Sertraline and sex drive

Does it ever come back??
Been on sertraline a year now and just never want it anymore. Sertraline has saved my life but taken away a big part of it. It's taking its toll on my relationship and how I feel as a woman. Any help or suggestions would, I'd be very grateful.

Hi there,
I've been on Sertraline (200mg daily) for the last 5 years. My sex drive has been non-existant and has caused a lot of grief between my husband and myself.
I'm so sorry that I don't have an answer for you, but I wanted you to know that you're not alone.
