A new wipe that desensitises a man’s penis could help those who suffer premature ejaculation, experts have revealed.
The product, called Preboost, is believed to help guys last five minutes longer in the bedroom.
Results were seen after men used the wipes for two months.
After the wipe has been applied, it dries quickly and temporarily desensitises the penis, without numbing it.
Professor Ridwan Shabsighm, of clinical urology at Weill-Cornell Medical School in New York, told The Sun: “Premature ejaculation is the most common sexual dysfunction, affecting one in four men.
“Yet, we have limited options that really help men manage it.”
Premature ejaculation is where the male ejaculates too quickly during sexual intercourse.
The average time taken to ejaculate during intercourse is around five-and-a-had minutes, according to the NHS, but there’s no definition of how long sex should last.
Professor Shabsighm said the four per cent benzocaine wipes can help men achieve that average.
He added: “This phase four clinical study shows that over-the-counter Preboost benzocaine wipes allow men to delay ejaculation on average five minutes longer.
“It’s exciting considering the negative impact premature ejaculation can have on men and on their relationships.”
The wipes are available on Amazon in the US, costing $ 30 (roughly £23) for ten.
The wipes were tested on 26 men aged 18 or older who were in heterosexual and monogamous relationships.
All the guys taking part already suffered premature ejaculation, on average climaxing within two minutes or less.
The men were divided into groups, some were given the Preboost wipes, others were given a placebo for one month and then the Reboots wipes for a second month.
The results showed after a month of the treatment, the men using the Preboost wipes already showed improvement.
If you don’t fancy trying out wipes, the NHS suggests some other measures you can try yourself.
It can sometimes help to masturbate an hour or two before having sex, use a thick condom to help decrease sensation, take a deep breath to briefly shit down the ejaculatory reflex (an automatic reflex of the body during which ejaculation occurs), have sex with your partner on top (to allow them to pull away when you are close to ejaculating) or take breaks during sex and think about something boring.
