Persistent Ssri Sexual Side Effects
Posted: 05-16-05 20:21pm

For some people the sexual side effects of ssris are persistent, do not go away after quitting the drugs, and can last a long time :o .

This discussion group -

http://health.Grou ps.Yahoo.Com/group/ssrisex/

is for people with such long-term side effects, which include low libido, erectile dysfunction, absent, delayed, or dulled orgasm, emotional blunting and secondary depression :cry: .

We would like to discover the reason for this persistent dysfunction and find a cure. In some men and women, it appears as though low testosterone is a possible cause.

Disturbances in dopamine and other neurotransmitters such as acetylcholine also appear to be causative.

We discuss supplements or medications that may facilitate recovery from these conditions, and share our experiences of them, but such discussions do not constitute medical advice, and all drugs should be taken under a doctor's supervision.

If you have such persistent side effects, please join us.
