rTMS is a non-invasive treatment that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain. It has been shown to be effective in reducing symptoms of OCD in some patients, particularly those who have not responded well to other treatments, such as medication or therapy. However, not all patients with OCD will necessarily benefit from rTMS, and it is generally recommended as a second-line treatment for those who have not responded to other approaches. If you are currently taking medication for OCD and it is not effectively managing your symptoms, you may want to speak with your psychiatrist or mental health provider about the possibility of trying rTMS. They can help you determine whether you are a good candidate for the treatment and whether it may be beneficial for you based on your individual symptoms and medical history. It's important to note that rTMS is not a first-line treatment for OCD and should only be considered after other approaches have been tried and proven ineffective.
