Yes, your psychiatric medications can indeed cause or worsen erectile dysfunction and loss of sensation. SSRIs like paroxetine and fluvoxamine, alongside olanzapine, are well-known to cause these side effects. Fortunately, there are safer alternatives. For anxiety, your doctor might consider switching to medications with a lower risk of sexual side effects, such as buspirone, vilazodone, or vortioxetine. Sometimes, adding bupropion can also help counteract these effects. Please do not stop or change your medications without consulting your prescribing doctor, as they can help you safely transition to alternatives that manage both your anxiety and sexual health effectively.
