Change birth control pills . Lots of prescibe meds have that effect , Iv'e known many people who have said the same thing . It's not you its the pills . Good Luck : )

No it's not usual. Tell your doctor. There are many different vitamins out there that can pick up your sex drive again. Find a health food store and just browse, looking for labels that talk about vitamins to improve stamina and libido...etc. They are worth it! In the mean time, you might need to change birth control...are you taking the pill? Not good for you! Diaphragms are better and won't change your body chemistry. just keep telling yourself how HOT you are and how much you want it. By an erotic book, watch an erotic show on cable late at night, tell your husband that you need him to carress you, kiss you, tickle and tease you, and make you beg for it. You're missing too much!

Its the birthcontrol, its a side effect of the birth control. This happen to me, I was one ortho tri cyclen low for about a hour and half and my sex drive was gone! I stopped taking it in June and its getting better!

Yes. When your on the pill, your sex drive goes down.
That's one of the things that the pill is supposed to do!

It is a common side effect maybe the reason they usually work so well?

Yes and it has nothing to do with your birth control. It has to do with your comfort level and stress level.
