longer you’ll last. So, it’s not a bad thing to masturbate often if you suffer from premature ejaculation.

Premature Ejaculation Masturbation Bad Habits

However, the way you masturbate can influence your ejaculation control. If you always do it quickly, your body will learn to ejaculate immediately. As soon as you feel aroused, you will ejaculate. The key to last longer in bed is to learn how to modulate your arousal level, so you don’t come quickly. To achieve this with a partner, you first need to master it alone during masturbation. That’s why it’s important to take your time when you masturbate. You need to be able to slow down your arousal level before reaching your climax point.

Sexual Re-education

If you do not feel this level of control when you masturbate, you can always follow a sexual re-education. The goal of this re-education will be to teach you how to control your arousal response. It consists of masturbation exercises that you can first do alone, followed by couple exercises for those you are in a relationship. The sexual re-education, since it’s a free home remedy to premature ejaculation, is often the first treatment you should try to improve your ejaculation control.

If you’re ready to invest a bit, some online training program can also help you with masturbation exercises that will make you last longer. You can read here our review for the Between Us Clinic PE Program.
