45. Sex FAQs - Performance Anxiety & Penis S.O.S.

Author: Sara Tang, Sexologist & Coach March 6, 2022 Duration: 52:37

Ever been in a sexual situation where your - or your partner's - penis wasn't doing exactly what you wanted it to do? 

 

Penis issues are incredibly common, yet they are often accompanied by stress, fear, anxiety, and shame. The penis-owner can feel like a failure, and they can make sex a task instead of a pleasure.

 

That's why Sara and Jeff Abraham, CEO of sexual health company Promescent (http://promescent.com) sit down and answer your most pressing penis questions on this Sex FAQs episode. Topics include:

  1. How do I overcome performance anxiety?
  2. What can I do to keep my erections strong with age?
  3. How can I last longer during sex?
  4. How can I improve my male masturbation sessions? 
  5. How do I maintain an erection with condoms? 
  6. What if I struggle to ejaculate during sex?

 

Sara and Jeff shed some light on the causes of common penis issues, and talk about what to do if, or when, things go south in different situations.

 

Penis challenges are very common, and they don't have to signal the end of your sex life. After all, there's so much more to sex than just erections and ejaculations, so shifting away from a penis performance mindset and finding creative ways to satisfy each other is key.

 

As communication is the most important tool to solve any kind of penis issue, speak up and seek help with any challenge you may be experiencing. Ultimately, penis issues are nothing to be ashamed of. 

 

Tune in to the episode to get tips on keeping your penis healthy and happy in any S.O.S situation.
