Mr. Lybrate-user, diabetes mellitus if not well controlled, affects small and large blood vessels, leading to problems with multiple organs like eyes (retina) kidney and microvasculature of penis. The last effect does lead to erection dysfunction affecting sexual life. So it is essential to achieve a strict blood glucose control all the while. Maintaining fasting level around 100 mg, pp between 150 to 160 mg and hba1c% <6.8 is necessary, to delay or prevent long term complications. To achieve a strict sugar control following things are needed: appropriate drug treatment, regular exercise for at least 1 hour a day, maintaining near normal weight and strict diet control. You already have a bmi of almost 27 kgs/m2, (normal <23 kgs/m2). Your ideal body weight should be 70 kgs. Being over weight affects blood sugar control as excess fat increases insulin resistance.
