PREMATURE ejaculation can be distressing for those who suffer with it and their sexual partners.

But scientists may have discovered a way to cure the ailment through the use of electrical currents.

Premature ejaculation, or erectile dysfunction impacts millions of men worldwide and it is very common.

Common treatment options include behavioural techniques, topical anaesthetics, counselling or medication.

A doctor may order blood tests to check the levels of testosterone, and you may be referred to a urologist or sexual dysfunction specialist.

But this new treatment could be an alternative option and involves electrodes being stuck onto the penis for 30 minutes, for three sessions a week.

Writing in the Asian Journal or Urology experts revealed that one man who underwent the therapy was able to last seven times longer in bed than before.

The 28-year-old man was treated in Lebanon for six months after trying different drugs to help with his condition.

The experts said the man had been in a relationship with his girlfriend for a year and would usually ejaculate after 40 seconds.

After the course of treatment he was able to have intercourse for five minutes before climaxing.

As part of the treatment, a nerve stimulator machine is used, which is then attached to the penis shaft.

One surface electrode is placed on the base of the shaft, with the other 2cm up.

The machine disrupts the nerve response that is needed for muscles to contract – which would result in ejaculation

Over the course of the treatment period the man was exposed to electrical currents .

Before the treatment course he had to measure the time from vaginal penetration to ejaculation – which was 40 seconds.

By the end of the treatment plan this was around three minutes and 54 seconds.

Once he stopped using the device, it continued to improve his sex life.

Fourteen months after the treatment it was taking him five minutes and 14 seconds to reach climax – which the NHS says is the average time.

How can you treat premature ejaculation?

There are a number of things you can do before seeking professional help.

According to the NHS, it can sometimes help to:

  • masturbate an hour or two before having sex
  • use a thick condom to help decrease sensation
  • take a deep breath to briefly shut down the ejaculatory reflex (an automatic reflex of the body during which ejaculation occurs)
  • have sex with your partner on top (to allow them to pull away when you are close to ejaculating)
  • take breaks during sex and think about something boring

Medics did not state that the treatment was painless, but said they can be used ‘without discomfort’.

However, they did explain that it is not yet ‘fully understood’ why these electro currents help with premature ejaculation.

They stated that they believe stimulating the dorsal nerve interferes with the muscles that contract when a man is about to ejaculate.

They added that more studies need to be done to determine whether or not this therapy can be used as a drug-free treatment for those experiencing premature ejaculation.

According to the NHS, a number of psychological and physical factors can cause premature ejaculation.

Porn and Mental Health: The Challenges and Strategies for Coping in the Industry 0 178

Alice Trout

Pornography is a billion-dollar industry that has gained widespread popularity across the globe. However, while it may be a source of entertainment for some, the industry can be challenging for performers’ mental health. The pressure to perform and meet the expectations of producers and viewers can take a toll on performers’ mental wellbeing. In this article, we’ll explore the challenges that the porn industry poses to mental health and strategies for coping with them.

The Challenges

  1. Stigma and Shame

The porn industry is still stigmatized, and performers can face a lot of shame and judgment from society. This can lead to a lot of stress and anxiety, making it difficult for performers to seek help and support when needed.

  1. Pressure to Perform

Performers in the porn industry are expected to meet certain expectations and perform at their best every time. This pressure can be overwhelming and can lead to feelings of inadequacy and low self-esteem.

  1. Isolation and Loneliness

Performing in the porn industry can be a lonely experience, with performers spending long hours on set or on their own, away from friends and family. This can lead to feelings of isolation and loneliness, which can take a toll on mental health.

  1. Trauma and Abuse

The porn industry is not immune to issues such as sexual harassment, assault, and exploitation. Performers may experience these traumatic events, leading to conditions such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and depression.

Strategies for Coping

Seek Professional Help

Performers in the porn industry should seek professional help and support when they need it. There are many therapists and counselors who specialize in working with performers in the industry and can help with issues such as anxiety, depression, and trauma.

Practice Self-Care

Self-care is crucial for performers in the porn industry. Taking breaks when needed, exercising, and practicing mindfulness and meditation can help performers manage stress and promote mental wellbeing.

Surround Yourself with Supportive People

Having a supportive network of friends, family, and colleagues can make a big difference in performers’ mental health. Surrounding yourself with people who understand the challenges of the industry and offer non-judgmental support can help performers cope with the stresses of the job.

Address Trauma and Abuse

Performers who have experienced trauma and abuse in the industry should seek support and address these issues head-on. This may involve therapy, reporting incidents to the authorities, and taking legal action if necessary.

Conclusion

The porn industry poses significant challenges to performers’ mental health, from stigma and shame to pressure to perform and trauma and abuse. However, with the right strategies, performers can cope with these challenges and maintain good mental wellbeing. Seeking professional help, practicing self-care, surrounding yourself with supportive people, and addressing trauma and abuse are just a few strategies that can help performers in the porn industry maintain good mental health.

Navigating Consent and Boundaries in the Porn Industry: A Guide for Newcomers 0 165

Alice Trout

Consent and boundaries are crucial aspects of the porn industry, and it’s essential for newcomers to understand how to navigate these issues. In this article, we’ll provide a guide for those who are new to the industry on how to approach consent and boundaries in a professional and respectful manner.

First and foremost, it’s important to understand that consent is always required in the porn industry. This means that every actor must give explicit and enthusiastic consent to any sexual act that is portrayed on camera. Consent can be given verbally or non-verbally, but it must always be clear and enthusiastic.

In order to ensure that consent is obtained, communication is key. Actors should have open and honest conversations with their scene partners and the director prior to filming. They should discuss what they are comfortable with and what their boundaries are, as well as any specific instructions or concerns.

It’s also important for actors to feel empowered to set their own boundaries and to speak up if they feel uncomfortable or unsafe during filming. This means that if an actor does not want to perform a particular act or if they feel that their boundaries are being pushed, they have the right to stop the scene and speak to the director about their concerns.

It’s also essential for actors to be aware of their own physical and emotional limits. This means that they should take breaks as needed, communicate with their scene partner and director about any discomfort or pain, and engage in self-care practices to ensure that they are physically and emotionally prepared for the demands of the job.

Finally, it’s important for actors to have a support system in place. This can include talking to other actors who have experience in the industry, seeking out counseling or therapy, and having trusted friends and family members who can provide emotional support.

Navigating consent and boundaries in the porn industry can be challenging, but it’s an essential part of maintaining a safe and respectful work environment. By following these guidelines, newcomers to the industry can ensure that they are approaching these issues in a professional and responsible manner.
