&lt;h1&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;10 Diabetes-Related Men&amp;rsquo;s Health &amp;amp; Urological Conditions&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;The early symptoms of diabetes in men may not be apparent, or the symptoms may not be obvious.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Some of the contributing factors of type 2 diabetes are family history, overweight &amp;amp; obesity, high blood pressure or high cholesterol, and age.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-clinic.com.ph/Files/Pai/10%20Diabetes%20Related%20Men%E2%80%99s%20Health%20%26%20Urological%20Conditions%20PULSE%20Clinic%20Philippines%20Male%20Hormone%20Men&#39;s%20Health%20BodyBuilding%20002~.jpg&quot; width=&quot;600&quot; style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Diabetes is a chronic medical condition in which the body is unable to produce enough insulin. Insulin is a hormone used to regulate blood sugar in the body.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;In the long term, it will result in too much sugar circulating in the bloodstream and cause circulatory, nervous, and immune system disorders.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;color: #0e101a; background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot; data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;The potential health issues of diabetes are often severe. For example, one may risk heart diseases, obesity, causing problems with the k&lt;/span&gt;idneys, skin, eyes, and men&amp;rsquo;s sexual health-related issues.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-clinic.com.ph/Files/Pai/10%20Diabetes%20Related%20Men%E2%80%99s%20Health%20%26%20Urological%20Conditions%20PULSE%20Clinic%20Philippines%20Male%20Hormone%20Men&#39;s%20Health%20BodyBuilding%20005%20copy.jpg&quot; width=&quot;600&quot; style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Symptoms of type 2 diabetes often develop and progress slowly.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;However, some of the common symptoms may include:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Fatigue,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Frequent urination,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Frequent infections,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Slow-healing,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Areas of darkened skin,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Increased hunger&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Diabetes can also lead to some urological and men&amp;rsquo;s sexual health problems in men. Nevertheless, many of these complications are treatable and preventable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-clinic.com.ph/Files/Pai/10%20Diabetes%20Related%20Men%E2%80%99s%20Health%20%26%20Urological%20Conditions%20PULSE%20Clinic%20Philippines%20Male%20Hormone%20Men&#39;s%20Health%20BodyBuilding%20004.jpg&quot; width=&quot;600&quot; style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Suppose the blood vessels and nerves in the penis are injured. It can lead to &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://pulse-clinic.com.ph/erectile-dysfunction&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Erectile Dysfunction (ED)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;color: #0e101a; background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;color: #0e101a; background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot; data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Damaged blood vessels can slow blood flow into the penis, a common cause of erectile dysfunction in men living with diabetes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot; data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;ED medications, such as&amp;nbsp;tadalafil&amp;nbsp;(Cialis), vardenafil (Levitra), and&amp;nbsp;sildenafil&amp;nbsp;(Viagra), may help you manage your condition.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Low Testosterone&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Men with diabetes are more likely to develop low testosterone. Also, men with low testosterone are more likely to develop diabetes later.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;When randomly tested for low testosterone and diabetes, as many as half of the men with diabetes have low testosterone.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Testosterone is a male sex hormone that helps the body&amp;rsquo;s tissues take up more blood sugar in response to insulin. As a result, men with low testosterone often have insulin resistance&amp;mdash;men with diabetes need to produce more insulin to normalise blood sugar.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;color: #0e101a; background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot; data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Having low testosterone can cause you to lose interest in sex and develop low libido (Low Sex Drive), body mass, experience moodiness and irritability, have erectile dysfunction (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/penile-rejuvenation-for-better-erection&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background: none 0% 0% repeat scroll transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot; data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;weak erection&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot; data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;), and&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/depression&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot; data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;you feel depressed&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot; data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3 style=&quot;color: #0e101a; background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3. Low Sex Drive (Low Libido)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/what-causes-low-sex-drive-in-men-low-in-libido&quot;&gt;Low Sex Drive (Low Libido)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;can impact the sexual life of both men and women with diabetes.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Men with type 2 diabetes or who are overweight have a higher risk of low testosterone than their peers without the two conditions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;If your sex drive is affected, first look to your diabetes management and&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/semaglutide-ozempic-rybelsus&quot;&gt;weight loss treatment&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;to lower your blood glucose levels. When low testosterone is treated through losing weight and testosterone therapy, many men have a renewed desire for sex.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4. Retrograde Ejaculation &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Retrograde ejaculation is one of the sexual health issues experienced by men with type 2 diabetes. Retrograde ejaculation happens when semen is ejaculated into the bladder instead of from the penis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Extremely high glucose levels can cause nerve damage to the sphincter muscles, causing retrograde ejaculation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;5. Retarded Ejaculation (Delayed Ejaculation)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Diabetes can lead to ejaculation problems due to the nerves in the penis becoming damaged. Lack of nerve sensitivity is one problem that can affect ejaculation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Retarded, delayed, and impaired ejaculation are all medical terms that describe a difficulty in achieving ejaculation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Retarded ejaculation is the&amp;nbsp;difficulty or inability to ejaculate&amp;nbsp;despite adequate sexual desire, erection, and stimulation. On the other hand,&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/premature-ejaculation&quot;&gt;premature ejaculation&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;happens when a man has an orgasm and ejaculates sooner than he or his partner would like. PE often occurs before or shortly after penetration during intercourse.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3 style=&quot;color: #0e101a; background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background: none 0% 0% repeat scroll transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot; data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;6. Overactive Bladder &amp;amp; Frequent Urination&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366; background: none 0% 0% repeat scroll transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot; data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Diabetes can lead to frequent urination, as the bladder doesn&amp;rsquo;t empty completely each time. Separately, high blood glucose in the urine can make people with diabetes urinate more often.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366; background: none 0% 0% repeat scroll transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot; data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;Moreover, higher glycosylated haemoglobin levels increased the risk of overactive bladder in patients with diabetes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-clinic.com.ph/Files/Pai/10%20Diabetes%20Related%20Men%E2%80%99s%20Health%20%26%20Urological%20Conditions%20PULSE%20Clinic%20Philippines%20Male%20Hormone%20Men&#39;s%20Health%20BodyBuilding%20001.jpg&quot; width=&quot;600&quot; style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Men with diabetes who don&#39;t properly manage their condition have twice the risk of developing Urinary Tract infection. UTI could result from blood glucose (sugar) levels not being adequately controlled. The sugar in the urine can promote bacterial growth.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;8. Recurrent Balanitis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Diabetes can cause &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/balanitis&quot;&gt;balanitis&lt;/a&gt; if the blood sugar is poorly controlled. Conversely, high blood sugar causes elevated amounts of sugar in the urine.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Sugar-rich urine dribbles on the glans and under the foreskin, providing a friendly environment for yeast and bacteria.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;If you have diabetes, your provider will show you how to manage the condition. Treatment for balanitis may include medication and circumcision. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;If you have recurring symptoms of balanitis, your doctor may recommend&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/circumcision&quot;&gt;circumcision&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/circumcision-thailand&quot;&gt;Adult circumcision&lt;/a&gt; is avaialble in Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Diabetes can lead to reduced sperm quality, but diabetes does not appear to affect the motility of sperm (the ability of the sperm to move towards the egg) or cause infertility as a result. &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/-semen-analysis-sperm-count-test&quot;&gt;Semen analysis (sperm count test)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is an effective way to check on your male fertility.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Obesity will decrease pregnancy rates and more significant pregnancy loss through assisted reproductive technology. In addition, while there is inconclusive evidence that obesity affects sperm motility, evidence suggests that obesity is associated with reduced sperm concentration.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Also, several prescription medications have been linked to infertility.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
