Early Release and Reproductive Health - Help for a Leaky Manhood

Early release can be a sticky problem, so to speak. It almost never has a single, obvious cause; and men who are affected may actually make matters worse by obsessing over the issue. Fortunately, understanding the potential causes and knowing how and when to get help can pave the way for better reproductive health, both for the man who is affected and for his partner. To start with, the facts about early release are discussed here.

What is early release, anyway?

Loosely defined, this problem occurs whenever release takes place before both partners are ready. From a medical standpoint, doctors tend to describe it as release that takes place in under a minute of penetration. While the occasional slip may be nothing at all to worry about, when it happens on a consistent basis, it can be a matter of concern; men should not be embarrassed to address the problem with their doctor.

What causes men to release before they are ready?

There is no single underlying cause for this issue, and for most men, it can be related to a combination of factors, both psychological and physical. Some of the more common of these are as follows:

1. A past history of trying to release quickly to avoid getting “caught in the act.”
2. Guilt or anxiety related to the act of intimacy; or performance anxiety.
3. Relationship problems.
4. Biological issues, including hormone levels, thyroid problems, and heredity.
5. Physiological issues such as nerve damage or withdrawal from certain medications.

What types of treatment are available?

Treating early release depends mainly on the primary cause, and men and their partners should work with a medical professional to decide on the best form of treatment – usually a combination of self-help practices, therapy and possibly medications. Treatments may include:

• Self-pleasuring  an hour or two before intimacy;
• The “squeeze” technique, where the man withdraws from his partner when he feels that release is imminent and squeezes the end of the male organ;
• Counseling, either on an individual basis or, especially in the case of relationship issues, with both partners;
• Antidepressants (certain SSRIs used for treating depression and anxiety are known to help delay release. However, these medications can also lower male drive levels, so they should be considered after other options;
• Topical anesthetic creams. Prescription or over-the-counter creams can sometimes provide a numbing effect, slowing down the process. However, as some of these are really not made for the delicate skin of the male organ, caution – as well as medical supervision – is advised.

A final word: maintaining male organ condition

As a man works to resolve his issues with early release, some extra attention to male organ care is warranted. Protecting the male tissue from the ravages of manual stimulation or prolonged coupling sessions may require a few extra steps in the daily personal care regimen.

To start with, it is important to make sure that the member is clean and fresh, both before and after. A daily shower can take care of this issue, and it is also a good idea to rinse away any accumulated body fluids or lubes, as leaving these behind can lead to irritation and sensitive skin reactions.

The right personal care products should be a consideration here. Soaps, shampoos and body washes are designed to clean away dirt and oils, so they can have a tendency to strip away the skin’s natural oils in the process, leaving behind dry, itchy, rough-looking skin. Using a hypoallergenic cleanser, olive oil soap or even baby washes can help to eliminate this problem.

After bathing, applying a male organ nutrient creme (health professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil) is a must to lock in moisture, condition the skin, and leave the male organ feeling and looking smooth, supple and appealing.
