Hey, s'ok...after my dosage increase, it was a couple of weeks until i noticed it was a bit easier to orgasm again...it seems like sex in general is better, probably because i'm more relaxed but orgasms aren't as great, just OK. (instead of going from 4 to a 10...i hang around 6 and 7) one thing is though, that i don't care as much, my guy prolly likes it that i don't bug him about sex as much since being on lex. i only think about sex half as much (actually about anything...cleaning, homework, my car, my parents, my hair, my weekend plans....half as much) a couple months ago i lost a bet that i would be alright with 5 days without sex, and more recently my guy and i went a week, and i didn't even realize (thats the longest in the past 11 months)!
I wouldn't worry about it too much, if you're really concerned, or its causing serious problems try talking to your doctor. In looking for the meds my doctor knows I have one major concern, and won't put me on a med if that side effect is likely. give it a chance, but if its not working out, theres alot of others that might
btw..most or all side effects on lex are "supposed" to eventually go away, i think i read. its just a matter of how long. i had nausea for a couple days, headaches for a couple weeks, and anorgasm for a few more. but i've been on it for about 2 months, and i don't think i have any anymore. other posters have had SE for longer than 2 months. i still don't feel well exactly but i really dont know
