Do ADs effect your ability to orgasm?

Sorry I’m not sure if I’ve posted in the right place..
Have been on sertraline for about a month now. It’s working absolute wonders apart from one thing... it’s really hard to reach orgasm.
I noticed when mucking around with DH last week, he was trying for near on 20 minutes and I just told him to stop in the end. So I thought I would see if this was a one time thing and thought I would test this ‘alone’.. what normally takes about 5 minutes took a good half an hour and I nearly gave up in the end through sheer frustration...
Is this a common side effect anyone else has to experienced? Will this pass or is this something I have to put up with now? (I guess it’s a small price to pay for the horrible thoughts I was having pre-sertraline)
Again, sorry if this is the wrong place for this. (MN admins you can delete if you wish)

Sertraline did that to me at times. It didn’t last though
