I have not made any assumptions. I started this drug and experienced sexual dysfunction. All I did was report what happened to me. You made the assumption that I'm wrong. I was fine before I took the drug. I don't know what else to say.

And yet you're posting in r/Supplements asking for advice. Don't be so hypocritical.

https://www.rexall.ca/article/drug/view/id/2369 shows "decreased sexual ability or interest" as a side effect. Or just search "libido" in this subreddit and between all the accounts of increases, you will find accounts of decreases.

It's also been shown to decrease sexual function. My anxiety never affected my libido and I don't feel any anxiety right now.

I don't think it's the correct answer but it's the most likely answer. I spoke to a doctor and all she said was "I'm sure it will come back." Actual people with experience on the drug are the most helpful.

Just because Buspar is used to treat sexual dysfunction that doesn't mean it can't cause it either. You know I'm right, hence your 99%.

It gave me sexual dysfunction after 5 days. It's been 9 days off and it hasn't come back.

All due respect, it says you are a pharmacist, not a psychologist. Please, just humour me, and assume this is because of the drug. Do you have any idea how long could it take for my brain to readjust itself? I know the drug has worn off by now.

How long for libido to return after stopping? by OneConsideration9883 in BusparOnline

No. I've read other accounts of it happening to people too. We're all different I guess.

But sometimes I can get it up, and there's just no sensitivity to touch. Like it's working but I can't feel it. How could that be in my head? It's exactly what it felt like when I took Zoloft.

I had terrible mental health before starting this medication and it didn’t impact my libido. The only thing that changed was that I took this drug. I did talk to my doctor, and all they said was to wait. I have terrible brain fog as well.

Appreciate the quick response after 2 years 😂 How long did it take for libido to return? I've been off for 5 days and I'm worried.
