How diabetes linked to erectile dysfunction
October 08, 2007
A recent study revealed that men have diabetes
can have a problem with erectile dysfunction or impotence. Erectile
dysfunction occurs in all men with type 1 diabetes as well as in
those with the type 2 diabetes.Acccording to that study men thought
who are suffering with sexual dysfunction, diabetes is a third most
common and important complications - after kidney disease and blindness
and they also have good reason for it. Only not in men diabetes
may affect the sexual function of women too.
Nerves and blood vessels are two main factors related to damage
diabetes .Because diabetes can lead to hardening and narrowing of
the blood vessels that supply the spongy (erectile) tissue of the
penis .So good sexual function requires good circulation and flow
of blood to the genitals and that flow and circulation is primarily
controlled by internal organs like heart and bladder which are controlled
by nerves of the autonomic nervous system. And the blood vessels
are part of the cardiovascular system and function to transport
blood throughout in the whole body.
Higher your LDL (Low-density lipoprotein) level the more risk factors
like you have triglycerides (other than LDL), the greater your risk
of developing heart disease and diabetic patient have greater risk
of developing it as compare to healthy person.Diabectics should
be keep their LDL below 100 mg/dl - as low as 70 or 80 if possible.
For men, taking PDE5 Inhibiting Drugs to overcome ED .PDE5 help
a man achieve and maintain an erection PDE-5 inhibitor drugs, such
as first Viagra
later Cilais and Levitra.This class of drugs work by promoting dilation
of blood vessels and increase blood flow into the penis .These drug
effective for erectile dysfunction related to either hypertension
or diabetes, although less so for diabetes.
Apart from that, it also make sense to keep your
blood pressure in target range, to quit smoking and start exercising
and turn better sexual health.
