Diabetes & Sexual Dysfunction Posted: 07-07-05 08:24am
Quoted from <theclitoris.Com>
"about one third of women with diabetes
will experience an inability to achieve
orgasm as the result of nerve damage 4 to
6 years after diagnosis. Unfortunately
the nerve damage is permanent. Source:
masters and johnson on sex and human
loving page 512."
a pretty scary thing to have to look
forward to. Normally, there's never a
problem in this area, but, I had some
difficulty reaching orgasm for a few
months before I was diagnosed with
borderline diabetes in 1997. Thank
goodness it cleared up after I got my diet
under control. Could it happen again and
become permanent if my diabetes gets
worse? Could this happen to men, too? My
husband was diagnosed with type 2 a year
or so ago and is on medication, but,
dosen't seem to have any problem there
either, yet.
Anyone have any experience with this or
know more about it?
