Erectile dysfunction
It started when I started taking antidepressants almost a year ago . I'm 16 years old and I had a negative sexual experience with my girlfriend where I couldn't get it up around when I started taking the meds. After going off the meds the problem doesn't rlly seem to be going away
Thank you for asking. I can understand the distress you are through. Erectile dysfunction problem can be a symptom of underlying depression as well. So if you have discontinued the medication, and the underlying depression problem has flared up, the problem of Erectile dysfunction can be there.
Next Steps
I would suggest you to consult with a psychiatrist for further management.
