Not only has it NOT decreased my libido, but the positive effects of 3 1/2 weeks on this med has helped me so much that the 'intimate' aspect of my marriage has become much more comfortable and 'wanted'. I think a healthy sense of self is the main reason for this; I'm much calmer and therefore less agitated in all areas of my day to day life now.I am brand new at this posting thing. I forgot to tell you thanks! And wish you continued success with this. M
