Patient's question:
I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes last year and have been taking Gliclazide tablets. One tablet per day, with fasting blood sugar levels around 6.5 to 7.5, and post-meal blood sugar not exceeding 8.9 after 2 hours. Experts and doctors have recently been asking what caused the decline in sexual function over the past three months. How should I deal with the decline in sexual function caused by type 2 diabetes?Doctor's answer:
Given your description, a comprehensive analysis suggests it is necessary to rule out the possibility of kidney yang deficiency. It is recommended to nourish yin and tonify the kidneys, clear the liver, and drain fire before proceeding with further diagnosis and treatment. Male diseases are prone to recurrence, requiring long-term oral medication. Additionally, for male patients, it is important to actively seek professional and reputable medical institutions for diagnosis. Treatment should be considered based on careful examination results. Furthermore, it is essential to quit smoking and drinking and pay attention to personal hygiene.
