Video Discription |
Why do antidepressants kill your sex drive? Sexual side effects are a common unwanted medication side effect. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter or nerve chemical that plays a role regulating your mood. But it also does affects nerves that control other parts of body. For example, you actually have more serotonin receptors in your gut than you do in your brain. That’s why nausea is a very common side effect with these medications.
Unfortunately, high serotonin levels in your brain interfere with your sexual behavior. The sexual dysfunction you can get is having little or no interest, delayed climax or inability to have an orgasm at all, erectile dysfunction and decreased sensation in your genital area.
Some studies have shown this to happen as frequent as 60-70%. That’s a lot of people affected. In this video I discuss solutions to this problem.
