When using delay sprays, there are just as many important factors to consider as with oral products. Today, we’ll focus on two critical timings related to delay sprays: onset time and duration.
Don’t underestimate these two timings—they can significantly impact the effectiveness of the delay spray after application.
In our actual testing, we found that some brands of delay sprays work very well. However, some users reported poor results, primarily because they did not pay attention to the following two timings.

How Long Does The Effect Of Delay Spray Work?
Since delay sprays are applied directly to the surface of the penis, it’s important to understand that they don’t work immediately upon application.
Delay sprays have two types of active ingredients: chemically synthesized and plant-based, leading to significant differences in their onset times.
Generally, the active ingredients in delay sprays need to be absorbed through the skin, requiring some waiting time before they take effect. The specific waiting time varies depending on the ingredients:
Plant-Based Ingredients:
If the delay spray contains plant-based or herbal ingredients, these do not stimulate the nerves directly. Therefore, the onset time is slower, typically requiring a wait of about 15-30 minutes before intercourse. Using the spray and then washing it off within 3-5 minutes will render it ineffective, as this brief duration is insufficient for the active ingredients to take effect.
Chemically Synthesized Ingredients:
For delay sprays with synthetic ingredients, the onset time is much faster. These ingredients work by directly stimulating the nerves, resulting in quicker effects. Generally, you need to wait only about 3-10 minutes after application.
The following are the onset times for some commonly recommended delay sprays on delay spray review websites:
STUD 100: 5-10 minutes
K-Y: 15 minutes
Promescent: 10-20 minutes
Trojan: 40 minutes
Dynamo: 30 minutes
When using delay sprays, ensure that the waiting time is longer than the onset time to achieve the best results. It’s better to wait a little longer than necessary rather than too short, as insufficient waiting time will significantly reduce the effectiveness of the spray.
How Long Does The Effect Of Delay Spray Last Time?
Many people, especially younger individuals, might engage in sexual activity multiple times a night and worry about whether the delay spray will still be effective during subsequent sessions. Here’s what the data shows:
Delay sprays generally have a peak effectiveness period. They work best within the first 3 hours after application. Their effectiveness decreases after 6 hours and is minimal beyond that, especially for men who tend to finish quickly.
Given this, some might wonder if they can reapply the spray to maintain its effects. Here’s the answer:
Reapplying the spray within a short period (less than 12 hours) when the initial effect seems weak or has worn off is not advisable. Overloading the penis with too much of the spray’s active ingredients in a short time can lead to decreased hardness or even difficulty achieving an erection.
The solution is to choose a delay spray with a longer-lasting effect. For instance, the Enjoy Long series, the Yejin S series, and the Dragon Water Ultra Strong versions are known for their extended duration of effectiveness.
So, if you find that a delay spray isn’t working as expected, it’s worth checking the onset and duration times discussed here:Why Delay Spray Not Working. This information can help you adjust your usage for better results.
