Diabetes-related impotence in the elderly

E D Whitehead et al. Clin Geriatr Med. 1990 Nov.

Abstract

Because many elderly men with chronic illnesses such as diabetes have multiple causes contributing to their impotence and may still retain an interest in sexual activity, those who still are unable to adequately perform sexually after treatment of their medical problems should be informed of the alternative methods of treatment of their impotence or alternative methods of sexual fulfillment and gratification and, when necessary, should be offered supportive counseling and psychotherapy.
