Application Instructions
Get ready to use Promescent 10 minutes beforehand. You will need to apply Promescent at least ten minutes before you engage in sexual intercourse. The numbing effects will last for up to an hour. Applying Promescent hours or seconds before you have sex will not work.
Prime the bottle. If you are using the standard metered-dose bottle, you will need to prepare it. Remove the small plastic piece over the nozzle. Unlock the child-resistant cap. Turn the bottle sideways and shake for ten seconds. Right the bottle and slowly press the spray pump. Do this up to twenty times, waiting about two seconds between pumps. When the formula releases, stop.
Determine your dose. For your first time, you might want to start with one or two sprays. The directions suggest three sprays for a first try, but many users find this numbs them too much. It is unsafe to use more than 10 sprays per dose. Each spray releases 10 mg of desensitizing lidocaine.
Locate your frenulum. Your frenulum is likely the most sensitive spot on your penis. It is the small ridge of tissue under the head of your penis, on the underside of your penis.
Apply 1-3 sprays. Spray Promescent directly onto your penis, or spray onto the tips of your fingers and rub the formula onto your penis. Repeat up to three times using the same method. While the recommended dosage is three, many users find one or two sprays are all they need. Apply to the frenulum, or other spots you consider sensitive. Make sure to rub it in after each spray. Wash your hands immediately afterward. Traces of Promescent on your hands could put you or your partner at risk of eye injury.
Wait ten minutes. Spend ten minutes without touching or washing your genitals. Your skin will absorb the Promescent in this time. Waiting for this absorption to take place will allow you to maintain good sensation. It also minimizes any transfer of the anesthetic to your partner. After ten minutes have passed, wash your genitals with soap and water. Trace amounts may cause numbness in your partner if you don't wash. Don't be afraid of washing. The active ingredients will all have been absorbed after ten minutes. Soaking your genitals will cause the Promescent to leach out, however. Do not take a bath after applying Promescent. Instead, wipe yourself clean with a wet washcloth. Once the Promescent is absorbed and the genitals are washed, products such as condoms or lubricant are safe to use.
Observe your progress during sex. Most users experience 2-3 times longer intercourse the first time they use Promescent. Some users report improved results after three uses of the product. During your first use, notice if you feel too numb or not numb enough. Ask your partner if it made him or her feel numb at all. Re-apply if you wish. If you feel effects are not strong enough, or have worn off, you can repeat your application. Do not use more than 10 sprays in total. If you used ten sprays for your first round of intercourse, do not re-apply. If you use more than ten sprays of Promescent, you may experience numbness, loss of erection, and irritation. In cases of overuse, wash your penis with soap and water immediately. Visit a doctor if symptoms persist.
Adjust the dose. Depending on how your first experience went, you may wish to spray more, less, or on different parts of your penis. If the numb frenulum didn't work for you, try spraying along the shaft, or on the glans. Repeat use will help you determine the right dose and the right method of application for you.
Things to Consider
Talk to your partner. Promescent does not just affect you. It affects your sexual partner or partners. Before use, discuss the risks and possible side effects of Promescent with your partner. Your partner risks experiencing numbness or irritation if you use Promescent. Inform your partner before you receive oral sex. Your partner's mouth may go numb, especially if you did not completely wipe off the Promescent after application.
Get a trial-sized bottle. If you and your partner aren't sure Promescent is right for you, get a trial sized bottle. These contain 10 sprays, and are designed for a single use. If you like it, you can invest in a standard metered-dose bottle.
Talk to your doctor. If you frequently ejaculate before five minutes of intercourse have passed, talk to your doctor. Premature ejaculation is common, but sometimes it can have a serious cause. If you have symptoms of diabetes, thyroid problems, nerve damage, or prostate cancer, visit a doctor and explain your concerns.
Check for allergies, illness, and injury. Promescent contains lidocaine. If you or your partner are allergic to this substance, do not use Promescent. If you use Promescent and find that you or your partner develop rashes, irritation, itching, or burning, discontinue use. Check for cuts and scrapes. Do not apply Promescent to skin that is broken or irritated. Check yourself, and have your partner check himself or herself, to ensure that neither of you have a rash, a cut, bumps, or other marks on your genitals. Do not use if your partner is pregnant, or might be. If you or your partner is being treated for kidney or liver disease, do not use Promescent.
