What the experts say
DR. ANTONEI CSOKA
Biogerontologist, Associate Professor in the Department of Anatomy at Howard University
“Post-SSRI Sexual Dysfunction (PSSD) and related disorders such as Post-Finasteride Syndrome (PFS) likely represent types of iatrogenic epigenetic damage previously unseen in human history. On the individual level the consequences are catastrophic, and there may be population-level effects as well. Increasing our knowledge and understanding of these increasingly-prevalent disorders is paramount.”

“Despite the current efforts, more work is still needed to advance the understanding of PSSD in terms of diagnostic markers and therapeutic strategies.”

“Once PSSD symptoms begin they can last for years and may even be permanent in some people.” … “Despite the public recognition of this condition by major government health authorities, the condition is still under recognized by the medical community.”

Patient Spotlight
In an attempt to tackle the considerable stigma associated with PSSD, we will be placing the spotlight onto brave sufferers who are courageously telling their personal stories of what it’s like to have PSSD.
We want to keep you involved as much as we can.
To facilitate this, we will continue to post quarterly updates on our efforts and achievements.
