Recent findings presented at the Endocrine Society's annual meeting in San Francisco reveal a concerning link between elevated blood sugar levels and men's sexual health. The research indicates that even minor increases in blood sugar can significantly affect reproductive systems and sexual functioning in aging men.
Traditionally, factors such as age and testosterone levels have been thought to primarily contribute to declining sexual health in men. However, the study led by researchers from the University Hospital in Muenster, Germany, suggests that modest increases in blood sugar, alongside other metabolic changes, play a more critical role.
Initiated in 2014, this long-term study involved 200 healthy men aged between 18 and 85, free from diabetes, heart disease, or cancer. The study concluded in 2020 with 117 participants. Throughout the research, the team monitored various parameters, including hormonal profiles, erectile function, and metabolic health, with a specific focus on BMI and blood sugar levels measured by the HbA1c test.
The findings revealed that while hormone levels and semen quality remained largely stable over time, sperm motility and erectile function showed a decline in those with slightly elevated blood sugar levels, even when these levels were below the 6.5% HbA1c threshold typically associated with diabetes. Interestingly, while testosterone levels did not directly influence erectile function, they were found to correlate with libido assessments among participants.
Researchers expressed optimism that the insights gained from this study could assist healthcare professionals and their patients in developing effective strategies to maintain male sexual health. The study underscores the importance of lifestyle choices and medical interventions in preserving reproductive health as men age.
As men's health continues to be a critical area of research, this study emphasizes the potential for individuals to take proactive steps in managing their metabolic health to safeguard their sexual and reproductive well-being.
