Oh itās bc If it doesnāt work for u ur one of the people thatās plagued with the everlasting side effects that can take a year or two to go away. I wouldnāt be if I was on the pill like u but on the injection if it doesnāt work for u itās the most terrible thing in the world- most people end up despising it and telling everyone how bad it is then- kinda like a bitter divorcĆ©. Lmao so my bad just ignore me!

Hey man! Hope everything is better by now for you.
You are off the invega for 2 years and still have no sexual function??
Best,
I am happy i came here and read this form because i am dealing with the same side affects no feeling ā¦lack of sleepā¦no sex drive and i only had 2 injections ā¦i am on court order for 6 month to take meds ā¦but it definitly wont be this injection ā¦going back to risperdal anybody know if it causes the same affect as this posion.
I hate the Invega shot, it really messed up my mood, made me want to walk all the time (couldnāt sit down and concentrate), and made me gain 40 pounds. The pills arenāt as bad though.
Hi,
I hope you are doing well!
Did you have sexual dysfunction? When did the sexual problems disappear completely ?
I still have sexual dysfunction more than 6 months after, but then again I sit a lot so it kind of leads to erectile dysfunction anyways. The watery jizz problem goes away eventually though.

I donāt know how can we sex with partner without a healthy erection or even enjoy masturbating. Itās good to know that you can ejaculate semen though. Itās a good news. When were you able to ejaculate semen ? How many months it took you after drug discontinuation?
My testosterone and prolactin level are in normal level Iām just waiting to recover sexually. Itās been 1 month and 17 days and still counting the days. One urologist said I need at least 8 weeks from discontinuation in order for the sexual problems to completely disappear. I donāt know how but Iāll see.

The half-life is 25-49 days, and itāll take roughly 5 half lives to exit your system 97%. That makes it 125 to 245 days to be almost fully out.
Yea I stopped my last shot in October of ā17, so itās been about 7 months for me. Iām on my 6th half life and I feel better but I still have a feeling that thereās still one or two more half lives left in me. Iām jealous of the people that get thru it with just 5 half lives- I read online that some need up to 8ā¦ what I will say tho is that laying out in the sun does WONDERS on speeding up the breakdown of the invegaā¦

Hi guys just wondering how people are getting on after the invega shots. Has the sex drive come BK to normal for many ?
Hey does anyone else notice that they never feel tired anymore no matter what they do? Sleeping has not been the same since taking invega sustenna. I find that I literally cant sleep and when I do sleep itās only for a short amount of time and I feel like Iāve been awake the whole night. I dont get not one side effect from not sleeping like I never feel exhausted or lethargic or have the inability to focus I feel 100% normal. Itās the strangest thing. Iāve been this way for a year now. I regret ever taking this poison. My life has not been the same since and Iām also still lactating and I canāt feel cramps when I get my period. Also the hair on my body doesnāt grow. I have complete and total memory loss. No drive or motivation. No emotions. No thought process. No self esteem or confidence. I canāt even remember what I look like. I canāt meditate. I just feel completely brain dead and itās terrible. All I wanna do is stay in bed now.

Hi Liverpool,
Hope everything gets better for you.
My sex drive is zero. How is yours ?
Are you able to get a healthy erection and ejaculate semen ?
Iām 1 month and 17 days off the drug, I stopped taking any medication cause Iām concern about the side effect of them. Iām seeing another urologist in couple of days to see what he would do with my sexual issue. It seems thereās no difference if I wait more couple of months or now I should do something about the symptoms.
Hi med , Iām off it almost 2 years at this stage , everything is fine really erections are ok, itās the sex drive the toughest part I think. Mine is ok ATM but not where it was before the shot. Do u try a tesosterone booster r anything?
I donāt take any tesosterone booster coz my T is in normal range. Hope everything gets better soon.
Most things are fine nowbut it was a tough time being on invega injections alright.it took away alot of my energy alsoā¦ How u feeling in general since u stopped mind me asking, can u drink alcohol like normal ā¦
It does really take a lot of energy. Iām okay in general trying to maintain stable mood I can conversate, laugh, feel sad and happy. What concern me really and makes me angry is the sexual part. My erection is weak so is my ejaculation. Some time I ejaculate water but I guess Iām used to it now. I stopped drinking now but I remember when in my first days of the injection like 6 month ago I was able to get tipsy. When did you recover from erectile dysfunction and the watery jizz?
Ya I know how u mean , I can Converse and feel emotions and all that fine, it just feels like my body wasnāt the same after it unfortunately. But Iām not to bad. Ya the sex drivevthibg would really piss u off but u get used to it, erections not sure maybe about 7 r 8 months , sex drive still not fully there. Watery jizz does kinda half go away too after 6 r 7 months
Yes I am currently on invega sustenna and I canāt sleep for more than 30min to an hour at a time and I donāt feel tired. Itās soo weird, like having next to no sleep doesnāt affect me at all.
