Unfortunately, diabetes effects the ability to have sex. Most diabetic medicine causes impotence as well. Maybe he is fearful of his ability to perform or maybe it has effected his testesterone level.

diabetics many times will have damage to bloodvessels ,the walls of the blood vessels thicken and restrict blood flow over time, this causes impotence very often because the blood vesels in the penis also are effected, there are drugs that will help this, i know viagra is commonly used but from what i understand thats only good when you take it, have him go to a urologist, i think the better grug is called levitra? its specifically designed to thin the blood vessels back down and allow for natural erections, good to get started on that straight away before the damage gets too severe, you may very well find him back to being 100 percent again if you get to it quickly. good luck.
