Researchers suggest that diabetes increases risk of erectile dysfunction by 3 times, compared with men of same age, who have normal blood sugar. In today&#8217;s article you will learn about effective measures for treating impotence in men with diabetes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>Causes\nof problems with potency in diabetes can be many, and doctor determines them\ntogether with patient. The list includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Impaired patency of blood vessels that\nfeed penis.<\/li><li>Diabetic neuropathy \u2013 damage to nerves\nthat control erection.<\/li><li>Reduced production of sex hormones.<\/li><li>Taking certain medications (<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Antipsychotic\">antipsychotics<\/a>,\nantidepressants, non-selective beta blockers).<\/li><li>Psychological impotence.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why does diabetes affect potency?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In\norder for erection to occur, you need to pump about 100-150 ml of blood into penis,\nand then reliably block its exit from there until end of sexual intercourse.\nThis requires good work of blood vessels, as well as nerves that control process.\nIf diabetes is poorly compensated, i.e., blood sugar is kept chronically\nelevated, then it affects nervous system and blood vessels, and thus worsens\nmale potency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Glycation is reaction of glucose with proteins. The higher concentration of glucose in blood as result of diabetes, the more proteins undergo this reaction. Unfortunately, glycation of many proteins leads to disruption of their functioning. This applies to proteins, which form nervous system and walls of blood vessels. Produced \u201cend products of glycation\u201d \u2013 poisons for human body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"668\" src=\"https:\/\/www.perthmeds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/worried-man.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-254\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.perthmeds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/worried-man.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.perthmeds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/worried-man-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.perthmeds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/worried-man-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.perthmeds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/worried-man-640x428.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Diagnosis of deterioration of potency causes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Main\nway to diagnose male sexual weakness in diabetes is to collect information\nusing questions, and also to refer patient to tests and examinations. Most\nlikely, doctor will offer to fill out special questionnaire or will be limited\nto oral survey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Doctors\nwill be interested in what blood sugar level is norm for patient and how well\ndiabetes is compensated. Find out blood sugar rates here. If complications of\ndiabetes have already developed in kidneys, vision has deteriorated, patient\ncomplains of heart, diabetic damage to nervous system has been identified, then\nmost likely problems with potency have \u201cphysical\u201d cause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If\n\u201cexperience\u201d of diabetes is small and general state of health is good, then psychological erectile\ndysfunction treatment is necessary. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Examinations in treatment of impotence<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To\nfind out the state of blood vessels that feed penis, ultrasound is doing. This\nis called Doppler of cavernous bodies vessels. They may also prescribe intravenous\npharmacodiagnostic study. Its essence is that in penis injection of drug that\nrelaxes blood vessels is made, and it`s examined whether there will be erection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If\nyou have been prescribed intravenous pharmacodiagnostic study, then make sure\nthat it`s done using prostaglandin E1. Previously,<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Papaverine\"> Papaverine<\/a> or its\ncombination with phentolamine was used for this purpose. But schemes with Papaverine\ntoo often caused complications, and now it`s recommended to replace it with\nprostaglandin E1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ways of diabetes and erectile dysfunction treatment<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Best treatment for\nerectile dysfunction in diabetes is to lower blood sugar and\nkeep it close to normal values. Doctor will insist that patient conduct\nintensive treatment of his diabetes, giving it time and energy. If you\nnormalize blood sugar, then often this is enough to restore male potency to\nfull.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maintaining\nnormal level of glucose in blood is best way to treat not only potency\nproblems, but also all other complications of diabetes. Sexual function will\nimprove because vascular lesion will slow down and symptoms of diabetic\nneuropathy will weaken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At\nthe same time, most diabetics complain that it`s almost impossible to lower\nblood sugar to normal. Because there are more cases of <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Hypoglycemia\">hypoglycemia<\/a>. But there\nis real way to do it \u2013 just eat less carbohydrates. Focus on foods rich in\nprotein and natural healthy fats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So,\nas you can see, diabetes and erectile dysfunction treatment can be together. You\nmust have good doctor to solve all the problems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Most men with diabetes of 1 or 2 type have potency problems.
