WOWWWW

A little background to this?for the past 6 months + pretty much ever since we got married and I started taking BCP my sex drive was very low. So the past few months my husband would come to me and try to turn me on and what not and  I would always give some kind of excuse because I didn?t want to end up doing it and have to stop in the middle of it because it hurt or because I wasn?t feeling much. Moreover, I would feel pressured to at least try to do it more often for my husband?s sake because it really wasn?t his fault and I wanted to feel that closeness again but I just could not bring myself to do it. I honestly think it was a hormonal problem once I got off BC but then I think it was all mental and I?ve been struggling with that problem since.

 

Well last week my husband started his medical program, he is in the radiology dept. so he can?t carry his phone around, thus we don?t talk until I get home..So we?ve been missing each other a lot and I guess the fact that we don?t talk and see each other as much as before is actually helping us. Last night I got home and right away we started making out for a while and then next thing you know I?m on the kitchen countertop, with my skirt pulled up. Then we moved on to the couch and it lasted for a while. And unbelievable, a few hours later we went at it for round two.

 

I guess I just wanted to share this with you ladies, I thought I wouldn?t get my ?mojo? back, I really tried and I was always so ah not in the mood. So last night was amazing and I hope it will stay like this. One thing is for sure I am never taking BCP again..it started all this mess..

Re: WOWWWW

  • So glad you got your mojo back! I myself have been having issues with the moj. I think I FINALLY have it back (thank god)! I do an IUD (very low hormone), might be worth looking into. Congrats

    Seriously! i think that really pushed us in the right direction.. :)

  • Awesome! Sounds like you got your groove back for sure!
  • Awesome! Good for you guys. :) I had the same problem with my BC making my sex drive low. It was awful.
  • Same thing happened to me!  BCP totally lowered my desire.  I finally decided to get off of it because of that and then it was a mental thing!

    That took me a little while to get over as well.  Sometimes, I just forced myself to do it for my husband's sake but other times, I seriously wasn't in the mood. I felt us growing more and more distant sexually and I hated it. 

    Before I knew it though, I was back in the game.  No more BCP for me!

  • That's so great! It's good to hear that things worked out for you. I've been having a similar problem with my own sex drive, and it's only recently occurred to me that it might have something to do with my BC. I use an IUD, which is supposed to have a low hormone dosage, but I know all BC affects each woman differently, so maybe I should do some research and see if there's a better option for me.
