Diabetes, Metabolic Syndrome
Diabetes mellitus and metabolic syndrome are common health problems in our society. Men who have these conditions often have associated vascular, neurologic, hormonal and psychologic issues. Sexual health problems such as reduced interest, erectile function, ejaculation and orgasm intensity are reported far more frequently in men with diabetes and metabolic syndrome than in men without these conditions. The vascular, neurologic, hormonal and psychologic issues associated with the diabetes and metabolic syndrome are commonly the cause of the sexual problem. A thorough examination, however, is required for each patient to determine the specific cause(s) and therefore appropriate management.
