Hi,
Ive been on Effexor since December last year and Ive been experiencing a decrease of libido. I go weeks without feeling sexual desire. Just when I started taking Effexor my wife and I took a one week holiday I experienced an increased libido and could make love two to three times a day during that week. Since then, my sexual life has gone down the drain. It has been very painful for both of us. I feel frustrated and my self-confidence is very low at the moment. Is this "normal"? I spoke with my doctor and she reduced the dosage to only 75mg a day and added Lexapro 10mg a day. But the problem still persists. Ive been considering Viagra or any other stimulant to boost my sexual life. Can anyone relate to what Im going through?
