Zoloft side effect

[JasonPace]

Ive been lurking around here for a long time trying to firgure out how to get rid of my gynecomastia (puffy nips.) I've had it since about 8th grade when it kinda just appeared 3 months after my doctor prescribed me zoloft for OCD. With the timing of my gyno Im fairly certain the zoloft caused it.

*I'm 19 now and am weening myself off zoloft, will I see any reduction in my gyno after I get off the medication?

*Would running lectro + nolva after I'm off zoloft help reduce the size of the lumps? I dont care if they go away completely just having the size reduced would make me very very happy.

I'm tired of having the shape of my chest ruined but my puffy nipples.

additional info
-I have low BF and never have been overweight
-Non-steriod user (too young still)
-Gyno has been confirmed by Dr.

Thank you in advance!

bump...

Hope I can get some insight on above questions but...

I'm down to 1/2 dose.

Also got some letro and nolva. I'll take before and after pictures for anyone interested

Never took pictures but incase someone is looking for information I'll post my experience for reference.


I ran 2.5mg of letro for 60 days. Tapered up from .5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5. I tapered down much slower to try and reduce rebound, dropped down to 1.25mg (.5 ml) and held that for a week then tapered from there to .5mg until my bottle ran out.

My results were pretty good the gland really broke apart on both sides. The left side went from about the size of a dime to the size of a pea. The right side wasnt quite as good but still reduced a good noticable amount, I believe the right gland was bigger to begin with.

Side effects: weren't all that terrible.
-The first few weeks my joints were sore (shoulders, elbows and hips) but nothing that can't be handled.
-My sex drive did drop but I didn't get ED could still proform for my girlfriend. I just didnt have the urge to jack it 24/7 which was kinda nice more free time.
- My lifts weren't quite as strong either and my 1 rep maxs did drop a few pounds.

Over all I am fairly happy with the results helped my confidence.

You sure it's gyno and not fat? SSRi's are known to cause weight gain, be it from lowering your metabolism or mindless eating?

I've taken Zoloft for general anxiety and dont really feel that it causes gyno and I'm sensetive to gyno.

I guess it is possible though. It is known to raise prolactin levels, this is why some people get delayed ehaculation.

If the stuff your taking is working, then keep it going.

It was gyno I had the Dr. conferm this when I was younger and again this past year. He came to the determination it was just coincidence that my gyno developed around the same time as starting zoloft I was always skinny before I started lifting too never could put on weight. I did think the same thing for a long time though.


I just had gyno surgery today and the surgeon pulled out a golfball size lump from one side and alittle smaller from the other side. $4,100 and Im finally done with puffy nips, but my chest sure feels like hell now. I woke up twice once during liposucion and once when they were making the cut along the bottem of my nipple (worst pain I have ever felt)
