I'm recently married and have no interest
in sex. What's wrong with me? What can I
do to get turned on again?
I feel very bad about myself in terms of
having "regularl" sex.
How often is regular?

There is no certain number that is
"normal" or "regular." Some people have
sex once a month, some have it every day.
Neither one is wrong, irregular, or
abnormal. It's all about preference.
You're not obligated to have it any
certain number of times just because you
are married.
People have different sex drives; they
always have. I wouldn't worry about it.
You'll get in the mood when you're ready
to get in the mood. In the meantime,
don't make it a chore or something you
feel like you have to do.

This happens to many married couples; but
I wouldn't worry about it unless your
husband is more interested in it than you.
I know when my bf moved in with me for a
few months we went from having sex twice a
day to about 2 times a week, sometimes
less. I was the one in that case wanting
more hehe But he was tired
from working two jobs with long hard
shifts.
It's normal for you to not have a lot of
sex! Right now we live 3 hours apart, so
when we do get to see each other, about
once a month, we have sex about 3 times
over the course of a weekend. I'm sure
when I live there over the summer than
number will go back down.

It may be a hormonal problem. Are you on
any form a hormonal birth control? I was
having the same complaint as you. As soon
as I went off of birth control, I was like
a different person I just thought
that I would throw the idea out there!
