Brief Answer: Yes. Detailed Answer: Hello, Thanks for trusting us with your health concern. TRANXENE is a benzodiazepine. The common side effects listed with this medicine include muscle twitching, tremor or problems with urination and orgasm. It can also cause confusion, unusual thoughts or behavior and depressed mood. The difficulty in orgasm that you have is due to this medicine. This can decrease after continuous use of this medicine as tolerance can develop over time. Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have. Wishing you good health. Regards. Dr. Rakhi Tayal.

I am also 50 and have not had a period in 3 months, could this also be causing this. I just started the tranxene about a month ago and that is when I started having this problem, so I think that it is causing it. How long will I have to be off of it to notice a difference? I have stopped taking it 4 days ago. I will follow up with my dr if I need to.

Brief Answer: Will improve in 2 weeks. Detailed Answer: Hello. Thanks for writing again. The change that you have could be due to menopause also. Now that you have stopped taking the medicine you should notice a difference in next two weeks. Hope my answer is helpful. Do accept my answer in case there are no further queries. Regards.
