> Mariposa...You said that you didnt have any s/e with increasing....How long did it take for you to feel the effects if they were positive...You also said that you had been on the lexapro for 15 months...have you had problems with your period for the whole six months or just recently..I have upped my dosage to 15mgs and it has been a week i have been on the lex 10mgs for hmmmm maybe 3 months and still waiting to see if this going to work for me ....and still very discouraged...Thanks for your input..Mystic
Felt positive effects within a few days. The problems around period vary from month to month, but each time that I've had consectively worse problems for 3 months, my pdoc increased my dose. I think I agree w/trucker in that 5mg increases did NOT work for me, I went from 20 to 25 with no improvement for 3 months, and bumped up to 30 in March. Now I'm having trouble this month! But I also have switched from taking Yasmin to the patch (in Jan.) so not sure if that has something to do with it as well.
Hope this helps!~~~8|8
