&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Every guy wants to perform well between the sheets&amp;mdash;and the&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;squeeze technique&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;just might help you to do just that if you&amp;rsquo;re looking to last longer in bed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;This is one of many exercises that sex therapists and other sex experts often recommend to help with &lt;span style=&quot;color: #3366ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a style=&quot;color: #3366ff;&quot; title=&quot;premature ejaculation (PE)&quot; href=&quot;../../../prematureejaculation&quot;&gt;premature ejaculation (PE)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. Some men find that it does wonders but, as with every sexual performance exercise, it doesn&amp;rsquo;t work for everyone.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;The squeeze technique is typically one of the first&amp;nbsp;premature ejaculation exercises&amp;nbsp;that men try because it is easy to learn, it&amp;rsquo;s free, and it does not require any special equipment.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;However, timing is everything and a high level of self-control is a must in order for it to be mastered.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What Is The Squeeze Technique?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;health-center-sub-heading&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;In the 1970s, the pioneers of the modern sex therapy movement,&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://kinseyinstitute.org/collections/archival/masters-and-johnson.php&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer&quot;&gt;William Masters and Virgina Johnson&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;were changing the way Americans thought about and experienced sex.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;health-center-sub-heading&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-health.org/Files/CUM/Masters-Johnson-sex-education.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Masters-Johnson-sex-education.jpg (22 KB)&quot; width=&quot;609&quot; height=&quot;342&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Masters and Johnson were among the first American researchers to focus their academic work on helping people and couples to solve sexual problems and to study the physiology of sexual response. They released multiple scientific papers and published several popular mass-market books on the subject. While much of their work was theoretical, it also had a lot of practical applications.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;One of their most widely used and enduring contributions to sex therapy was the development and popularization of an effective and free way of helping men control premature ejaculation.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;In&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.amazon.com/Human-Sexual-Inadequacy-William-Masters/dp/4871877019/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=human+sexual+inadequacy&amp;amp;qid=1580135009&amp;amp;sr=8-1&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer&quot;&gt;Human Sexual Inadequacy (published in 1970)&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Masters and Johnson called their new method &amp;lsquo;&lt;strong&gt;The Squeeze Technique&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;rsquo;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;You may have heard people refer to this technique by several other names, such as &#39;the squeeze method&amp;rsquo;, &#39;the stop and squeeze&amp;rsquo;, or &#39;the pause squeeze technique,&amp;rsquo; but they all refer to the same thing.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a id=&quot;basics&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;More than a half century later, many guys around the world continue to use the squeeze technique in order to last longer in bed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How Does The Squeeze Technique Work&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;The squeeze technique for premature ejaculation works by manually preventing ejaculate from exiting the body. By applying pressure to the penis. The idea is pretty straightforward, but to fully understand how and why it works, we need a quick penis anatomy lesson.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-health.org/Files/CUM/how-to-squeeze-technique_63aaf491-ed26-4236-a6e4-511d65ece726.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;how-to-squeeze-technique_63aaf491-ed26-4236-a6e4-511d65ece726.jpg (18 KB)&quot; width=&quot;600&quot; height=&quot;600&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Look at the image above and find where the head of the penis meets the shaft. This area is called the frenulum.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;This is what you need to target when using this technique.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Now, take a look at the internal diagram below. Notice the location of the urethra. The urethra is the tube that carries ejaculate out of the body.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-health.org/Files/CUM/what-is-squeeze-technique.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;what-is-squeeze-technique.jpg (23 KB)&quot; width=&quot;600&quot; height=&quot;600&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;a id=&quot;howto&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;By temporarily stopping sex and squeezing the penis at just the right time and in the correct place, it is possible to close off the urethra just enough to prevent ejaculation and extend intercourse.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How To Do The Squeeze Technique&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;Using The Squeeze Method On Your Own&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Start by gently stimulating yourself until you become erect. If you have severe PE, you may need to take frequent breaks whenever you feel the urge to climax.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Notice the slightly raised area that runs down the center of the penile shaft&amp;mdash;the frenulum. Just below the head, place your forefinger on the frenulum and place your thumb on the other side of the penis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Apply pressure to your frenulum with your thumb and forefinger.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Give yourself a few light squeezes for practice. You&amp;rsquo;ll eventually need to figure out how hard to squeeze to stop the flow of ejaculate, but remember to stop immediately if you feel pain at any time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Now give it a go for real. Masturbate normally until you start to feel the urge to ejaculate.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Stop and get your hand in the correct position and squeeze the penis for about five seconds or until your urge to cum goes away.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Pause for around 30 seconds and then resume masturbation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Repeat the process four or five times&amp;mdash;bring yourself to the edge, squeeze, pause, and resume&amp;mdash;before allowing yourself to finally orgasm.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Don&#39;t be disappointed if you are unable to control your orgasm entirely on the first few tries. It will probably take multiple sessions to perfect the technique.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;Using The Squeeze Method With A Partner&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;Instructions To Do The Squeeze Technique With A Partner&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Show your lover where to place their fingers. Allow your partner to find a comfortable hand position. Note that they may grasp the frenulum differently than you would during masturbation, and that&amp;rsquo;s okay (for example, they will probably place the thumb on the frenulum and the forefinger behind it).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Give your partner a demonstration of how much pressure they should apply based on what you learned during your practice sessions.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Let your partner practice holding their hands in the correct position and applying the right amount of pressure.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Create a signal, perhaps a gesture or word, which you will use to indicate that you are about to climax and you are ready for them to use the technique.