Yes they do , antidepressant's take away the desire to have sex, they take away the pleasure of making love, depending on your dosage the side effects will vary, but no matter how low your dosage is you are still going to have a noticeable decrease in your sex drive, I do not take antidepressant's anymore, and I also stopped birth control because they both had horrible effects on me sexually. You know something isn't right when a medication that is suppose to make you love life and be happy makes you dislike sexual contact and pleasure, by the way, for females the sexual side effects are much worse. Please reconsider taking those meds, they make them out to be great when they are actually making people attempt suicide or achieve it much faster then the disease its self does. Their are other ways of coping , counseling and support groups, and many many other things out there, this is coming from someone who has tried so many of those medications and ended up in the mental hospital because of them, their are a lot of ways to deal with depression, drugs are not your only option , good luck to you

Yes.  Your body uses slightly different hormones for sex as it does for building muscle.  Having sex will shift the hormones away from those that build muscle to those that make babies.

It can be a side effect of the pill, they do simulate hormones and when you go messing with hormones you can kill you sex drive i was on the pill for 7 years (several different ones) and i had hardly any sex drive the whole time

high protein and high carb diets naturally increase your sex drive......cashew nuts are a good source, as is tuna. having a healthy exercise regime will also stimulate your sex drive.

Hello,\n\n  I have taken many anti-dep and have taken along time to find one that fits all my needs. I had a really hard time sexually when on prozac and zoloft, etc. I let my new doc know the problem was affecting my life and he suggested Wellbutrin. So I take a smaller dose of lexapro for the depression because you can only take so much wellbutrin. Then I take a dosage of Wellbutrin to help take the sexual side affects away, which also helps with depression. That changed my life taking both drugs together!!! Been taken them for over 4 yrs. now and I thank my doc all the time! My sex drive is actually usually in over drive now :)

No you just have a healthy libido...or an overactive sex drive...one or the other.

The peak of my sex drive came during menopause - I just couldn't keep my hands off my husband. It may eventually fade, but menopause sure brought a spike for me. It has eased off a little since I finished "the change," but it's still very strong.

Well, sex is primarily mental and not physical. While it is easy to blame it on the drugs, it could just be that you are not interested in your partner.  However, if you truly believe it is because of the drugs you are taking, speak with your doctor. There are many kinds of hormone treatments you can take and perhaps a different one will not have the same effect.

Do not listen to the first B*I*T*C*H  she is beeing rude!! \n  1.  if he is taking any other meds there could be a side affect in the form of low sex drive.\n  2.  ED is a real downer for a man  he could be feeling not like a "real" man.\n\nthe solution for you is to stroke his ego make him feel sexy and attractive some times in these situations that is what they are felling ( not attaractive or sexy)  \n\nask the doctor if there is side affects ot any meds that he is taking.\n\nit is not you!!!!   it his issue that needs to be uncovered.\n\nGod Bless and good luck!!!

Yes. I've heard from personal stories. Everybody's different. He may be one with low sex drive, or yours higher. Could even be psycological issues, though I don't think that is usually the case. Happy bed time!

Most anti-depressants actually decrease your sex drive, so I'm surprised you would take one to increase it.  But then well-butrin is different than other anti-depressants so I guess it's possible it can have the opposite affect.  You should start feeling a difference after 2 or 3 weeks, although it could be up to 6 weeks.  Good Luck.

A doctor that I have been seeing for other medical conditions besides anything to do with pregnancy was telling me about a study that a doctor in Penn. was doing for women who had been going to all kinds of trouble trying to get pregnant. They had tried every drug known to man out there and went to the best specialist when he decide to use Metformin a common drug used for people with diabetes. \nThis doctor even suggested the same thing for her own daughter and she was pregnant within two weeks of starting the med. So just a thought!

You need to ask your ob/gyn. What about condoms? That won't decrease your sex drive!

Monistat cream or Diflucan pill, but if you get them frequently you should try to find out why. There could be an underlying medical condition that is causing them like diabetes.  I can tell you that I used to get them alot and stopped wearing panties and rarely get them.  Also, when I was on antidepressants I got them more.   I've heard sticking a whole peeled garlic clove up there every night for a week or so, removing in the morning, helps.
