Dr. James Lin answered

Here are some...: Besides being of passion, compassion, ; support, not much you can do. Physically, erection for intercourse, either for procreation or pleasure, is men's unique thing. Healthy lifestyle + no overindulgence ; obsession = surest insurance to keep up free-flow circulation to distribute nutrition to nurture all tissues ; organs = more energy ; ability to display an active/vibrant life, sex included.
