i suppose it's indecent to respond to this post being a male at least from our oriental culture or attitude i don't know your meds but risperidone is known to cause this.  can also make people lactate whether males or females. also they say topamax.

Only they don't advise depakote for young females because chances of ovarian cyst

sure your pdoc can replace it.

Vaginal dryness.  Not too uncommon with anti depressants.

Maybe a side effect of the meds. Use lube.
