I have had the same problem becuase of Different Meds. Try taking DHRA. It is in the vititam asile at any Wal mart , Target, Shopko, Etc. It helps balance out Hormones and increase sex drive and after taking it for about a week, YOU WILL NOTICE THE DIFFERENCE. Helped my marriage. You have nothing to lose so try it.
Good luck to you and I hope it helps you as much as it did me!!!!!

Low libido (low sexual desire), is a very common problem for many women after childbirth or for those on birth control. It can also happen to young women or women of all ages. The cause is usually a hormonal imbalance.
There are many type of herbal supplements that can help you regain your libido. Horny Goat weed and Ginseng are good products, and there are also combination herbal supplments that work even better, I have heard that Boom is a real good one. The trick with kerbal supplements is finding the right one that works best for you because it all depends on how your body reacts to it. It may take some time and money to find the right one and once you do, I would recommend sticking with it. Here is a link to a web site that sells all kinds of herbal supplments for low libido.

It may take longer than "a while" to get back to your normal hormonal balance. If you are at about a month to 6 weeks out, and still don't feel anything, I suggest going in and getting some basic blood work from your doc to see if anything outta the ordinary is up.

i am bi polar and was on that kind of med also and it also made me lose my drive, you need to call your doctor explain to him/or her about your sex drive and if you are taking it cause of depression you dont state why your taking it... but anyways if depression, lamital doesn't have any bad effects and it doesn't even make you gain weight like zoloft and pazil often do. good luck to you... most likely your doc will change your med for you, just ask them
