I know you don’t need a lecture in Biological Chemistry so I won’t give you one. 🙂
So let’s just stick with the basics.
The Serotonin – Dopamine Issue
Serotonin and Dopamine are two naturally occurring hormones directly responsible for ejaculation control. Increased Dopamine levels cause quicker ejaculation times while increased Serotonin levels cause slower and more delayed ejaculation times. An increase in Serotonin levels automatically decreases Dopamine levels and vice versa.
In a nutshell, while making love, you need slightly higher levels of Serotonin in your bloodstream than Dopamine.
But this is a VERY delicate balancing act.
If Dopamine levels drop too low and your Serotonin levels become too high, your sexual urge is affected (erectile dysfunction or anorgasmia, aka inability to ejaculate). In short, you will experience a waning libido.
You wouldn’t want that, would you?
Unfortunately, humans hardly have any direct control on the body’s production of these hormones.
So the trick is to regulate the body’s production of these two hormones and keep it in a balance. But this has to be done in a non-invasive way with the help of natural treatments so as to avoid any unwanted side effects.
The Histamine Issue
Histamine is another naturally occurring chemical in the body that’s directly responsible for the sensitivity of the penis (Lidocaine, the most-common ingredient in numbing creams, is simply an antihistamine!)
The more Histamine present in the bloodstream during sex, the more sensitive the penis becomes. And the more sensitive the penis is, the more likely for ejaculation to occur prematurely.
This means, in order to lessen the sensitivity of the penis thereby making it last longer before ejaculating, Histamine levels should be decreased.
Other treatment programs solve this with Histamine blocking creams which have a harmful long-term side effect on the penis.
Traditional drugs that block Histamine also result in less harmful but counter-productive side effects.
Sleepiness, headaches, nausea (antihistamines) or loss of feeling (numbing creams).
Now, what good would it be to lessen the sensitivity of your soldier so it lasts longer in battle if you end up dozing/sick on the frontlines or find yourself (or both of you!) unable to feel anything at all? 🙂
So the solution is to naturally decrease the “delivery” of Histamine on a cellular level by introducing another naturally occurring substance – Arginine, one of the most common amino acids.
You see, there’s only enough room in the cells for either Arginine or Histamine. So if you increase your Arginine levels, you naturally lessen the circulation of Histamine in the body (much like the relationship between Dopamine and Serotonin).
The Phosphodieterase Type 5 Issue
You probably know that Viagra or sildenafil, is the leading drug that aids men who suffer from Erectile Dysfunction.
The sildenafil in Viagra relaxes the smooth muscles of the blood vessels of the penis thereby increasing blood flow.
This increased blood flow results to a firmer, stiffer and stronger erection.
But what has that got to do with premature ejaculation?
You should understand that ejaculation control is closely interrelated with erectile dysfunction. Many men who cum too soon also have trouble with erectile dysfunction as well.
It’s a complicated internal connection but you can sum it up by saying this – balancing the hormones necessary to control ejaculation will also help strengthen your erection. It’s like a win/win for you and your penis!
Get the picture? 🙂
Now most people think Viagra or Cialis are the only options when it comes to a strong erection…
However in my research, I found certain herbs were just as effective as Viagra and Cialis in promoting increased penile blood flow – and they had fewer side effects!
The Psychological Issue (Sympathetic/Parasympathetic Activity)
Bodily functions operating below the level of consciousness such as heart rate, digestion, respiration, salivation and sexual arousal are governed by the Autonomic Nervous System.
This is further divided into 2 subsystems: the Sympathetic Nervous System and the Parasympathetic Nervous System.
This is where most remedies and treatment programs screw things up.
Without getting too technical, here’s how this affects ejaculation.
You probably know that the same organs we use for reproduction is also used in urinary excretion. So most of the muscular and nervous controls between these 2 functions operate generally the same.
The Parasympathetic Nervous System is responsible for “holding matters together” in this area of the body, which includes storing urine and in effect, semen.
The Sympathetic Nervous System , on the other hand is in charge of “letting things go”, in short, urinating and ejaculation.
To put things simply, whichever nervous system is stronger gets its way. The key is to balance them – too strong of a Sympathetic Nervous System results in premature ejaculation, while too strong of a Parasympathetic Nervous System results in erectile dysfunction and/or anorgasmia.
Most ejaculation control products or programs focus solely on your Parasympathetic Nervous System, but if you actually do that, you’ll find your “little man” losing strength real quick.
Understanding how these mechanics work gives you control over when you use each Nervous System, in effect letting you control when your body holds your semen and when it decides to ejaculate.
Until now…
