Not feeling pleasure during orgasm can be distressing, but it is a common and treatable problem. In your case, the most likely cause is your medication, especially Flunil (fluoxetine), which belongs to a group of antidepressants (SSRIs) known to sometimes reduce sexual desire and pleasure or delay orgasm. Your underlying conditions, like Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder and social anxiety, can also contribute by increasing stress, overthinking, or performance anxiety during intimacy. The best step is to discuss this openly with your doctor and do not stop the medicine on your own. Your doctor may adjust the dose, change to another medicine with fewer sexual side effects, or suggest timing strategies. Along with this, reducing anxiety through relaxation techniques, improving communication with your partner, and sometimes counselling or sex therapy can help improve your experience. In most cases, once the cause is identified and managed, sexual function improves gradually.
