Erectile dysfunction (ED) is
the inability of a man to achieve or maintain an
erection sufficient for his
sexual needs or the needs of his partner.
Erectile dysfunction is
sometimes called as “impotence”.
The term "erectile dysfunction"
can mean the inability to achieve
erection, an inconsistent ability to do so, or the ability to
achieve only brief erections.
Men with diabetes usually face
erectile dysfunction. About 75% of diabetic men suffer from
erectile dysfunction or
impotence. The erectile
dysfunction develops earlier in diabetic men than non diabetic
men.
Erection requires a sequence
of events. Erectile dysfunction
can occur when any of the events is disturbed. Nerve impulses in
the brain, spinal column, around the penis and response in
muscles, fibrous tissues, veins and arteries in and around the
corpora cavernosa constitute this sequence of events. Injury to
any of these parts which are part of this sequence (nerves,
arteries, smooth muscles, fibrous tissue) can cause ED.

In ayurveda physiology of erection and ejaculation is described as
follows
Vrishunow basthimedram cha naabhyuuru
vankshnow gudam|
Apaanasthaanamantrasthaha shukra mootra shakrunti cha||
The “apaanavayu” one of the five types of
vayu is located in the testicles, urinary bladder, phallus,
umbilicus, thighs, groin, anus and colon. Its functions are
ejaculation of semen, voiding of
urine and stools”.
Shushruta explains the process of
erection and ejaculation as “ When a man has desire (iccha) to
have sex, his response to touch increases ( Vayu located in skin
causes flow of signals from skin to brain, thus causing sensation
of touch. Generally Vata controls the flow of signals in nervous
system.). This causes arousal or “harsha” . Arousal or Harsha
intensifies actions of vayu and at this moment highly active vayu liberates the “ teja “or heat of pitta. Thus tejas and vayu increase body temperature , heart
beat and blood flow causing
erection. “
Diabetes
damages blood vessels and nerves (neuropathy) throughout body.
When blood vessels and nerves which control
erection, are damaged, they do
not communicate properly and the blood flow to
penis tissue is impaired.
This causes erectile dysfunction.
According to ayurvedic text “ashtanga sangraha”, diabetes is caused due to
vitiation of vata. pitta, kapha and
rakta (blood). Vitiated doshas affect
almost all tissues of body in diabetes.
According to ayurveda the process of
erection occurs due to
involvement of vata, pitta and rakta . The process of
erection will be normal when
vata, pitta and rakta are in normal and balanced
condition.Vitiated vata fails to cause normal flow of signals and
arousal does not occur. Vitiated pitta and rakta fail to complete
the process of blood flow to
penis.
Simple remedies to avoid
erectile dysfunction in diabetes:
-
Mix a pinch of turmeric with juice of
embelica officinalis (Amla)
and consume this in early morning.
-
Drink triphala concoction
daily in early morning.
-
Juices of neem, guduchi (giloya) and Embelica officinalis
prove beneficial if consumed in early morning.
-
Obese patients have to exercise regularly and aim at
reducing weight.
-
Practice
yoga and meditation regularly to
keep stress level low.
