    To women: Does the pill reduce your sexual desire?

    The pill did not reduce my sexual desire at all. In fact, being on the pill increased it because I don’t have to worry about unwanted pregnancy. With condoms there is always the possibility that it will break, slip off, semen will leak out, etc. And when you are worried, sex can’t be fully enjoyed. An additional factor is that my menstrual cycle is more regular, and I don’t have all the complications that go along with irregular periods. As a result I am much happier and therefore more into sex.

    No way! The pill enhances my sexual desire. I feel less inhibited because it reduces the chance of pregnancy by 98 percent. However, some drugs can reduce desire, such as anti-depressants like Zoloft and Prozac. Many drugs (even vitamins like St. John’s Wort) can also negate the effect of the birth control pill, so a woman should be careful and consult her doctor. It is also important to always use condoms to prevent sexually transmitted diseases like herpes and HIV.

    The Pill could decrease desire depending on the type/dosage and the woman’s personal body chemistry. I tried a triphasic Pill briefly, but had awful lubrication problems–it was almost like going through menopause. So I went back to Ortho-Novum. The Pill also seemed to ‘even out’ sexual desire over the monthly cycle, instead of having increased desire just before ovulation (the fertile time period) and less desire before or during menstruation. In my opinion, a woman may have to try more than one type of Pill before she finds one that works best for her.

    I found it depends on the type of pill you are using. it once happened to mer after not havoing been on the pill for a couple of years, that the first one my doctore prescribed absolutely killed my libido. I asked her to change my prescription and after that desire came back …
