A member asked:

Does zoloft (sertraline) permanently lower sex drive?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: If you have decreased libido due to zoloft (sertraline) it is likely that stopping the medication will allow a return to your normal state. There may be some medication that will help increase your sex drive. Discuss this with your doctor.
