> Here's one I think almost no one has heard of. My wife has been on Paxil, which caused anorgasmia. Adding Wellbutrin helped but it was still like climbing Mt. Everest. She started perimenopause and a friend suggested she take Remifemin. It is a
well standardized dose of an herb called Black Cohosh. It has been used for a long time by many to relieve menopause related symptoms. We were happy to find that it also relieved the anorgasmia far better than the Wellbutrin. She takes it once per day
and does not have to worry about its timing in relationship to intercourse. It relieved about 75-80% of the sexual dysfunction. Orgasm is routine, the climb to it is still significantly longer than pre-Paxil days, but on most occasions, quite doable.
