Delay Sprays: Local Control Over Premature Ejaculation (PE)
Delay Sprays (or "prolongator sprays") are a category of topical products designed to solve one of the most common male sexual problems: premature ejaculation (PE). Their main goal is to reduce excessive sensitivity of the penis, allowing the man to gain better control over the moment of ejaculation and significantly extend the duration of sexual intercourse.
What is a Delay Spray?
Delay Sprays (e.g., VIGORA LIDO SPRAY, Stud 100) are topical medications in the form of a metered-dose aerosol. Their action is based on local anesthetics.
-
Active Ingredients: Most commonly Lidocaine or Benzocaine.
-
Concentration: Usually ranges from 7% to 13% (e.g., 9.6% or 10 mg per dose).
Key Advantages of Sprays (Compared to Pills)
-
Local Action: The spray only works where it is applied. It does not enter the systemic bloodstream (unlike Dapoxetine pills), which almost completely eliminates systemic side effects like nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, or interaction with alcohol.
-
Fast Effect: The action begins very quickly, usually within 5–15 minutes after application.
-
Dose Control: The man can regulate the degree of desensitization himself by changing the number of sprays ("pumps").
Detailed Mechanism of Action
The mechanism of action of delay sprays is based on local anesthesia.
-
Blocking Nerve Impulses: Lidocaine or Benzocaine temporarily blocks the sodium channels in the membranes of the nerve endings (receptors) on the skin of the penis.
-
Reducing Sensitivity: This leads to a controlled numbness and reduced sensitivity of the glans (head) and frenulum – the most sensitive areas.
-
Delaying the Reflex: Signals about stimulation travel to the brain more slowly and with less intensity. This helps to push back the "point of no return" and delay the ejaculatory reflex.
Key takeaway: A delay spray does not cure the cause of PE (which is often psychological or neurobiological). It is a symptomatic tool that mechanically prolongs the act.
Instructions for Use: Critically Important Rules
Correct application of the spray is key for efficacy and, more importantly, for the partner's safety.
1. Dosage and Method of Application
-
Dosage: The number of sprays is strictly individual. Always start with the minimum dose (2–3 sprays).
-
Method: Spray onto the head of the penis and the frenulum (the most sensitive areas). You can gently rub the product in.
-
Timing: Apply 5–15 minutes before sexual intercourse.
2. The Critical Step — Preventing Partner Transference
If the anesthetic gets onto the partner's vaginal or oral mucosa, it will cause unwanted numbness and loss of sensation for them. To avoid this, you must:
-
Option 1 (Best): After 5-15 minutes (once you feel the numbing effect), thoroughly wash the remaining spray off with warm water and soap. The effect for you will remain, as the anesthetic has already acted on your receptors.
-
Option 2: Use a condom. It will reliably isolate the anesthetic.
Contraindications and Side Effects
Contraindications
-
Allergy: Individual hypersensitivity or allergy to Lidocaine, Benzocaine, or other components of the spray.
-
Damaged Skin: Do not apply to broken, irritated, inflamed, or injured skin on the penis.
-
Partner's Pregnancy: Use only with a condom.
Side Effects
Side effects are usually local:
-
For the Man:
-
Excessive Numbness: If too much spray is applied. This can lead to loss of erection, as stimulation is needed to maintain it.
-
A slight burning or irritation at the application site.
-
-
For the Partner:
-
Loss of sensation and numbness upon contact (if the spray was not washed off).
-
Professional Advice on Using
-
Patch Test (Allergy Test): Mandatory. Before the first use, apply 1 spray to the inner elbow. The skin in the intimate area is hypersensitive. If there is no severe burning or rash within 30 minutes, the product is safe to use.
-
Combination with ED Drugs: Sprays do not treat erectile dysfunction. If you have problems with erection hardness, the spray might worsen it by reducing stimulation. In this case, the ideal solution is a combination:
-
Take a pill for erection (Sildenafil, Tadalafil).
-
Apply the delay spray before the act for prolongation.
-
Delay Sprays: Extended Q&A Section
-
How much longer does the spray prolong intercourse? When dosed correctly, a spray can increase the duration of intercourse by 3–5 times or more, depending on individual sensitivity.
-
What is better: a spray or Dapoxetine? It depends on the situation.
-
Spray works faster, has no systemic side effects (nausea, headache), and is compatible with alcohol.
-
Dapoxetine (pills) provides a more natural sensation (no numbness), but requires intake 1-3 hours prior and is strictly incompatible with alcohol.
-
-
What if the spray didn't work? You may have applied too little, or your PE may be psychogenic, which cannot be fixed by desensitization alone.
