Guest guest Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Hi, I have a bottle of cabergoline that I ordered earlier this year. I expected some type of positive response from this stuff, based on what I read about it. The truth is that I felt just about nothing from it. The worst part was the constipation it caused. I tried it about 4 times. I'll probably try it again, but maybe not as I've experienced a significant reversal in symptoms in my pssd in the last 6 weeks for the first time in 5 years and don't want to screw up my progress. I'm not sure I recall reading that cabergoline made any significant contributions to peoples recovery, though. I read many who theorized it should and that Dr. Goldstein prescribed it to people that went to see him. > > Hi - similar story to most on here. Prescribed Prozac for mild depression 10 years ago. After a year of taking a low starter dose I noticed dramatic drop in libido and was moved onto Effexor. I decided to come off ADs as my depression seemed to have completely gone. The PSSD has continued to this day, 10 years later, with only some improvement. > > However, I have been seeing a specialist doctor who after a few consultations has recommended Cabetgoline. Has anyone here had experience of this medication? I have found some positive references on google searches that suggest it could reverse the effects of ADs. Grateful for any views, advice or experiences? > Thanks > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 HiI have recently taken a bloodtest and it turned out that my prolactine is high (I'm a woman) Cabergoline was prescribed for me ( which is not only a cure for high prolactine but also a dopamine agonist) I'm still hesitating to start taking it. But it's interesting that maybe there is a connection.. To: SSRIsex Sent: Wednesday, June 6, 2012 5:35 PM Subject: Re: Cabergoline as a reversal to pssd?
