Trouble during penetration

Unread post by Luckyclover »

I can last quite a while during oral sex or when I'm receiving a handjob but when it comes to penetration my penis seems to go crazy sensitive and I can barely last like I enter and I'm instantly ready to finish I would really like help with this so advice is greatly appreciated.

Hi Luckyclover, welcome to the boards!

Just in case, I want to note that this isn't necessarily a problem, and isn't something to be ashamed about. It could just be the way your body works right now. That said, we can offer advice on this. To start, some people find it easier to last longer when they use a condom, or when they try different positions, such as one where your partner is on top. You could also try to masturbate some time before intercourse. How does this sound?

I have tried condoms and different positions and masturbation beforehand and sometimes they work but it's never a sure thing most of the time I still fail to last and when I do last it's still under like 5 minutes.

Hi there!

Just so you know, 5 minutes is way above the average of how long it takes a person with penis to orgasm. So maybe this could be more about adjusting the expectations you have for your body rather then there being a problem with how it works. I really recommend this advice column that talks more about this and gives some more tips how to delay orgams as well: A problem with "premature" ejaculation...maybe isn't premature ejaculation.
