Birth Control Sideaffect?
Posted: 03-04-05 23:06pm

I have recently started taking birth control about two months ago, and I have not felt like having any sex at all. Whenever my husband tries to get me in the mood I am completely turned off. Could this possibly be a sideaffect to starting the pill, and ,if so, will it subside? Please reply. This is really starting to affect our relationship.

I had the same problem when I switched bc. You may want to talk to your Dr. And see if you may need to change brands.. Each brand and type has different strengths of estrogen and progestin.

I hope it helps.

As mentioned, once you're finished this cycle of bc try another brand. Birth control pills can definately affect sex drive. (both favorably and infavorably..)
