Sexual dysfunction is more common in women with diabetes than in women without diabetes. The aim of the study was to determine sexual function and the level of the quality of sex life in premenopausal women with controlled, uncomplicated type 1 and type 2 diabetes taking into account the stages of the menstrual cycle and mood level. The study included 163 women with type 1 and type 2 diabetes and 115 controls without diabetes. Questionnaire studies were conducted using the following surveys: Demographic and Clinical Data Survey, Female Sexual Function Index, Sexual Quality of Life—Female, and Beck Depression Inventory. Both phases of the menstrual cycle—follicular and luteal—were included. It was shown that, in women with type 1 diabetes, sexual function decreased during the luteal phase in comparison with the follicular phase (p < 0.001). In the women with type 2 diabetes and in the controls, sexual function was comparable during both phases of the cycle (p > 0.05). In the women with uncomplicated controlled type 1 diabetes, sexual function and the sexual and relationship satisfaction changed depending on the phase of the menstrual cycle with a decrease during the luteal phase. Sexual function and the quality of the sex life of premenopausal women with controlled type 2 diabetes were comparable during both the follicular and the luteal phases. Sexual function in menstruating women with controlled type 2 diabetes decreased with age and a worsening mood.

Introduction: Endocrine disorders are one of the causes of infertility and sexual dysfunction is one of the neurological complications of diabetes. Objectives: The present study investigated the relationship between sexual function and type 2 diabetes in infertile men referring to the Royan Institute in 2019. Patients and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in 2019 on 150 non-diabetic infertile men and 126 diabetic infertile men who referred to the Royan institute and were qualified in terms of research inclusion criteria. The convenience sampling method was used. The tools used to collect data include a demographic checklist, an 11-item version of Sexual Quality of Life-Male (SQOL-M), and a 15-question International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) Questionnaire. Results: A total of 276 people were evaluated in this study. The mean age of participants was 40.98 (7.44) years in the diabetic group and 35.2 (6.08) years in the non-diabetic group. Sexual function, failure to reach ultimate pleasure, sexual desire, satisfactory sexual intercourse, overall sexual satisfaction, erectile function, as well as the standard index of sexual quality of life (SQOL-M score) showed no statistically significant difference between diabetic and non-diabetic infertile men (P> 0.05). In people with normal body mass index (BMI) and employees, the relationship between diabetes and the overall score of sexual function was statistically significant (P< 0.05). In addition, there is a significant relationship between diabetes and the SQOL-M in people under 37 years of age and people with primary infertility (P< 0.05). Conclusion: Age and BMI are the two main factors influencing sexual function. In the present study, statistical relationship of these two factors in two groups of diabetics and non-diabetic infertile men not in general but in subgroups was proved. Our investigation indicated no statistically significant relationship between the two groups of diabetic and non-diabetic infertile men in any of the factors of sexual function and the standard index of male quality of sexual life.
