Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am diabetic suffering from ED and depression. Please advice.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

By ED do you mean erectile dysfunction or anything else? You are a male, so I pressure you to mean erectile dysfunction. The erectile dysfunction, together with the fact that you have to be on medication for your sugar control that could have been responsible for the depression that is entirely understood. The erectile dysfunction can cause d inability to have a penetrating sex.diabetes cause damages to tiny arteries which supplies the nerves, and when the nerves which carries e erectile sensation are affected, it results to a weak erection.

Kindly consult your doctor and take the treatment with consent.

  1. Ensure that your blood sugar is well controlled.
  2. You may use viagra when you want to have sex since it gives you an erection. Take it 30 minutes before action.
  3. Use Pregabalin 75 mg daily helps to relax.
  4. You can use Neuro vite (Vitamin B1, B6, B12) one tablet bd (twice daily).
  5. Use Manix one capsule b.d that will improve your libido and sexual drive, use these tablets for two months uninterrupted, and you can see the difference.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
