The refractory period—ah yes, the Achilles’ heel of all gentlemen. Everyone suffers from it, and it is just NOT convenient, to say the least—especially not in this hobby. The refractory period will likely put a damper on more sessions than not.
So, what is the science behind the refractory period?
The refractory period is the recovery phase after orgasm during which it is physiologically difficult, or even impossible, for a man to achieve another erection or orgasm. Some gentlemen only need 15–20 minutes before they’re ready to go again, while others may require hours to get “in the mood” once more.
How do you shorten the refractory period?
Ah, the age-old question. One option is medication: taking Viagra before the session has been shown in studies to shorten the refractory period by a few minutes. Cialis can also help, although not as effectively as Sildenafil (the active ingredient in Viagra). This is due to Sildenafil’s ability to inhibit both PDE-5 and PDE-6 enzymes, making it the strongest ED pill on the market—though its side effects reflect that strength.
There are also natural methods that might help shorten the period:
1. Go down on the woman. This may shorten the wait slightly, but if not, it’s still a great way to pass the time.
2. Cold shower. A cold shower will shock the body and make you feel more alert, potentially giving you a “restart” to the session.
Of course, you can also try powering through the refractory period—although, personally, I haven’t been able to manage that yet.
Let me know what you do to counter the refractory period. Have you ever powered through it?
