Condom/SSRIs: Condoms may be helpful with sensitization issues. Some condoms have Benzocaine (a topical anesthetic) which helps further with sensitization issues. Also, a side effect of ssris (paxil, prozac, celexa, lexapro, (escitalopram) zoloft) is often to delay ejaculation and they have been used at times to treat premature ejaculation.

PE: I have tried a few strategies for my patients to help delay the pe. Using a condom with a numbing medication inside the condom desensitizes the the penis and will help to delay the time till ejaculation. Once the condom is off, the medication wears off in about 1/2 an hour. Another approach is using the side effect of a prescription medication such as zoloft or Paxil (paroxetine) to delay the ejaculation.

Many options: Distract by thinking nonsexual thoughts. "stop and start":  stop stimulation before ejaculation for 30 seconds and restart. Repeat as desired.  "squeeze" method: man or partner gently squeezes the end of penis (where the glans meets the shaft) for several seconds. Stop stimulation for 30 seconds, and restart . repeat as desired. Ssris such as prozac (fluoxetine). use condom/local anesthetic cream.
