Off birth control!!!

Yay! I went to the doc today and we are stopping birth control!! I'm so hopeful my sex drive will come back. I have had ZERO interest in sex for about 2 years now and that made for a sad honeymoon last december.

Re: Off birth control!!!

  • I went off my birth control pill about 4 months ago (I went off for medical reasons mainly, but the low sex drive thing was defiently a reason also.) Since I've been off of it my sex drive has improved a little; which is nice to actually "want" my husband again.  I've also noticed that sex is not has painful as it was while I was in the pill. My body is still getting used to being off the pill, my cycle is always a week early then the last month; but I'll take that over not "wanting" intamacy with husband.

    Good luck to you!

  • I stopped a week ago and I'm hoping my libido will come out of hiding too as well. Good luck!!!
  • I stopped a month ago and I'm completely back to normal! It feels great to feel like myself again, in every way imaginable. 

    Good luck, I'm sure you'll feel great soon! 

  • I stopped a week ago and I have already noticed a difference. I'm sure you will be back to normal in no time. :)
  • I've been off the pill for about 5months. I went off it before our wedding and prior to me going off it I had such a low sex drive and could have cared less if we even had sex.

    Since being off it my sex drive is insane, I'm back to where I was prior to going on it.

    Good luck!

  • I went off my bc about 5 months ago and my sex drive is back to normal! i found that in the first half of my cycle, my sex drive is through the roof and the second half of the month it decreases quite a bit. My emotions are more in check too. I use to be really up and down, but now that I've been off bc, my emotions are much more stable. all in all, it's been a great decision!
  • I've just stopped as well, hoping to get that libido out of hiding!
