Since glucose is the major energy source for your nerves, blood vessels and muscles, maintaining healthy blood sugar levels in the body is extremely essential to help the body maintain healthy biological functions.
The longer the time you’ve had diabetes, lesser is the control which you have over your blood glucose levels and hence, higher is the risk of dysfunctions and complications. Sexual dysfunction is primarily a complication which results from damage to the body’s blood vessels and nerves which are responsible for supplying blood to the sexual organs of the body.
Modifications and changes in your lifestyle may be necessary to improve your overall sexual health. These changes would include, having a healthy diet and regular exercise routine, blood pressure as well as cholesterol control, avoiding cigarette smoking, bringing down your alcohol consumption to a bare minimum and very importantly, stress management.
