I dont last long in bed

I’m a student in one of our higher institutions. My problem is that I don’t last more than three minutes in bed with women. Please, let me know how I can last longer in bed because I have lost most of my relationships due to this.

Premature Ejaculation (EP) is a common issue for men. Between 30%-40% have it at some time in their life. So, keep in mind — it’s not something to worry about if it happens only occasionally. The cause of PE is not really known but emotional factors can play a role as can be seen in stress, depression, performance anxiety, guilt and relationship problems. Sometimes PE can be a problem for men with some underlying medical issues such as poorly treated high blood pressure, diabetes or erectile dysfunction (ED). That’s when the penis does not remain firm enough for sex. Men who are worried they could lose their erection may develop a pattern of rushing to ejaculate. It can be a hard habit to break but with the support of your wife, the habit can be broken. If this does not work, then the underlying cause should be diagnosed and treated by a doctor. Secondly, you will also last longer in bed and have a fulfilled sexual relationship if you can wait until you complete your studies and are married before engaging in sexual activities.
