Abstract

The prevalence of erectile dysfunction among diabetic patients is not exactly known. There is no doubt, however, that due to the complex nature of complications of poorly controlled diabetes, related to both blood vessel and nervous system damage, the frequency of these disorders increases with the duration of the disease. The coexistence of hypertension and obesity is also important, especially in the case of patients with type 2 diabetes. Our sexuality is slowly ceasing to be a taboo subject, so we are talking more and more often about the treatment of erectile dysfunction. In this article we present this problem from the diabetic point of view.
