Long-term Birth Control Pill Use & Sexual Preference Posted: 12-16-04 22:14pm
Hi there,
i was on birth control pills for 9 years
(28 yrs oldnow) I was on orthotricyclen
and yasmim. I noticed that my sex drive
while on the pill was pretty low - then
after getting oft he pill (4 mos ago for
me) I noticed that I was getting acne, my
breasts shrank a bit, and grew a couple of
hairs on my face. Most interestingly, I
suddenly became sexually attracted to
women and my sex drive is now quite huge!
I know that this may sound off the wall
to many -- has anybody else experienced a
change in sexual preference after
long-term pill use?
