Diabetes and Erection Problems

What is Diabetes?

shutterstock_111223349-diabetesDiabetes is a condition in which the body is unable to control blood glucose levels resulting in higher than normal blood glucose values. Whenever glucose levels in the body increase, there is a secretion of insulin from the pancreas.

Insulin causes the uptake of glucose into the cells, where it is either stored in the form of glycogen or utilized for the production of energy. In diabetes, either insulin production is decreased, or the cells become insensitive to insulin. There are two types of diabetes. In Type I diabetes the production of insulin is impaired; it typically occurs in younger people.

Type II diabetes occurs later in life, usually caused by decreased sensitivity of cells to circulating insulin.

Cause of Erectile Dysfunction in Diabetic Men

Elevated glucose levels over long periods of time (years) damage nerves, blood vessels, and muscles in the body. This damage is responsible for a number of complications of diabetes including impotence, neuropathy (loss of sensation or abnormal sensation).

Erectile dysfunction, or difficulty with obtaining and maintaining erections, results from damage to nerves, blood vessels and smooth muscles caused by diabetes.  Diabetes-induced damage to nerves and blood vessels of the penis causes decreased blood flow to the penis.  Because erections depend on high blood flow to the penis, decreased blood flow causes weak erections that are difficult to keep hard.

Over time as many as 70% of all diabetics will experience some level of erectile dysfunction with the incidence increasing with age and duration of diabetes. Among men older than 60 years old with diabetes, 50-60% experience erectile dysfunction.

Symptoms of Erectile Dysfunction

Erectile dysfunction presents as an inability to achieve a normal erection during sexual intercourse. Usually, the desire for sex or libido is not lost but erection is either partially achieved or if achieved, cannot be maintained for long periods and is usually lost before ejaculation.  Often the erections are not sufficiently hard.  

Diabetes may have a negative effect on testosterone levels. Low testosterone levels can make it difficult to maintain erections.   Some diabetic patients also lose libido due to low testosterone levels.

Conditions Contributing to the Risk of ED in Diabetic Patients

Erectile dysfunction is caused by many conditions in addition to diabetes. For example, ED is associated with heart disease, high blood pressure, diseases of the nervous system, and other conditions that affect nerves and blood vessels. It is necessary to exclude other causes of erectile dysfunction before definitively relating it to diabetes.  Some of these conditions, such as high blood pressure, often co-exist in diabetic patients.

At New York Urology Specialists, we offer a comprehensive approach to treating men with diabetes for ED.

Treatment of ED in Diabetic Men

Erectile dysfunction in diabetic patients presents with a long history of diabetes, poor sugar level control and initially, partial erectile dysfunction. There is often a loss of nocturnal erection i.e. the erection is not present on waking up, also known as early morning or sleep erections.  Erections may not as hard as they used to be.  As the problem progresses, it may be difficult to keep an erection hard long enough and difficulty with getting erections.

Treatment for ED includes addressing the underlying glycemic control. In other words, good control of diabetes is necessary. Ideally, Hemoglobin A1C levels should be around 6.5.   Medications such as sildenafil (Viagra), tadalafil (Cialis), vardenafil (Levitra) work well in most diabetic patients.

Medications such as Viagra and Cialis should not be taken by patients who are taking nitrates such as nitroglycerin. Headaches and visual changes (halos) are common adverse effects of PDE5 inhibitors such as Viagra and Cialis.

In men for whom Viagra, Cialis or Levitra do not work, another commonly used treatment option involves injections of medications directly into the penis (corpus cavernosum).  Alprostadil (prostaglandin E) or a combination of medications known as Trimix is used. It maintains an erection and is effective in 70 – 80 % of patients. Injectable options are effective in producing an erection in patients suffering from erectile dysfunction due to nervous system disease. 

Shockwave therapy for ED is another effective treatment option for men with diabetes. Shockwave therapy is administered in our offices, it is painless and allows many men with diabetes to obtain better erections with or without medications.

Vacuum erection devices, or VEDs, are another alternative to medical therapy.  Vacuum erection devices are effective for many men, inexpensive but sometimes cumbersome.

A penile implant is another effective treatment for erectile dysfunction.  A penile implant can help men even when other treatment options are ineffective.

From the moment I entered the doors to the office, I felt welcomed, cared for, and completely at ease. Dr. Alex Shteynshlyugerhas gone above and beyond to be sure that my complete health and wellness have been made first priority.He is extremely knowledgable and personable. I never was made to wait. And if ever I needed to contact him or his staff, they were super speedy in responding by my inquiries. The office is inviting and his beautiful staff members are friendly and helpful in every way. I feel very comfortable in his care and would recommend him to anyone who needs a doctor. Larry Keshinover - December 11, 2023

