A member asked:
My husband has type 2 diabetes can he bear a child?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes and no: Men don't normally give birth to children (ha ha), but seriously, having type 2 diabetes should not reduce fertility from a male standpoint. Sometimes men with vascular disease can have e.D., but that is treatable otherwise.
