Zoloft & ED

Posted by Tim on January 16, 2000, at 21:52:39

Sorry to be so blunt, but I havent seen a good answer to this question anywhere else. I have tried several SSRI's over the past 15 months: Zoloft, celexa, welbutrin, buspar, serzone, and remeron. All have cause various side effects or had minimal effect. Now I'm back with zoloft because it provides the best coverage for my depression and irratibility. First time I tried Zoloft I stopped at 75mg. It covered well, but I stopped due to sexual side effects. After all the other I have returned to Zoloft. I had to got to 100mg to get same effect and the sexual effects are the same.

Basically, I have a greatly decreased sex drive, erections are not as rigid, sensation in the penis is greatly reduced, orgasm is very difficult to reach, and when i do have an orgasm it is very "mild" with very little semen.

I also have noticed difficulty in starting to urinate. It feels like I have less contol of my PC muscles. Again, sorry to be so blunt, but I am very frustrated. I like the mood effects of Zoloft and the increased enjoyment of life. However, my girlfriend and I used to have a very fulfiling sex life and we miss it. I'm only 30 and it seems a bit early in life to havce to deal with these problems. Any help would be appriciated.
