I've been on medication (daxid - 300 mg) for ocd for last 14 years. Does it have any impact on conjugal life?

Daxid medicine sometimes causes sexual problems and are seen with weeks to months of starting the medicine. If you have taken the medicine for quite a long time and you are not having any problem, it is very unlikely to impact your conjugal life.

Dear lybrate-user, it is not the question of whether daxid has impact or not on conjugal life. It is whether you have any issue with conjugal life? If yes, whether daxid is the only reason for it or any other cause could be identified and treated. If you stop daxid, whether you have any other treatment for ocd?

It might cause erectile dysfunction in some cases but it is usually temporary and gets relieved on its own. So there is nothing to worry about it. Taking medicine and completing course is more important for dysfunction, you can understand sexual therapy and apply it.
