> Did the sexual side effects worsen with prolonged use or were the side effects immediately noticable? I have been on Lexapro for 3 weeks and have noticed mild sexual side effects, just wondering what's in store.
> Thank youThe side effects started out mild (difficulty obtaining orgasm). Sex drive has not been effected at all. That's what's so frustrating about it. Can't finish the job, that's all. I don't know if your a male or female but I have read post in the past that it CAN be a problem for both sexes. Will it ever go away? I don't know. Will this happen to you? I hope not. I've never been on any other antidepressants and when doc decided to put me on one he suggested lexapro saying "the sexual side effects are supposed to be less with lexapro, than zoloft, paxil etc.)
I just don't know what to do.
Have you had any experience with any other antid's?
Thanks,
Wharf
