Hii can I take testoviron injection while on antidepressant? Although my prolactin level is increased. Ayurvedic treatment like ashwagandha is not working on combination with antidepressant.

Dear lybrate-user, please inform what is the antidepressant and what dose. Please let me know whether testoviron is prescribed by a doctor. If so, what dose and most importantly, for what reason it is prescribed. Depression itself may cause sexual problems. Many antidepressant cause sexual side effects. So your sexual problem needs to be assessed properly by your psychiatrist.

Hi lybrate-user, testoviron injection is indicated only for persons with low testosterone levels. If you are planning to take it just to increase sexual performance in general then it is not advisable. Probably you are experiencing sexual dysfunction secondary to antidepressant or antipsychotic medicine use as you have mentioned increased prolactin level which is common with use of antipsychotic medications. In that case you need to consult a nearby psychiatrist in-person and discuss regarding alternative medicines with lesser sexual side effects. Still, you have sexual dysfunction persisting, there are appropriate medications to manage antidepressant or antipsychotic induced sexual dysfunction rather than self-medicating with testosterone injection.
