Abstract

Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus (DM) can cause erectile dysfunctions. A number of studies show that erectile dysfunctions (ED) are more common in a longer period of DM. Age and HbA1c levels are related to type II DM. This study aimed to reveal the correlation between age, duration of DM, HbA1c levels, and ED in type II DM. This was a cross-sectional study of 34 male patients with type II DM conducted in PROLANIS (Program Pengelolaan Penyakit Kronis/Chronic Disease Care Program) in Harjobinangun Village, Sleman, Yogyakarta. The erectile dysfunctions were assessed using the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) questionnaire. The HbA1c levels were measured from blood samples. All obtained data were analyzed in a Chi-square analysis with a 95% confidence interval. Of the total subjects, 70.6% were aged >60 years, 61.8% have had DM for more than 6 years, 64.1% had HbA1c score >6.5%, and 44.1% were in moderate dysfunction. No correlations were found among the age (p=0.475), duration of DM (p= 0.640), HbA1c levels (p=0.611), and ED. To sum up, here was no correlation between age, duration of DM, HbA1c levels, and ED in type II DM.
