Impotence is one of the greatest unspoken fears of men suffering from diabetes. Diabetic impotence can be physical or psychological or a combination of the two. Sexual problems and erectile dysfunction are distressingly common in men with diabetes, so DO NOT WORRY, you are NOT ALONE. According to the British Medical Journal, impotence affects over one third of diabetic men. Despite these grim statistics for diabetic men, it should not be assumed that all impotence associated with diabetes is irreparable or irreversible.

Many men have been, or will be, concerned with the quality of their erection at some time in their life. It may be an occasional difficulty in getting or maintaining an erection; it could be an erection that is just not as firm as it once was; or it may be a consistent inability to achieve an erection. It is estimated that over 30 million men in the US have experienced at least partial erectile dysfunction (ED). You are not alone if you experience a loss of erectile function.

The probability of impotence and erectile dysfunction increases with age and with the presence of micro-vascular complications, particularly retinopathy (eye disease) and neuropathy (nerve damage). The chance of a 50 year old diabetic man being impotent is approx 50% if he has no complications, but that increases to almost 100% if he has nerve damage or poor circulation.
