Diabetes and its Impact on Erectile Function

Today we are privileged to have Dr. Helen Bernie, an assistant professor of urology and director of the Male Sexual and Reproductive Medicine Program at Indiana University. Her practice specializes in men's health, erectile dysfunction, Peyronie's disease, prosthetic surgery, hypogonadism, male infertility, fertility preservation, and cancer survivorship.

Diabetes can severely impact a man's ability to achieve and maintain an erection, as it damages the blood vessels, nerves, hormones, and erectile tissues required for healthy sexual function. Type 1 diabetes is a genetic condition present from birth, while type 2 diabetes is typically acquired later in life due to obesity and unhealthy lifestyle factors.
