So I'm taking Lexapro and since then I haven't been able to masturbate. I've only tried twice (which isn't in character, but not unheard of) in the last month, but I soon lost interest and never finished (also rare).
I don't think it's a deal breaker, but it might be if it lasts for a prolonged period. Does anyone have experience with this and can tell me if for them did that side effect come to stay? Thanks and sorry for the odd question. __________________ my life explained in two smileys |

I am not on lexapro but am on a whole host of meds. The side effect has stayed.

it's very common with SSRI's , but it varies per person. I would talk to your doctor about it. |

Cymbalta killed my sex drive but I'm on zoloft now and having no problems thank god. Paxil gave me retrograde ejaculation but I could get an erection. SSRI's will kill your sex drive. Propranolol also gave me ED.

yeah from what i read luvox, trintellix, and vibryd are less common to mess with sexual drive, but i think it just varies per person. |
