I know I am bumping an old thread here, but I have some concerns similar to the OP, plus some additional ones. I am suffering some side effects from Lunesta use as well. It started like this. About a year ago, I took Lunesta for a few weeks(3 mg's). I began to suffer a total loss of libido. I didn't connect the Lunesta and Libido issues at the time. In any event, I stopped taking the Lunesta simply because I was done with school for the time being and didnt need it. A few months ago, I started taking Lunesta(3 mg's) every night to help me sleep, since I again got stressed out because of schoolwork etc.. My workouts were suffering before I took the pill since i was always exhausted etc.. In any event, about 3 months of taking Lunesta nightly, has caused my libido to totally disappear. I am 24 years old, in good shape(been working out for a few years) so I am kind of pissed that my once strong libido, is now gone. It's been over 3 months since I took a Lunesta and I am certainly not recovered. I am almost 100% that my problem relates to my Lunesta use. The only 2 times in my life where my libido has been shot is after taking Lunesta for some time. In my first stint with Lunesta, I only took it for about a month and when I stopped, a week or two later, my libido returned. This time it's not returning. I can still get it up, but I have no sex drive. It sucks. I was going to do my first cycle, but obviously I dont want to do that until this gets cleared up. I have been making progress in the gym so I doubt the Lunesta caused the libido issues by lowering my test levels. Is there another pathway that it can cause these problems? I am really hoping someone can help me.
Thanks a ton.
Also, I know this is a weird first post, and it's probably not even in the right section. Its just I noticed this thread on Lunesta and posted here instead of starting a new topic.
