Spray On, Stay Up!
A spray may help premature ejaculators, writes Thomas H. Maugh II in the LA Times:
In a double-blind trial of more than 300 men with a lifetime history of prematurity, researchers found that the mean time to orgasm increased from about 0.6 minutes to 3.8 minutes in those using the spray.The findings, to be presented Tuesday at a Chicago meeting of the American Urological Assn., were released today.
This new topical spray "has promise to become one of the most effective treatments for premature ejaculation," said Dr. Ira Sharlip, a urologist at UC San Francisco and an association spokesman. "It has a number of characteristics which will be attractive to patients."
Premature ejaculation is one of the most common sexual problems of men, striking about 1 in every 3 -- compared with 1 in 4 who have erectile dysfunction.
Researchers have generally taken two approaches to overcoming the problem: treating the brain or numbing the penis.
Scientists noted some time ago that certain antidepressants, such as Zoloft and Prozac, had a side effect of delaying ejaculation. Johnson & Johnson developed a new drug, called dapoxetine, that maximized this effect. The drug has been approved in a couple of European countries, but the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has ruled that it is not approvable, in part because of the problems associated with long-term use of such drugs.
The other approach is to use a topical anesthetic, such as EMLA cream, a combination of the anesthetics lignocaine and prilocaine in a cream base. It has not been approved for treating premature ejaculation, but many physicians prescribe it off-label.
The cream takes 45 minutes to work, however. The man must also wear a condom, or the cream will rub off on the female, preventing her from achieving satisfaction.
On the female? I think they mean in the female, and eeeeuw!

So if I were really a selfish jerk, I might say, "Wow, a twofer!"
Instead all just point to this somewhat related story:
Viagra rival 'can be rubbed directly into skin'
A new generation of anti-impotency drugs that are rubbed into the skin could prove more effective than Viagra, research indicates.
Scientists in the United States have successfully tested the new technique – which involves tiny objects called nanoparticles – on rats and believe it could also be used to help humans.
Under the therapy, nanoparticles that release the anti-erectile chemical nitric oxide are rubbed on the problem area, and absorbed directly into the skin.
If you read further, apparently this research was performed by one or more grad students whose job was to give a sensual erotic massage (with happy ending?) to seven lucky rats.

0.6 minutes
Or in non sugar coated reality - little more than 30 seconds

(Think they go through Kleenex and Vaseline and all the rest same as the rest of the male population.)

Who uses Kleenex? You wind up with dozens of greasy paper balls and you can never find them all

Some of my buddies are on the North Idaho Rugby team. There were 3 of them living together a while back, all single. They never took the garbage out in the bathroom, just stomped it down. After a while it looked like a cement block of used condoms and kleenexes.

A spray to help with premature ejaculation?
I hope it's coming soon!
Thomas Fullery at April 27, 2009 11:08 AM
Isn't a solution to just go ahead and let the first one happen, then start again from the beginning without "one in the chamber"? If it happens "too soon" the first time, then can't a relatively short refractory period be assumed? Maybe you could turn it into a "two-fer"!

'The man must also wear a condom, or the cream will rub off on the female, preventing her from achieving satisfaction.'
Do they know that the clitoris is not inside a woman? Also, it's usually a good idea to get the woman off before the shagging begins.

Make foreplay longer for one, get her till she's about to explode then shove it in. Try not to be on top and also don't tighten your butt hole when thrusting. Also just as you are about to let fly, hold your thumb and index finger tight just below the head of your penis stopping the ejaculation this will give you a second wind. And besides that 5 minutes is actually pretty good, that is average, alot of men don't last 20 seconds

This is VERY late -- but there is already a spray that provides the indended delay function.
It's called, "mace".
