Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease and a public health challenge worldwide, associated with numerous complications, including genitourinary infections and sexual dysfunction in women, particularly in menopause. The vaginal microbiome, which comprises beneficial and pathogenic bacteria, their genomes, and the surrounding environment, plays a crucial role in maintaining genitourinary health. Chronic hyperglycemia disrupts immune functions, exacerbates oxidative stress, and alters the vaginal microbiome, increasing the risk of genitourinary infections. Recent advances in microbial analysis, including 16S rRNA sequencing, have provided insights into the complex composition of the vaginal microbiome and its dysbiosis in diabetes mellitus. Some glucose-lowering drugs, such as sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, may increase the risk of genitourinary infections. Additionally, psychological distress, hormonal imbalances, and diabetes-related genitourinary symptoms contribute to sexual dysfunction in diabetic women. Healthcare for diabetic women requires a multidisciplinary approach, including not only glycemic control but also vaginal and sexual health assessment. A holistic approach is essential to advance personalized strategies, including medications and psychological support.