100% perfect circumcision
by on Jan 21, 2021

Dr. Shteynshlyuger did what I would call an 100% perfect circumcision on me. I can’t even find my scar. He cut the precise right amount of skin. I now feel extremely happy, confident, and proud of how it looks. I am 100% satisfied with my results and I would recommend him to any guy seeking an adult circumcision. I healed in 5.5 weeks but his recommendation is 6 weeks to heal so that means zero “activity” for 6 weeks to avoid damaging the stitching. The surgical glue I pulled off at 5.5 weeks. It is important to not remove it before! The lower posterior of my shaft did not look good at first, especially w/ the surgical glue on it, but over weeks it looked better and better w/ the final results by 5.5-6 weeks being excellent When the doctor injected the anesthetic, it was painful since he must inject it deep ~6-8times. During the surgery my discomfort was maybe a 1/10, so tolerable. Make sure to buy lots of bandages/gauze before/after for daily change for 5-6 weeks

finally able to enjoy life again
by on Dec 16, 2020

Dr. Alex absolutely changed my life and restored my faith in doctors. When my condition first started I saw four different urologists over a period of about 6 months. All four either laughed me out of their office saying there’s nothing they could do to help, that my pain was normal, or prescribed me something that did not help or made everything worse. I prepared to live my life (22 years old now) with chronic pain that made participating in every day activities extremely difficult. Finally after getting the courage to start looking for new doctors again I found Dr. Alex Shteynshlyuger and decided to give his office a call. I proceeded to see him shortly after my call, and now a few visits and months later I am finally able to enjoy life again. Dr. Alex took the time to do the tests that other doctors did not even mention. He took different approaches, gave well explained answers to all of my questions, and made me feel like there are some doctors who really do care. On top of all of that he has some of the most helpful and kind staff I have come across. I cannot stress enough how thankful I am for Dr. Alex!

No pain at all

I would highly recommend it to anyone
by on Oct 11, 2020

I saw the reviews about this place and was very hesitant to go but something was telling me to go with them and I don't regret it at all, the doctor did a great job and helped me understand the process plus the staff was amazing I would highly recommend it to anyone! quick story after the procedure I was in soo much pain and called the office on a SUNDAY, the doctor gave me a call back within 15 minutes and prescribed a stronger medication, to me that meant a lot for the doctor to take time from his day on a Sunday to help me.

highly qualified diagnostician
by on Sep 23, 2020

I have been observed by Dr. Alex for many years and I must say that he is a highly qualified diagnostician, and also several times I have received qualified microsurgical assistance and very useful advice. The only reason I put 4 with a plus is a somewhat long wait for the reception.

Shang Ring circumcision
by on Oct 29, 2019

Overall, it was a good experience. Dr. Shteynshlyuger (Dr. Alex) was very nice, warm and helpful. He performed a Shang Ring circumcision for me and the procedure went well. I'm pleased with the results and there were no complications. If anyone is interested in the shang ring circumcision in the tristate area, then I'd recommend him. The whole procedure is $1850, which includes the initial consultation (provided that ther are no complications) and every follow up visit up to six months.

Care at NY Urology Specialists
by on Jul 06, 2019

I am a 54 year-old male who is extremely happy with my care at New York Urology Specialists. I came to see Dr. Alex out of near desperation after consulting with three other urologists. Literally over one night, I began experiencing severe penile pain and burning. None of the other urologists were able to help diagnose what my problem was and seemingly didn't take my problem very seriously. In fact, one of them specifically told me at it had nothing to do with my prostate. After 6 weeks of suffering, I saw Dr. Alex. He examined me and gave me some tests and lab work. He very quickly ascertained that my problem was due to an enlarged prostate. He proscribed medicine to deal with my pain in the short-term and keep my prostate size in check over the long-term. My problem quickly disappeared. Today, 5 years later, I feel great. Dr, Alex listens to you as a patient, takes your opinion and health concerns seriously and knows his field inside-and-out so that you can get proper treatment for your problem. I can't thank him enough for diagnosing and solving my malady - you sometimes can't appreciate a problem until you have it. Getting rid of it and getting back to normal is so important - I am so glad that I saw Dr. Alex for my problem.

Highly grateful
by on Jun 18, 2019

Dr. Shteynshlyuger is a very patient, understanding and caring doctor. I came to take opinion on my father’s treatment going on in my home country. Highly satisfied from his responses. He even responded to so many of my queries through patient portal . Highly grateful.

by on Mar 17, 2019

Overall, I am happy with the services provided by Dr. Alex and his office staff. They are second to none when regarding follow-ups and getting back to you promptly, which is definitely not always the case with specialists. Furthermore, living abroad, he has offered to continue to treat me via skype and through email, which has been hugely helpful considering the medical care where I live is not as comprehensive as in the United States.

Hello, I wanted to simply thank you for your help. My condition has improved. I saw my regular Urologist yesterday and he agreed with everything you said. I am most appreciative of the speed and efficiency with which I was able to see you. I will be using the cream for another 2-3 weeks and hopefully that will be the end of my trouble. However, if not you can be assured that I will visit your practice again. Thank you for seeing me yesterday. In many ways my mind was put at ease. The operation is very efficient and professional.

Good Dr. who cares about his patients
by on Aug 18, 2017

Received circumcision from Dr. Shteynshlyuger. Dr. Shteynshlyuger is a very good specialist who cares for his patients. He was always concerned with my physical and mental comfort prior, during and post-operation. Dr. Alex is very thorough in his work to assess any problems and provide the necessary solution. Being that he has recently moved to a new location, this may afford for speedier appointments and easier flow of patients in and out. In addition, more personal space for waiting patients. If there was any con, it would be, the lack of space at his prior office and being able to see his patients at the appointed time, but a necessary sacrifice for good, careful work. I would recommend him as a very good doctor.

No scalpel vasectomy

I can't imagine a vasectomy procedure going more smoothly. I was playing tennis 5 days later.
