Hi,
I take neurotin and haven't noticed any sexual
side effects. Of course, ;like the last poster,
I take an antidepressant (prozac) which effects
my sex drive. However I didn't notice things getting
any WORSE when I added the neurotin. I just recently
increased the dose and noticed that things got worse.
But I also started using progesterone cream which
I wonder if that might be the culprit. I'm not sure.
Taking the progesterone cream and increasing the
neurotin happened at the same time. I wouldn't have
even suspected the progesterone cream (in fact I started
taking it to INCREASE my sex drive), but a co-worker
told me that her doctor put her on progesterone HRT
and she couldn't have an orgasm to save her life.
Now I'm feeling the same way. Prozac effected my
sexuality, but I could still have an orgasm---Now I can't.
I was hoping more people would respond to your post
so I would have more data to go by as far as
neurotin vs. progesterone cream that's causing this
trouble.
Sorry this isn't real helpful. If you find anything
out, let me know.
