Premature ejaculation is a problem many men will have to deal with throughout their sexual life. It is a problem that most people learn to control as they get more sexual experience, but that doesn't give much comfort to those who find that the race is over before it has even started.

Men suffering or experiencing occasions of premature ejaculation often seek medical treatment in the form of medication or alternative remedies to enhance their performance.

Premature ejaculation is a fairly common and treatable condition where a man ejaculates early in the sex act–either before or in the beginning stages of intercourse. By the Mayo Clinic’s estimation, as many as one out of three men may be affected by premature ejaculation at some point in time.
