Hello all –
I've been on 75mg/day of Effexor XR for about 9 months now, and from the beginning I've had abdominal/pelvic discomfort. It seems to be getting worse, and it seems to be linked to my bowel movements - I feel some discomfort after, on the right hand side, right about where my right ovary is. I've had my ovaries checked (echography), they are fine. I'll soon go for a baryum thing (I forget the word) to check my lower intestine - :-(. Still, I find the whole thing weird... Also, sometimes it hurts after I pee, and my orgasms have been painful as well, right after I peak. It seems like something is wrong around my pelvic area, but so far my doctors have not found anything. They also tell me they've never heard of such a side effect from antidepressants.
Does anyone have the same problem? If so, was it treated? What did you do?
Thanks in advance to anyone who might have info…And hello to the people who knew me when... I hope you're doing well!
