Zoloft affect test production???

[72Norton]

Hey guys,

I'm new to this forum, 34 and haven't used AS before. This spring my doc put me on Zoloft. I'm an amateur roadbike racer and usually start training in Dec to be ready for the race season. I noticed a drop in my cycling abilities and sex drive after being on zoloft for about 2 months so I stopped taking it. I also softened up a little (BMI). Did Zoloft slow my T production? Are there any supplements I can take to help get it back to normal levels?

Please, do not just stop taking Zoloft or any other anti-depressant. You have got to taper off of it. I don't think it lowered your test, but it did raise your seratonin levels which will have a negative effect on your sex drive. It will also make you tired until your body gets used to it. If you still think that it is your test levels then I have heard of people having good results from a supplement called Rebound XT.

man i was on zoloft and i stopped cold turkey, after 3 days i got dizzy as hell! it didnt seem to effect my moood toooo much, but im sure it did in some way.

weird thing is i went back on it after many months thinking it would help me feel better mentally and it doesnt seem to work as well this time around.

as far as it effecting test levels i dont think it ever effected my sex drive.

I was on Zoloft for a few months.. The problem that I had was that I could not cum.. I guess it would be great for a person who had premature ejaculation.. I thought that my damn heart was going to explode before I came. I went back to my doc and he said that it was because of the seratonin increase. He then put me on Wellbutrin and since it is a dopamine re-uptake drug, different neurotransmitter, I had no issues after that...
