Question 1

Do you need a prescription to order Delay Wipes?

Accepted Answer

Delay Wipes are cosmetic and don’t require a prescription. However, you must be over 18 to purchase them.

Question 2

How are Delay Wipes used?

Accepted Answer

Simply rub one or more Delay Wipes along your penis and wait for the area to dry. Once dry, you should experience a slight reduction in sensitivity that will enable you to enjoy longer-lasting sex.

The effects should last between 20-30 minutes, depending on how many wipes you use and how sensitive the area usually is.

Note: It’s important to apply a small amount of the Delay Wipe to your forearm before using Delay Wipes regularly to test for an allergic reaction. If an allergic reaction occurs, discontinue use and seek advice from a medical professional, or call the NHS 111 helpline.

Delay Wipes should be stored in a cool, dry place and be kept out of reach of children.

Question 3

Do Delay Wipes affect how pleasurable sex is?

Accepted Answer

Delay Wipes should only slightly reduce the sensitivity of the penis – giving you more control over when you ejaculate.

Using too many wipes at once may further reduce sensitivity, so avoiding excessive use is best.

Question 4

Can Delay Wipes be used during oral sex?

Accepted Answer

Delay Wipes are not intended for use during oral sex.

Question 5

Can Delay Wipes be used during anal sex?

Accepted Answer

It’s possible to use Delay Wipes for anal sex, as long as your partner isn’t allergic to any of the ingredients. If any irritation occurs discontinue use and seek advice from a medical professional or by calling the NHS 111 helpline.

Question 6

Can Delay Wipes be used during masturbation?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Delay Wipes can be used for masturbation. All our Wipes are dermatologically tested so they should not irritate your skin. However, if any irritation occurs discontinue use and seek advice from a medical professional or by calling the NHS 111 helpline.

Question 7

How much longer can you last when using Delay Wipes?

Accepted Answer

This depends greatly on your personal experience with premature ejaculation. However, you should experience an increase in the time it takes to ejaculate due to the action of each Wipe’s key ingredient, Laureth-9.

Question 8

Can you use Delay Wipes in the long term?

Accepted Answer

Delay Wipes can be used long-term. However, as you begin to gain control over your orgasms and your confidence starts to grow, you may want to try switching between using and not using the Wipes during sex to help reduce your reliance on them over time.

Question 9

Do Delay Wipes have any side effects?

Accepted Answer

Our Delay Wipes are dermatologically tested and compliant with EU cosmetic regulations.

However, some side effects may occur if the Wipes are used excessively (or if you experience an allergic reaction to one of the ingredients) such as:

Excessive numbness due to overuse.
Skin irritation and/or a burning sensation. If you or your partner develop a rash or irritation, stop using the Wipes.

Most side effects can be avoided by using a single wipe first before increasing the number of wipes used if needed. Wait five minutes for your penis to dry before having sex to avoid any potential irritation.

Question 10

What are the next steps if Delay Wipes don't work?

Accepted Answer

If the wipes don’t help you with premature ejaculation, there are several other things you can try:

Increase the amount of wipes you use from one to two.
Take a free online consultation with us and try premature ejaculation treatment (such as Priligy).
Speak to a psychotherapist in order to understand and overcome the psychological reasons behind premature ejaculation.
Practise certain behavioural techniques that can help to train your body to have more control over when you orgasm. The “squeeze” and “start-stop” techniques are two different strategies that can be practised during masturbation or sexual activity which, over time, can help to improve control over the timing of ejaculation.

We recommend getting in touch with one of our regulated clinicians to talk through your options and decide which steps are best for you. They are also able to recommend and prescribe treatments to help you find one that’s suitable for your needs.
