It is living in an healthy lifestyle that we may prevent of having diabetes but if it has in your relative who has this kind of illness, then make some moves to block this kind of disease towards your body. An ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure!, as a saying goes. |

Aside from the danger to infertility, diabetes medication can actually affect libido. There are medications out there that can cause low sex drive. It's just a side effect but it can hamper your sex life and the whole baby making process. |
