Diabetes and ED are highly correlated. Diabetes by affecting multiple systems such as the autonomic nervous system, peripheral vascular system, and (sometimes) the spirit of the nervous system to affect erectile function. Survey shows that high blood pressure and heart disease patients, significantly impaired sexual function in ischemic heart disease have had over 60 patients, ED prevalence rate of 59%, while the same age group was 35% normal.
Third Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen associate professor, said Zhang Bin, such as cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure patients will have their own blood flow, arteriosclerosis, hardening of the arteries in particular, the phenomenon of tiny penis erection that is to rely on sponge inside the tiny blood vessels, Therefore, these men with sexual dysfunction in patients with relatively high. Men with diabetes are at high risk of sexual dysfunction, Zhang says, diabetes, vascular neuropathy, men inside the corpus cavernosum smooth muscle and fiber have a certain proportion of vascular disease occurs, it will affect the function of nerve conduction, blood vessels expand, blood flow reduced, causing reduction of cavernous smooth muscle, leading to sexual dysfunction. The current trend of diabetes at a younger age, if a young age appeared erectile dysfunction, after excluding psychological reasons, in the male out-patient clinics, the doctor will generally ask the patient to check blood sugar, once diagnosed with diabetes, diet control and drug treatment in the foundation on the use of some drugs vessel function expansion.
Diabetes and ED are highly correlated. Diabetes by affecting multiple systems such as the autonomic nervous system, peripheral vascular system, and (sometimes) the spirit of the nervous system to affect erectile function. Experts say the prevalence of diabetic ED is high in diabetic patients in the ED-year prevalence rate of 68 cases per thousand, is 2 times the normal population, people diagnosed with diabetes, 10 years, the possibility of occurrence ED is 50%. ED occurred in the prevalence and severity of diabetes age, disease duration, diabetes type, glycemic control conditions, diabetic neuropathy, diabetic nephropathy and high blood pressure and other factors are clearly related.
