Struggling with Low Libido on Effexor XR

My partner actually appreciates it, because he just has low libido to began with but I've been on effectxor six years so I think after awhile the side effects become less noticeable. Though if I miss a dose suddenly become a annoying nymph to my boyfriend.

Lube and informing your partner. Not that uncommon these days. But a MAJOR bummer.

Ah, yes Effexor is the nut kill. Lol I think exercising, maybe walking or running if you can would be the good place to start just to keep the heart pumping and blood flowing. Even doing some yoga stances. Obviously stay hydrated and eat fruits. Effexor is known to lower your blood pressure because it’s also for nerve pain. So you can only imagine it do be numbing some important nerves. Been on it for 5 years and that’s what’s I’ve always noticed. I would let the person know that you want to take things slow and see how it goes possibly change up your environment. Also there is so many other ways to have without having to force yourself to ya know.

well i just tell my sexual partner that i am taking medication that cause low libido so they don’t think they are doing anything wrong
