In reply to Sexual side effects?? Re: Celexa and side effects?, posted by Rachel on December 28, 1999, at 10:54:35
> hi, i'm 21 and in college... i just started taking celexa last week after a battery of other anti-depressants. i read the stats for sexual side effects in men (6% problems with ejaculation, 3% impotence) but i can't find any for women. i already have 'problems' having an orgasm -- something i am starting to think really contributes to my depression at times, and my main concern is whether i will be experiencing sexual side effects from celexa.
> it really pisses me off that there isn't some drug yet that doesn't interfere with your sex drive. Basically, i'm looking for some advice from other women. Thanks.Rachel, I've tried Prozac, Serzone, Luvox, Zoloft, and now Effexor. I had trouble with desire, arousal, and reaching orgasm with Prozac, Luvox, and Zoloft, but no problem with Serzone and none (so far!) with Effexor. The SSRI's are infamous for sexual dysfunction. Serzone and Effexor are newer non SSRI type antidepressants. Hope this helps.--Cindy W
