Diabetes can have an effect on sexual activity affecting both men and women, since diabetes effects the vessels and nerve systems involving normal function of the penis leading to various forms of sexual dysfunction.

Understanding Erection

With either mental or physical stimulation, your brain signals the nerve ending in the penis to release nitric oxide. Nitric oxide relaxes or dilates blood vessels, enabling them to open up and bringing more blood to the penis and helping to create an erection.

Sexual dysfunction occurs when a complication of diabetics resulting from poor blood sugar control, damages the nerves of the penis or there is plague building up in the arteries that feed blood into the penis causing vessels in the penis to be partially blocked preventing enough blood from getting into the penis.

To avoid sexual dysfunction, diabetics should actively work with their dietitian or nutritionist to create a healthy meal plan that is designed only for them. Delaying this step might cause high levels of glucose in the blood stream, resulting in high blood pressure and high cholesterol levels as well as clogging up arteries and causing heart disease.This leads to blood vessels in the penis to be partially blocked causing sexual dysfunction.

Here are some natural remedies that will help to increase circulation of blood in your body:

1. Mistletoe extract or tea stimulates circulation and lower pressure of blood.
2. Ginkgo biloba aids small blood vessel circulation.
3. Arjuna is an Ayurvedic herb for improving circulation of blood and high blood pressure

You can buy these natural remedies at your local health food store. Be sure to read the recommended dosage.
