While Placida (which contains flupentixol and melitracen) and SSRIs can sometimes cause sexual side effects like a lower sex drive, they do not typically cause a drastic drop in your testosterone levels. Often, the underlying stress or anxiety itself can also affect your hormone levels and energy. Please rest assured that these symptoms are very manageable. I highly recommend discussing your concerns with your doctor.
