SSRI or TCA induced anorgasmia:
Gingko Biloba can help with sexual dysfunction in SSRIs, in particular Prozac.
91% of women and 76% of men reported success. Ginkgo improved all four phases of the sexual response cycle: desire, excitement (lubrication and erection), orgasm, and resolution (afterglow).
The dose range was 60mg daily to 120mg twice daily, but averaged 209mg per day. The more common side effects included headache, feeling wired, and intestinal distress.dove
