Diabetes itself can cause erectile dysfunction (ED) and low libido, especially when sugar levels are not well controlled, as high sugars affect nerves, blood flow, and hormones. Since your sugars are still high on Gluconorm PG-2, improving control is very important. Speak to your doctor about checking HbA1c, testosterone levels, and other risk factors, and about adjusting diabetes medicines if needed. Lifestyle changes, good sugar control, and doctor-prescribed ED treatment can significantly improve symptoms; do not self-medicate.
