    SORRY TO BE THE BEARER OF BAD NEWS BUT IT IS A COMMON SIDE EFFECT.

    I SUFFERED WITH THIS WHEN ON 20 MG AND WHEN I REDUCED TO 10MG I HOPED IT MIGHT GET BETTER BUT IT DIDN'T.

    I STILL ENJOY A GOOD SEX LIFE BUT IT CAN BE FRUSTRATIN TO BE ON THE BRINK OF AN ORGASM BUT NEVER BLOODY GETTING THERE!!

    I AM FEMALE TOO AND LUCKILY MY PARTNER UNDERSTANDS - HE ACTUALLY THINKS ITS GREAT THAT HE CAN BE AS SELFISH AS HE WANTS IN BED NOW!!!

    Yup.......been there. I've been on citalopram for a year and it's been a side effect all through. Sorry to say. I'm getting better and back down to 10mg and they're back with a vengence, YAY. Stick with the pills they really help and the sacrifice is small compared to how you could feel without them..........................well lets not go there!