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;After you have these steps down, start your regular sexual routine. As you near the point of no return, signal your lover.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Stop and allow your partner to use the technique. After the urge goes away, pause for 30 seconds before resuming stimulation&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;a id=&quot;results&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Repeat the process 4 to 5 times before allowing yourself to orgasm. Be conscious of the enjoyment level of your partner, and make sure they are satisfied as well.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Does The Squeeze Technique Really Work?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;The simple answer is, yes, it usually does.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;For example, Masters and Johnson reported that&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a title=&quot;Squeeze Technique Study&quot; href=&quot;https://www.medscape.com/answers/435884-30692/how-effective-is-the-squeeze-pause-technique-in-the-treatment-of-premature-ejaculation&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer&quot;&gt;this method treated greater than 85 percent of patients successfully&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;within three months. In light of these numbers, it would appear that this is a viable way to help many men treat premature ejaculation.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a id=&quot;alternatives&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;If this method is not working for you,&lt;/span&gt; however, all is not lost. There are several other ways to control PE that might work instead.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Alternative Options For The Squeeze Technique&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;There are lots of different methods for treating PE, ranging from topical desensitizing sprays to condoms and exercise.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;If you are looking for more&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a title=&quot;Promescent Ultimate Free Guide To Lasting Longer in Bed&quot; href=&quot;https://www.promescent.com/pages/last-longer-in-bed&quot;&gt;tips to last longer in bed&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt; you might want to try it out one or more of these alternatives:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;Condoms&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Using acondom can help decrease the sensitivity&amp;nbsp;of the penis, thus increasing a man&amp;rsquo;s chances of lasting longer; however, it may take a bit of experimentation to get this to work well for you.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;If you are already wearing a condom but it&amp;rsquo;s not helping with PE, you may want to try one that&#39;s thicker. Thicker condoms are typically sold as &quot;extra safe&quot; or &quot;extra strength.&quot; This wording is basically saying that the condom is thicker than normal, which is likely to decrease sensation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Still not doing the trick? You can also try condoms with pre-applied numbing gel on the inside.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;However, be aware that some people who use condoms with numbing gel report too much of a general numbing sensation. Also, these condoms need to be applied very carefully to ensure the numbing agent doesn&amp;rsquo;t affect your partner.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;Use Delays Sprays, Gels, Or Creams&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Instead of depending on a numbing condom that affects the entire penis, you can opt to pinpoint the most sensitive areas with&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #3366ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;a style=&quot;color: #3366ff;&quot; title=&quot;numb-spray-lidocaine&quot; href=&quot;../../../premature-ejaculation-numb-spray-lidocaine&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;delay spray&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;or &lt;span style=&quot;color: #3366ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a style=&quot;color: #3366ff;&quot; href=&quot;../../../premature-ejaculation-numb-cream-emla&quot;&gt;delay cream.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;The advantage of this over other methods is that delay sprays are easy to apply when and where you want, and you can decide how much to use. It is a very personalized treatment that has been clinically shown to work on-demand and when you need it most.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;When using&amp;nbsp;delay spray, transference to the partner is minimal and condoms aren&amp;rsquo;t needed if you and your partner prefer not to use them or don&amp;rsquo;t require them for contraceptive purposes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;The Start-Stop Method&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Some guys don&#39;t feel comfortable with the squeeze technique approach to control ejaculation.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;For example, they may find that the pressure is a little painful or that the hand position is awkward. If so, you may prefer to use&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a title=&quot;What is Edging for Men?&quot; href=&quot;https://www.promescent.com/blogs/learn/edging-technique-premature-ejaculation&quot;&gt;the stop-start method&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;instead. Many people like to call this method &amp;lsquo;edging&amp;rsquo;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;Kegel Exercises&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Many people only think of Kegel exercises as something that women do to tone and strengthen their pelvic floor following childbirth.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;However,&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a title=&quot;Randomised controlled trial of pelvic floor muscle exercises and manometric biofeedback for erectile dysfunction&quot; href=&quot;https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1324914/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer&quot;&gt;research shows that&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;they are also a great way for men who experience premature ejaculation issues to gain greater control of their orgasms. Unlike the squeeze technique or the stop-start method, Kegel exercises are not performed during sexual activity.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Performing Kegel exercises are easy, and it only takes a few minutes per day.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;First, you need to learn which muscles to focus your attention on. You can find these muscles by trying to stop urinating midstream.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;a id=&quot;conclusion&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Once you identify the muscles, one way to do a simple Kegel exercise is to tighten and hold those muscles for a five-second count. Do this ten times in a row, two to three times per day, and you are well on your way to improving your sex life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;This overview just covers the basics of Kegel exercises.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conclusion&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;When it comes to treating premature ejaculation, there are a lot of different options to consider.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;The squeeze technique is a relatively quick and easy way to gain more ejaculatory control, but it may not be the right solution for you. While it works just fine for some, others may find the technique to be uncomfortable or awkward.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Trying the technique while masturbating and then introducing it to your partner is likely to be the best approach. It will make the process more comfortable and you&amp;rsquo;ll know just how much pressure to tell your partner to apply to your penis to ensure it works. Just remember that practice makes perfect.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;And if it doesn&amp;rsquo;t work?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;The good news is that there are plenty of other treatment options available, from over-the-counter products like Promescent to condoms to different exercises.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Check out some of the resources below to discover more about other techniques that could potentially help you improve your bedroom performance.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
