HELP!!! Concerta/Sexual Side effects | ADHD Information

Share
Hi Jeff. That kind of thing doesn't happen too often, but it turns up occasionally. The action of stim meds is regulated by dopamine, the reward center of the brain. So is the sex drive. I never had a decrease in staying power, but my sex drive definitely changed when I went on Adderall. Does this happen while Concerta is active in your body or at night after it has worn off?

Hi everyone my name is Jeff if you couldn't tell already I am 26 years old and was diagnosed with ADHD when I was in 2nd grade. I already have an insanely high sex drive so that is not the problem, though sometimes I think it is because it is on my mind too much. Anyways, my problem is my girlfriend which I care about dearly and who is so understanding has to be frustated with me. When we have sex I can't last long at all. We both know this is a problem. And yes it has been going on pretty much only while I have been on concerta because I so have not had this problem in the past with her. So yes taking the concerta might be the problem but I need a med that will not give me these sort of side effects. I need to take some medicine for sure though because I am a financial analyst and you know need to be able to focus. I have always thought this stuff would decrease my sex drive. YEAH RIGHT. so does anybody else have this problem or some insight on my issue. Thank you for all your help!!!!!!!
