Paxil Linked to Damaged Sperm, Could Impair Male Fertility
It is widely known some anti-depressants can affect sexual functioning in men and women. A study has found men taking paroxetine—brand names Seroxat and Paxil — can experience impaired fertility and sperm damage, says the Chicago Tribune.
The New York research revealed nearly half of the [men] taking Seroxat and Paxil tested with increased levels of sperm fragmentation,
said the Chicago Tribune, which added the study appears online today in the journal Fertility and Sterility.
It's fairly well known SSRI anti-depressants negatively impact erectile function and ejaculation. This study goes one step further, demonstrating they can cause a major increase in genetic damage to sperm,
said Dr. Peter Schlegel, the study's senior author and professor of reproductive medicine at Weill Cornell Medical College in New York, quoted the Chicago Tribune.
