Sexual and Urological Issues
Diabetes causes nerve damage to the urinary tract and can cause bladder problems. Overweight and obesity can also cause bladder problems such as urinary incontinence (UI). Treatment of diabetes is an important part of avoiding complications that can lead to excessive urination. Diabetes can cause retrograde ejaculation, and poor glycaemic control over a long period of time causes bladder neuropathy. Retrograde ejaculation can occur in diabetic men as a result of diabetic autonomic neuropathy (nerve injury). Even if you have diabetes, you may be able to overcome ED by living a lifestyle that includes good sleep, non-smokers, and stress relief. ED drugs are usually well tolerated and can be used to overcome ED problems over the years. The most common type of sexual problem in men is erectile dysfunction (also known as impotence). This is when you cannot get or maintain an erection. The first sign may be when you start losing your morning erection. Men with diabetes are three times more likely to expect difficulty in obtaining or maintaining an erection.
