Apparently, jumping into the sack with the missus after a big meal isn’t a very good idea, isn’t it?

It turned out, it all has to do with an old wives’ tale your mother warned you about; physical activity after eating would result in cramps and other horrors.

Yet, the old wives’ tales and other myths are often hearsay at best.

Unverified and perpetuated via word of mouth as truth, we learn to accept these myths at face value mostly because we don’t know any better. In reality, for this particular myth, we’ve found that mothers may not always know best.

Hence, when it comes to validating myths surrounding a subject as taboo as male sexual health, asking your mother may not be the smartest thing to do.

Although, for men who do not choose a medical option, there are various ways on how to overcome premature ejaculation using natural methods.

On the other hand, it is also a smart move to consult a medical professional as the first step of tackling such condition to be diagnosed with regards to other underlying causes that trigger the condition.

Unfortunately, men with lifelong premature ejaculation, studies conducted in Europe and the U.S. do not show the prevalence of premature ejaculation lessening as the person ages.

It has been shown that men with acquired premature ejaculation condition tend to improve when using behavioral technique known as Start-Stop method also known as “EDGING“.

These are two different conditions, and medically, require different treatments.

A recent study conducted by Menarini Asia-Pacific revealed that premature ejaculation is a very common sexual dysfunction that affects 1 of 3 men.

Also, it is worth noting that some men with erectile dysfunction may also be suffering from premature ejaculation. Therefore, both conditions have the possibility to co-exist.
