Brief Answer:
It is probably due to diabetes itself
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.
Impotency is known complication of poorly treated diabetes and inevitable if there is no sugar control. I feel rather than hypogonadism it is effect of persistent rise in blood sugar for last 20 years.
Hopogonadism generarly presents with loss of desire but loss of erection can occur in both hypogonadism as well as other problems associated with diabetes.
To know whether it is hypogonnadism or not we need the level of serum testosterone and SHBG level. It will be better if you can request your nearby laboratory to provide the reports of these two tests.
I hope this helps you.
If you have more questions feel free to write back to me.
Thanks and regards.
