I always finish sex sooner than my partner. How can I last longer?

Premature ejaculation is a common sexual disorder. Estimates vary, but some experts think it affects as many as one out of three men. Even though it’s a common problem that can be treated, many men feel embarrassed to talk to their doctors about it or seek treatment.
