I've read threads dating back to 2011 regarding this med but I have yet to find the answers I seek. So I joined healingwell specifically to ask this question:
For any of the Nucynta users who have experienced decreased libido... have you found ANY solutions to decrease or remediate this side effect? Honestly Nucynta has changed my life, my pain has literally vanished when I take it as prescribed. However, the negative decrease of libido is severely affecting my relationship and I need to figure out how to fix this issue. I stopped taking Nucynta for two days and voila, my libido and performance were just like they used to be. Went back on Nucynta and feel less desire and can't almost not perform (I'm male if that makes any difference).
I'm open to herbal supplements, adding meds (Viagra/Cialis/etc) - I'd just like to here from someone who's gone through this and found out what actually worked rather than go down the path of "try this, try that".
I sincerely appreciate any responses and appreciate the knowledge I've already gleaned from this forum.
Thank you.
