One more thought: when you stop the bc pill, allow several months, maybe many months, for your body to adjust. Don't expect an overnight change.

I think you're right.

Being on the pill for an extended period of time the body adjusts to it.

Going off the pill like you say may take quite some time to readjust the hormone levels.

I've been doing bikram yoga for the past 6 months and it's changed everything in my life. The most bad *** people in the class are older middle aged women and they rock!

One of the instructors is in her 60s and frequently talks about the benefits it makes to her sex life.

It sounds like a combination of a hormonal imbalance due to both medication and depression.

Anti depressants lower sex drive and along with the pill could confuse your body.

I had no sex drive during the peak of my ptsd. But i still recognised the fact i wanted to have sex.

I started just exploring sexual kinks and masturbation with just myself. Being able to get horny and orgasm by myself was a step forward to having sex again.

With your partner you can eliminate the pain aspect with masturbation. Don't have penetrative sex until you feel it will be pain free.

Read books, forums, watch porn. Push your boundaries but with only yourself. Allow yourself to feel sexy again.
