Läkartidningen: Sexual dysfunction after SSRI discontinuation must be considered

The Swedish article “Sexual dysfunction after SSRI discontinuation must be considered” by André Marx discusses how PSSD goes underreported due to the fact that patients are not asked if sexual dysfunction has persisted after treatment. Despite the fact that PSSD was acknowledged by the EMA, it has not been given a formal ICD and has not been recognized as a diagnosis. Considering how troublesome PSSD is for patients, the author explains how strange it is that much of the population is on these drugs and nobody is being warned about the potential to lose their sexuality forever.
