Hey rculater.
I don't know of anyone personally, but I know it doesn't just cause infertility - there was a study published last year showing Paxil for example causes DNA fragmentation in sperm, which carries increased risk of birth defects and miscarriage as well as lowering the chance of successful fertilization. But the study had some limitations - the drug was given to healthy volunteers only for 5 weeks. Maybe things stabilize after longer term use. But that study definitely suggests it might be something important to consider.
