levothyroxine and libido
I’m female in my 20s, I just started levothyroxine a little over a week ago and still have libido but started experiencing a numb or decreased sensation feeling on my genitals, and it’s extremely hard to reach orgasm, and if I do then it’s not satisfying at all. This has never happened to me before and I haven’t changed anything else. Looking it up, it says this could happen for a short time and then go away when starting the medication, but it’s not common, and I only started it a short time ago so it wouldn’t be common to have any big effects so soon, but has anyone else experienced this and did it go away? I’m ready to stop taking it already, I refuse to take most medications due to OCD, especially antidepressants due to the side effects like this, but I was thinking this would not have those type of side effects. Anyone else?
