Sex is a wonderful thing. It gives pleasure to you and your partner. Let’s face it, you want to deliver a performance so good that your partner will be begging for more. One of the keys to a stellar bedroom performance is control. You want to be able to control when to ejaculate. This ensures that your partner is completely satisfied. Control is also crucial in masturbation. Even though you are by yourself, you want to prolong the experience. The key to controlling ejaculation lies in your pelvic floor muscles. Let’s learn more about pelvic floor muscles and how they can help improve your bedroom experience.
Pelvic floor muscles and ejaculation
What exactly is the connection between ejaculation, masturbation, and pelvic floor muscles? The pelvic floor muscles are a group of muscles and connective tissues. They span the bottom of the pelvis. The pelvic floor muscles are essential to sexual functions. They help men maintain erections and control ejaculation. Weak pelvic floor muscles can be problematic. They can lead to reduced sensations. Reduced sensations can lead to either difficulty maintaining erections or the inability to control ejaculation.
Improving the strength of the pelvic floor muscles can lead to improved sexual function. Strong pelvic floor muscles can also result in increased ejaculation control and overall sexual satisfaction. To help keep your pelvic floor muscles in excellent condition, here are some exercises you can try:
Kegel exercises
Kegel exercises are also called pelvic floor muscle training. These exercises can help you control your ejaculatory urges. They can also help you maintain erections. In addition, these exercises have other health benefits such as helping improve your bladder control if you are suffering from urinary incontinence.
The first step to successfully performing Kegel exercises is locating your pelvic floor muscles. Do this by pretending to avoid passing gas. The muscles that you engage will be your pelvic floor muscles. Another way is by urinating and trying to stop your urine stream. You will feel your pelvic floor muscles contract.
Now that you have identified your pelvic floor muscles, it’s time to teach you how to do Kegel exercises. You can do these exercises standing up or lying on your back. Tighten your pelvic floor muscles and hold the position for between three to five seconds. Slowly release the pelvic floor muscles and relax for around five seconds. Repeat this cycle around 10 to 20 times. Do these exercises around 3 to 4 times a day for the best results.
Diaphragmatic Breathing
This is a type of exercise that’s also called belly breathing. It involves engaging the diaphragm and the pelvic floor muscles in a coordinated way. You can do this exercise while sitting or lying down. Place one hand on your chest and the other on your abdomen. Inhale slowly through your nose. Allow your abdomen to rise while keeping your chest still. Combine your inhalations with gentle pelvic floor muscle contractions. Exhale slowly through your nose while allowing your abdomen to slowly fall back down.
Bridge pose
This is an exercise that targets the muscles of your core, glutes, and pelvic floor. Lie on your back with your knees bent. Keep your feet hip-width apart. Place your arms at your side with your palms facing down. Inhale and lift your hips upward. Make sure that you engage your pelvic floor muscles while inhaling. Hold the pose for around 10 to 15 seconds while keeping a steady breath. Slowly lower your hips back to the floor. Repeat the cycle 10 to 15 times.
Treating male sexual dysfunction, the right way
While strengthening the pelvic floor muscles can help improve control over ejaculatory urges, there are other ways of treating sexual health dysfunctions, such as premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction.
One way is by combining masturbation with the stop-start method to improve ejaculatory control. When you feel yourself nearing ejaculation while masturbating, stop sexual stimulation. You can resume masturbating when you feel your urge to ejaculate ebb. This is the same method you can use to delay ejaculation while having sexual intercourse.
However, if you are experiencing bedroom issues like premature ejaculation or erectile dysfunction, custom treatment is your best option. Custom treatment plans offer tailored solutions that address your unique needs and concerns. Tailored strategies often lead to better outcomes, as they focus on the root causes of PE rather than one-size-fits-all solutions.
