Hey, I'm a 14-year-old guy and I've been going through something weird recently. Every time I masturbate, I get these super sharp, cramp-like pains in my stomach. It lasts for about a minute or so, and if I move around too much, I get the pain again but it feels like it's moving up towards my chest. I usually do it every day, so I'm kinda worried and wondering what's going on. Any idea what this could be?

Overexcitement_: Rushing into intercourse can lead to premature ejaculation. 2. Lack of control: Insufficient practice in controlling ejaculation can contribute to the issue. 3. Performance anxiety: Fear of not satisfying your partner can exacerbate the problem.

Solutions

1. Practice relaxation techniques: Regular relaxation practices, such as deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, or meditation, can help reduce anxiety and improve control.
2. Exercise pelvic floor muscles: Strengthening the pelvic floor muscles through Kegel exercises can help improve ejaculation control.
3. Use the "stop-start" technique: During intercourse, stop when you feel close to ejaculation, wait for 30 seconds to 1 minute, and then resume.
4. Try the "squeeze" technique: When you feel close to ejaculation, squeeze the base of your penis or the head of your penis to delay ejaculation.
5. Consider counseling or therapy: A sex therapist or counselor can help you address underlying issues and develop strategies to improve your sexual performance.
6. Topical anesthetics or delay sprays: Certain products, like lidocaine or benzocaine sprays, can help reduce sensitivity and delay ejaculation.

Remember

1. Communicate with your partner: Openly discuss your concerns and work together to find solutions.
2. Practice patience and persistence: Overcoming premature ejaculation takes time and effort.
