Effexor And Orgasms

I am 36 and have bipolar II disorder and suffered from it with major depression episodes for the past 20 years. I use Effexor 150mg and Epitec 200mg daily for 3 uninterrupted years now and I use it religiously. I'm very happy with the results and I live a normal life without problems at last! I suffer no major side effects other than inability to have orgasms during sex. Is there any way around this problem or anything I can use to help? I don't want to change my meds, obviously cos it works for me. Please can you advise? Thank you.

Antidepressants are well known for causing sexual dysfunction.

Have you spoken to your doctor about it? They would probably have a better idea of how to help you.
