Depression: One of the symptoms of depression is a loss of interest or pleasure in things you used to enjoy including sex.Unfortunately, one of the side-effects of the most commonly used antidepressants is also a loss of libido and/or sexual function.Discuss the problem with the doctor treating your depression.There are options that increase libido. Hope this helps. Depression is serious and too often fatal.
