\"premature<\/a>Back when I was younger, and I couldn’t last long during sex to save my life, I would have done anything to overcome premature ejaculation.<\/p>\n

I used to drink alcohol, masturbate\u00a0before sex, think appalling thoughts during sex to “turn myself off” (taking all the fun out of it)… but no matter what I tried, I\u00a0was never\u00a0able to last long enough to get a woman off, even on my “best” days.<\/p>\n

So I know what a frustrating\u00a0problem PE can be.<\/p>\n

But the good news is, there are a number of options out there now that work to delay ejaculation. \u00a0And this includes\u00a0acupuncture.<\/p>\n

Needles to Make You Last Longer During Sex?<\/h2>\n

I’m a believer in all sorts of medicine… East, West, I think they have their merits. I believe where Western medicine is lacking, Eastern is strong, and vice versa.<\/p>\n

Acupuncture uses needles to open up the flow of energy in the body. While not exactly sure of the mechanism, a change of energy flow brought about by the needles helps men to last longer during sex, and studies have shown this.<\/p>\n

Studies on Acupuncture For Premature Ejaculation Vs. Meds for PE\u2014\u00b1<\/h2>\n

The interesting thing is the different findings of studies on acupuncture vs. medication for overcoming PE, one in China, and one in Turkey.<\/p>\n

Guess which one found Acupuncture to be better than medication, and vice versa?<\/p>\n

The Chinese study<\/a> found that acupuncture was more effective for delaying ejaculation than medication, but they used a medication called “Sailete”… which I’ve never heard of, and which a Google search yields zero results… I feel this study was rigged from the beginning for the “East” to win.. SSRI’s and only another couple of classes of psychiatric meds have been shown to have ejaculation delaying qualities… and “Sailete”, whatever that may be, is not one of these.<\/p>\n

This is not to say that acupuncture doesn’t work for overcoming premature ejaculation though….<\/p>\n

The Turkish study<\/a> found that acupuncture did indeed have significant ejaculation delaying effects, compared to the control group which\u00a0received no kinds of treatment, but not as strong as the effects of Paroxetine (marketed as Paxil, an SSRI). \u00a0To the defense of the acupuncture, they only treated these men twice a week with the acupuncture… and even with that, the effects were quite impressive.<\/p>\n

Which Acupuncture Points Are Used To Treat Premature Ejaculation?<\/h2>\n
