Diabetics are inclined to grow erectile dysfunction about 5- 15 years earlier than men without diabetes. As diabetics grow old potency problems become more often. Approximately at the age of 50 the possibility of having erection problems happens to about 50%-60% of men with diabetes. For diabetics in the age of 70, there is about a 95% possibility of obtaining potency dysfunction.
The afflictions of erectile dysfunction in men with diabetes are complicated and involve nerve damage, corruption of blood vessel, and muscle dysfunction.
A normal process of erection requires healthy blood vessels, nerves, male hormones, and a sexual arousal. Diabetes damages the blood vessels and nerves that are responsible for penile erection. Diabetics usually have no problems with sexual desire and have normal hormonal balance still they are not able to achieve a firm erection.
Diabetics having potency problems are usually administered oral therapies for ED treatment. Besides leading a healthy life is necessary to keep the blood sugar under control.
