An anesthetic spray applied to the penis five minutes before intercourse enables men who suffer from premature ejaculation to last six times longer after penetration, a study shows.

Topical anesthetic creams have long been used in the treatment of premature ejaculation, but tend to be messy and inconvenient. The PSD502 spray, made by London, UK-based Plethora Solutions Ltd, is a combination of two anesthetics, lidocaine and prilocaine, which act, researchers believe, as desensitizing agents, which can help delay orgasm for men.

Men in the study were able to last an average of 6.3 times longer after penetration when they used the spray. The placebo group lasted 1.7 times longer.

After 3 months in the study, 90 percent of the men in the treatment group were able to delay orgasm for more than 1 minute following vaginal penetration, compared with 54 percent in the placebo group; 74 percent of men in the treatment group managed to last more than 2 minutes before orgasm, compared with 22 percent in the placebo group.

Sixty-two percent of men in the treatment group said their orgasms were ‘good’ or ‘very good’ after 3 months, compared with 20 percent before the study started. The figures for the placebo group were slightly lower at the end of the study (19 percent) than at the start of the study (21 percent).
