An international team, led by Professor Stanley Althof of Centre for Marital and Sexual Health of South Florida, has come up with the spray known as PSD502, which actually consists of a combination of two sensation-numbing drugs.

Prof Althof was quoted by British newspaper 'The Daily Telegraph' as saying: "Premature ejaculation can have a powerful negative impact on the emotional and sexual lives of men and their partners.

"Recently, the international sexual health community agreed that PE should be defined as ejaculation occurring within approximately one minute of penetration that causes the patient distress. Now, we need to work to develop treatments, and these encouraging results with PSD502 seem to be a step in the right direction."
