health care professional that I would want to see regarding this?View Thread

I am a 39 year old male who is diagnosed with anxiety disorder, bi-polar disorder, and OCD. I also have low testosterone Levels. For a while, I have been experiencing lack of sex drive, erections, etc... About 1 year ago, I began to receive injections of testosterone (every 3 weeks). In recently taking 40 mg daily of paxil i had a full erection and sex drive, along with normal ejaculation. The problem is, paxil caused me to maintain and gain weight. I recently got back in to shape and switched to lexapro (because I dont want to gain weight). Needless to say, I no longer have the sex drive and erections that I had recently. My doctor has no real answers and keeps having me try different medications. What could be causing this and is there a simpler answer?
Secondly, what is the relation of Serotonin to Sex Drive?View Thread
