Can diabetic medication cause erectile dysfunction?

My husband went through this exact same worry last year when he was diagnosed. His doctor explained that uncontrolled diabetes is the main culprit, though certain blood pressure pills can also contribute. There is absolutely no need to feel shy; doctors deal with this daily and can easily help you.

Take it from someone who has had diabetes for 20 years: don't blame the medicines and stop taking them, as that will only make the nerve damage worse. If you have concerns, ask your physician to review your prescription. With proper sugar control and a walk daily, you can manage it easily.

My cousin was talking about this after his diabetes diagnosis and he was so stressed. But the doc told him that keeping high blood sugar is way worse for circulation than any medication. Once he started hitting the gym and taking his pills, things got much better.

I was facing this severe issue for six months and thought it was due to my metformin. But when I visited my urologist, he cleared my doubts and told me it was nerve damage from my high HbA1c. Now that my sugar is in target range, my health has recovered completely.
