Diabetes is a metabolic disease caused by complicated factors, and its damage to the male reproductive system is threatening men's health. This article reviews the pathophysiological changes in the diabetes-damaged male reproductive system and the mechanism of these changes. Oxidative stress induced by hyperglycemia plays an important role in working damage to the reproductive system of diabetic males, for which some anti-oxidative substances may prove to be an effective cure.
