I am 42 years old and work as a middle-level manager at a company. My job is usually stressful, and there are many social engagements. Starting two years ago, I felt my body was on a decline, especially in my marital life. I always felt I didn't last long enough, which affected my confidence. Although my wife doesn't say it out loud, I can sense she is somewhat dissatisfied.

I've looked at many products online, both oral and topical. I was worried about the side effects of oral ones, so I decided to try a topical product first. I came across this [Japanese Maruei 2H2D Platinum Endurance Spray 10ml Men's Delay Spray with Travel Size], which claims to be a pure herbal formula, non-numbing, and comes with a free gift. I thought I'd try a small bottle of the Japanese Maruei 2H2D Platinum Endurance Spray since it wasn't expensive.

First Trial: Weekend Evening Experience

I received the product about a month ago. I chose a weekend evening, about an hour and a half after dinner, and after showering, I was ready to use it. Following the instructions, I sprayed twice on the area and gently spread it evenly, mainly on the glans and the corona. After spraying, it felt a bit cool but not stinging. Then I put on my clothes and waited about 20 minutes.

To be honest, for the first 10 minutes, I was a bit skeptical—it didn't seem to have any special effect. But after about 20 minutes, I could indeed feel that the area became less sensitive, but not in a numb, sensationless way—just a slight reduction in stimulation. During the actual act, I felt I lasted about 15 minutes longer than usual. Although it wasn't a dramatic change, I was quite satisfied with the result on the first try.

Subsequent Use: Finding the Best Method

With the first experience under my belt, I used it several more times. I noticed some patterns:

* Onset Time: Most of the time, I spray about 20-30 minutes before intercourse. If the time is too short, the effect doesn't seem to fully kick in; if I wait too long, like over an hour, the effect seems to weaken a bit. You really need to find the optimal onset time through trial and error.
* Dosage: I usually spray 2-3 times. One spray doesn't seem effective enough, and more than that feels wasteful and unnecessary. So 2-3 sprays is my "golden dose."
* Washing Off: The instructions say you can wash it off without affecting the effect. I tried rinsing it off after waiting 20 minutes, and it indeed didn't affect the effect, which made me feel more at ease, and my wife wouldn't notice any odor. However, after rinsing, I felt the duration might be slightly shorter by about 5 minutes, but it's not a big deal. If you want the best effect, not rinsing might be better.
* Duration: After several uses, I feel it helps me last about 20-30 minutes longer. Normally, I might last about 10 minutes, but after using it, I can reach 30-40 minutes. This improvement is already great for me. Once, I was in particularly good form and lasted nearly 50 minutes, which boosted my confidence immensely.

Summary of Feelings and Effects

My biggest takeaway from this 2H2D Platinum Spray is that it's non-numbing. I've used other [endurance gel] products before, and some had a strong numbing effect, leaving almost no pleasure. But with this 2H2D, the pleasure remains; it just raises the stimulation threshold, allowing me to better control the pace and not "finish too quickly."

Its claimed pure herbal formula also gives me peace of mind. I haven't experienced any allergies or discomfort. My wife hasn't complained about any odor or discomfort either. This is very important to me since it's a shared experience.

Inconveniences and Drawbacks

No product is perfect, and the 2H2D Platinum Spray has its inconveniences:

1. Requires Advance Planning: You need to spray 20-30 minutes in advance, which means it's not very spontaneous. Sometimes, when the mood strikes, having to wait half an hour can be a bit of a mood killer. Of course, with practice, you can better manage this timing.
2. Absorption Time Varies by Individual: I've noticed that different people have different absorption rates and effects with such products. A friend of mine bought the same product and said he needs to wait 40 minutes for the best effect. So when you first start using it, you need to try several times to find the method that works best for you, which might sacrifice a few experiences. Unlike some oral products that take effect as soon as they kick in, but I'm also afraid of the side effects of oral ones.

Simple Comparison with Other Products

There are many delay products on the market, and I've looked into some before. Here's a simple comparison of a few I've used or know about:

* 2H2D Platinum Spray (the one I use):
* Onset Time: About 20-30 minutes
* Duration: Extends by 20-30 minutes
* Numbness: Basically no numbness, pleasure retained
* Irritation: Gentle, no significant discomfort
* Price: Moderate, cost per use is not high

* [Pirelli Spray]:
* Onset Time: About 30 minutes, some say up to 40 minutes
* Duration: Extends by 20-40 minutes
* Numbness: Some users report slight numbness
* Irritation: Some report a burning sensation
* Price: Slightly lower than 2H2D, good value
* I once read a review article about [Pirelli Spray] that was quite detailed and could serve as a reference.

* [2H2D Black Gold Edition]:
* Onset Time: About 15-25 minutes, slightly faster than the Platinum version
* Duration: Extends by 25-35 minutes, slightly stronger effect than the Platinum version
* Numbness: Also claims to be non-numbing, but might be a bit more "potent" than the Platinum version
* Irritation: Gentle, but might be slightly stronger
* Price: Slightly higher than the Platinum version
* I later tried the [2H2D Black Gold Edition] and felt there were subtle differences in effect compared to the Platinum version, but overall, both are good.

* Some Oral ED Products (e.g., Viagra-like):
* Onset Time: Generally faster, 15-60 minutes depending on the product
* Duration: Several hours or even longer
* Numbness: No numbness, but may come with other side effects
* Irritation: May include headaches, facial flushing, increased heart rate, etc.
* Price: Higher cost per use, requires doctor's guidance
* I also occasionally take [Maca for hardness] supplements, but those are mainly for overall conditioning and are different from this instant-effect spray.

Who Is It Suitable For? Who Is It Not Suitable For?

Suitable for:

* Mild to Moderate Premature Ejaculation Sufferers: If you, like me, can usually last about 10 minutes and just want to extend it a bit to boost confidence, this product is very suitable.
* Those Seeking a Natural Experience Without Numbness: If you strongly dislike numbness and want to retain most of the pleasure, this product does well in this regard.
* Those Concerned About Safety of Topical Products: Herbal formula, low irritation, gives peace of mind.

Not Suitable for:

* Severe Premature Ejaculation Sufferers: If you can't last even a few minutes normally, you might need stronger medication or a doctor's consultation; this product may have limited effect.
* Those Who Need Immediate Effect: It requires waiting for the effect to kick in, so it's not suitable for spontaneous occasions.
* Those Allergic to Plant Ingredients: Although it's a herbal formula, any ingredient can cause allergies; it's recommended to test on a small area first.
* Those Seeking Maximum Endurance Improvement and Don't Mind Numbness: There are products on the market with stronger effects but may come with numbness; if you don't mind that, you can consider other options.

Overall, the Japanese Maruei 2H2D Platinum Endurance Spray has been a satisfactory attempt for me personally. It has helped me regain some confidence and made my marital life more harmonious. I hope my real experiences can provide some reference for those still on the fence.
