For many people, the goal during foreplay and sex is to orgasm as quickly as possible. However, for others, delayed gratification might be more of a turn-on than rushing into orgasm. Enter: edging.
Edging is when you intentionally stop stimulating yourself or a partner right before the point of orgasm, and then start up again and repeat the process until you're ready to have or give an orgasm.
Here's what you need to know about edging as well as how to do it either alone or with a partner.
Put simply, edging is the intentional delay and control of orgasm, says sex therapist Aida Manduley, LCSW , who practices at The Meeting Point . While to some people the concept may seem foreign and confusing, there are multiple reasons why you might want to engage in edging.
Depending on the situation and personal preferences, the duration of edging can vary.
"For some people, edging does end in orgasm in the same sexual session, while for some, the delay can span hours, days, months, or longer before an orgasm is achieved or allowed," says Manduley. Typically, the longer delays are a part of kink with power dynamics.
Despite all these benefits, edging may not be right for everyone. "For some people –– especially those who experience inconsistent arousal, difficulties staying present, or erectile difficulties –– edging can be tricky and lead to a 'lost orgasm' or 'ruined orgasm,' or getting out of the mood," says Manduley.
In and of itself, edging is safe, Manduley says. However, it depends on what methods someone is using for edging. If you're simply just stopping and holding off on stimulation, this is totally safe. But if you're getting kinky and doing something that meaningfully cuts off blood flow or numbs the genitals, for example, this could be dangerous.
It's a myth that people with penises can experience harm from being "backed up" with ejaculate due to edging. "Any sexual fluid that is produced but not expelled will get reabsorbed and/or broken down as needed," says Manduley.
The only other safety concern to consider is psychological. Manduley says you should never edge someone without consent. Always discuss edging with your partner first before doing it.
The overall concept of edging is not too complicated, and you can go about it however you'd like. "Think of it like driving around a house before pulling into the driveway. You can keep circling the house, you can pull a little bit into the driveway, then pull out, circle the house some more, and whenever you're ready, you can pull the car fully in. Or you can decide you just want to entirely drive off and not pull in at all," says Manduley.
It's a bit easier to edge during masturbation than it is to edge with a partner since there's no communication gap. Manduley says to follow these steps:
First off, make sure edging is consensual before diving in, and remember that communication is key. Our partners aren't mind readers, Manduley says. Follow these steps to edge with your partner:
Edging is an exciting and generally safe way to switch things up in the bedroom either solo or with a partner. There are multiple ways to go about it, and you can tailor the situation to your personal preferences for the most pleasure. If you're edging with a partner, remember that consent is key.

This is beneficial for men who experience premature ejaculation. You will have better control over your orgasms and be able to stop yourself from climaxing in certain cases.
The name edging was given because you are taking yourself to the very edge, and then stopping all stimulation so that the orgasm is never reached.
This method is more effective with men due to their longer refractory period. Women can try this too, but it will not be as beneficial.
Before starting, one must learn about the different stages of arousal in order to know the best time to pull back.
For beginners, it is recommended to pull back at level 7. However, the goal of edging is to be able to pull back at level 9. After about 6 months of edging correctly, you will be able to skip PONR and experience dry orgasms.
Before you begin edging, you will need a quiet place, lubricant, and a timer. This can also be performed during masturbation or foreplay.
Step 1. Edging is best done while lying down with your eyes closed. Stimulate yourself until your penis is hard. Make sure to focus on how you feel so you are aware when you reach a certain level of arousal.
Step 2. Stroke your penis similar to masturbation. You may use a lubricant to do this. In this step, avoid touching the penile frenulum (the skin located under the center of the head) and the entire head. It is important not to stimulate them too soon as they are the most sensitive parts of the penis.
Step 3. For beginners, you may stop stimulating yourself when you reach level 4. This is when you start to feel really aroused but still feel it is easy to hold back your orgasm. On your next sessions, your goal is to stop yourself beyond level 4, gradually reach level 9, and still be able to stop and hold back your orgasm.
Step 4. If it becomes too difficult to hold back, stop completely and think of something different. It is helpful to inhale and exhale a few times to help yourself cool down. Make sure you are feeling all the sensation and not ignoring them (unless you are at your edge avoiding an orgasm). This is the key to becoming better at edging.
Step 5. When you start to feel that you are no longer going to orgasm, you can start stimulating yourself again. Some men are more sensitive, and will need to take a longer break. Repeat these steps for at least 20 minutes in every session. In some steps, you will be closer to orgasm than in others.
Step 6. It is up to you if you want to let yourself ejaculate. When you are ready to ejaculate, it is ok to stimulate the frenulum and head. Your orgasm will be much stronger and longer than usual. You will also more force when ejaculating (be careful not to take anyone’s eye out ). This can lead to cramps, so make sure to eat something and drink water before hand.
Every session, keep in mind that the goal is to be able to reach a higher level of arousal before stopping yourself.
It is okay not to reach level 8 or 9 in your first few weeks. Edging at a higher level may take more time for some, and becoming better comes with a regular practice.
When you feel that you have mastered edging, you may start doing the exercise by stroking the head as well.
When stopping right before an orgasm, you may experience strange orgasm variations. You may ejaculate without feeling the orgasm or you may feel the orgasm without ejaculating.
Those are normal and will allow you to learn more about yourself throughout the process.
Kegel is a pelvic floor muscle exercise that is very helpful when holding back your orgasm. This exercise involves flexing your pelvic floor muscles as if you are holding back your urine.
This article discusses the steps on how to perform Kegels properly.
Ballooning is a more complicated exercise where you stimulate yourself without ejaculating. It is also helpful with premature ejaculation.
With ballooning, you are supposed to stroke a specific part of your penis while doing reverse Kegels, then do some Kegels when you feel like you are about to orgasm.
This exercise must be done for 30 minutes to one hour. Not allowing yourself to ejaculate will result in a bigger flaccid penis and a much harder erection.

A ballooning technique is somewhat similar to the edging , but a lot of men who have done it feel it is better than edging. It can be perfect complement to using a penis pump like the Bathmate .
Many information about ballooning available online and oftentimes resulting in information overload as to which one present the right way of doing it.
The fact, ballooning can be difficult to master, and it takes time for one to master and figure out how it is done a lot more effective than just simply doing it in a typical way.
Some people are simply lucky to get it the first time or at least the first few attempts.
However, there are many who have difficulty implementing and achieving ideal results.
When mastered, the ballooning technique can offer esoteric transcendental states along with full-body orgasms employing the protracted technique.
As mentioned, ballooning is almost similar to edging with the addition of Kegel exercises while performing a massage on a fully erect penis concentrating on the lower shaft part and the perineum area.
In simple terms, just like edging ballooning is a form of masturbation without ejaculating, and just as edging, ballooning can help improve premature ejaculation problems
