Dermatologist 's  Response
hello dear,
erection is maintained by tactile stimulus and impulses from brain.
there needs to be a good understanding, comfort during sexual activity and confidence, to maintain erection.
it cannot be maintained just physically.
tell him to discuss with her partner, and gain her confidence.
thank you
