Antidepressants drugs reduce sperm count
Antidepressant drug use could severely lower men’s sperm counts, according to a case report presented at yesterday’s American Society for Reproductive Medicine conference in New Orleans. Dr. Peter Schlegel of the Cornell Medical Center in New York, along with a colleague, recently treated two men for infertility and found when both patients stopped taking their prescription antidepressant medications - selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) - their sperm counts dramatically increased.
