Premature ejaculation exercises in a guided weekly program
Developed by Murat Yön, clinical psychologist and sex therapist
Premature ejaculation is ejaculating sooner than you want; the worry that "it will happen again" feeds it. This program works on your threshold step by step.
First a free 3–4 minute assessment, then a plan ordered for you.

If one of these sentences is yours
- "It feels out of my control; it's over before it starts, and afterwards I pull away."
- "Every time I think 'it will happen again' — and that is exactly why it does."
- "We can't talk about it; I stay quiet so my partner won't feel bad."

What is inside
The Sexual Wellness premature ejaculation program has 5 sessions, spread over several weeks, covering how arousal and control work, threshold awareness, breathing and pelvic floor, and practicing with a partner. A 7-session body awareness section lays the ground for it, and both sit inside a 23-module, 179-session program. Your assessment answers set the order of these two and of the rest of the program.
Topics covered in this section
- Arousal and control
Understanding how the nervous system triggers ejaculation; seeing that this is not a matter of "willpower".
- Threshold awareness practice (weeks 1–2)
Learning to notice your own arousal level on a 1–10 scale; short daily practices, on your own.
- Breath and body
What to do with the breath and the pelvic floor as arousal rises; step by step.
- Practicing with a partner
How to do the same practice together; the conversation first, then the practice. There is a separate guide for partners.
- Maintenance protocol
Making the gain last: how many times a week, and what to do after a step back.
One of the premature ejaculation exercises in the program: threshold awareness
These exercises rest on noticing early that arousal is rising. This practice teaches you to track arousal on a 1–10 scale and to stop and wait before the threshold. For the first two weeks it is done alone; timing is secondary, and the aim is to recognize the signals.
- Start with five minutes of relaxation and breathing; this is practice, not a test.
- Begin arousal and track where you are on the scale; watch for signals such as faster breathing or a tightening belly.
- When you reach 6–7, stop stimulation completely, breathe deeply and wait until you are back at 3–4; this can take from half a minute to two minutes.
- Start again and repeat this stop-and-wait cycle three times; on the fourth round you can carry on without stopping.
- Afterwards, write one sentence: "When did I notice the first signal?" If 6 and 7 blur, use three zones instead: comfortable, rising, near the edge.
An erection often fades a little when you stop; you can shorten the pause. If the practice makes you more anxious, take a few days off. If this is new, or comes with pain, urinary symptoms or erectile difficulty, see a urologist first.

How the premature ejaculation program unfolds
- Assessment (3–4 minutes, free)
The questions follow your answers: how quickly ejaculation comes, whether it has always been this way or started later, and whether you can talk about it with your partner. No sign-up is needed; you create an account only if you want to keep the result.
- A plan ordered for you
The plan always opens with foundation sessions. If timing is in front for you, the 5-session section sits within the first three steps; if raising the subject is hard, communication sessions may come first, as in the example plan. Inside the section the order is fixed: understanding the nervous system, then solo threshold practice, then breathing, and partner practice last.
- Spread over weeks, on any device
The same account works on your phone and in the browser, so your practice weeks carry on from the session where you stopped. A bad week does not mean starting over; the maintenance session explains what to do after a step back. Your progress stays with you only.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which part is free?
The premature ejaculation assessment and the personal plan it produces are free, and you can see your plan without creating an account. The weekly threshold practice, the breathing work and the partner practice sessions open with a Sexual Wellness subscription. Current subscription options are on the pricing page.
How long do the exercises take?
The program is spread over weeks. For the first two weeks, threshold practice is suggested 3–4 times a week in sessions of 15–20 minutes; breathing and partner practice are added in the following weeks. The pace varies from person to person; the program does not promise a result or a date.
Are there techniques to last longer?
Yes; the program teaches them step by step: recognizing your arousal threshold, stopping and waiting, the squeeze technique, and relaxing the pelvic floor with the breath. You practice alone first, then with a partner if you wish. It does not recommend sprays, creams or medication; those belong with a doctor.
Can anyone else see my answers?
No. Many men never raise this even with their closest friend. Your assessment answers and which week you are in are stored only in your own account; they are not shown to your partner or to anyone else. You can delete your account entirely whenever you choose.
Does my partner need the app?
No. The program is for one person, and the first weeks of threshold practice are done alone anyway. The partner practice session opens from the same account and starts with a conversation and clear consent. There is a separate guide for partners on the site; without a partner, you can keep practicing on your own.
