What is it about?

The management of diabetes goes through the education but also the management of acute and chronic complications. Among the complications, erectile dysfunction are too often forgotten as they actually affect the quality of life. The repercussions of this complication incite the clinician to look for it among the other complications of diabetes. The aim of our study is to evaluate the prevalence of erectile dysfunction in a diabetic population and to evaluate its clinical severity.

Why is it important?

In addition to the high prevalence of erectile dysfunction in diabetics, this study also shows that it is important to rate the degree of severity of the dysfunction to better match the treatment. This is why erectile difficulties must be systematically detected at least annually, in the same way as another complication.
