7 ways to make sex last longer

Every man is different and sex duration also differs from couple to couple. Doctors consider sex that lasts more than two minutes to be the norm. But that will not be enough for women: in order to get aroused and reach orgasm, ladies need at least 10 minutes. Scientists calculated the ideal duration of sex in an experiment where 432 couples took part. 12 minutes, this is the time during which both partners are able to have an orgasm and experience the true pleasure of sexual intercourse.

What to do so that you do not "give up" after the first couple of minutes? Here are 7 ways to help control your erection and make sex last much longer:

1. Strengthen your Kegel muscle

The love muscle is not activated in everyday life (unless you intentionally stop urinating), but it performs an important function during sex: it is responsible for ejaculation. Therefore, a strong Kegel muscle is able to prolong sexual intercourse. For its strengthening, it is necessary to squeeze and relax the pelvic floor muscles. And you need to make that your everyday habit. When having sex you will feel that you are pretty close to the final — remember Kegel's gymnastics. Strongly tighten the muscle and try to keep it this way for up to 30 seconds. That will help to suppress the feeling that you are about to finish and give you a chance to go on.

2. Use lubricants

Intimate gels and lubricants reduce sensitivity, therefore, prolong sexual intercourse. By the way, condoms do exactly the same thing. So if you have not used them yet, you definitely should start. In addition, having a condom on will protect you from contracting an STD.

3. Masturbate

During Masturbation, try to keep going for at least 15 minutes. That will help you learn to control your ejaculation. Dr. Brain recommends that you keep track of the time when you are masturbating, so that each time you get an orgasm a minute later. If you are going on a date that is definitely meant to end with being intimate but you have not had sex for a long time, it is better to masturbate beforehand. That will help you not finish the looked-for sexual act too quickly.

4. Choose the right positions

To last longer in bed, you need to choose positions in which there is less stimulation on the penis. Stimulation depends on the size of the penis head, as well as on the shape and tone of the woman's vagina, so the poses for each man will be individual. You need to choose a position in which the lower back, thighs and buttocks will be as relaxed as possible. Otherwise, blood will accumulate in the groin area, bringing the orgasm closer. The abs muscles and muscles of the pelvic area should also not be tightened during sex. If the change of position does not help, and you are about to reach an orgasm, try to pull the penis out and take a short break (10-20 seconds).

5. Distract yourself

Proven and really working method. Think about something else, look at the objects that surround you and don't look at your partner for some time.

6. Use special techniques

• Stop-start (as soon as there are sensations of orgasm, you need to stop for a while and resume sexual intercourse after these sensations pass).
• Deep breathing with the diaphragm (when there is a feeling of upcoming orgasm, you need to take several slow and deep breaths and exhalations with your stomach).
• Slow penetration (the point is that one movement in and out should last more than three seconds. Then you can speed up. But if you feel an upcoming orgasm again, slow down and count to three.)

7. Ask your partner for help

If you close to having an orgasm but you want the pleasure for yourself and your loved one to last longer, ask them to do the following:

• Squeeze the penis between the head and its body (that will reduce blood flow)
• Scratch you or bite you slightly (the pain will distract you, while your partner will get even more aroused)

And the best way is to relax and enjoy the process. And do not get hung up on making sexual intercourse last longer. After all, you can have sex for a second time. And you can make your other half come to orgasm in any other way.
