> I have been on Prozac for depression for just over 12 months (20mg 5 x week). It has done wonders for me - I love it. However, the only problem i continue to have is lack of sexual DESIRE. I can still achieve orgasm, it's just the matter of being in the mood.
> My doctor has suggested testosterone injections for this. My question is whether anyone has tried this for such a problem and if I can expect good results? Also, any side effects? My doc has promised me I won't grow a beard :-)

I have the same problem you 've got. (lack of sexual desire but still capable of achieving orgasm).
I've got problems with the pill (can't take it because the estrogens and hormons in general make me more depressed)so i was wondering if having testosterone injections was a good idea....
I'm pretty sure i've heard that hormons causing depression is a commmon thing among people who have a history of depression. I think you should talk with your doctor about that ....Of course i might be wrong (hope that, because i 'd be eager to try that too).
Would you kindly let me know about that if you gather more informations about testosterone reliability?Thanks
