So I've been on every type of hormonal contraception going. Some were awful, some were ok, but all of them have killed my sex drive. I've been on contraception since I was 16 so hard to tell how I feel without them as obviously I was a randy teenager when I first went on them.
After having ds I went onto the mirena coil and it's amazing, I feel great. The only thing is about once a month I have a few days to a week of feeling incredibly up for it. So much so that I could honestly just invite the workmen outside my office in for a quickie, it's that intense a feeling.
It's not just that though, everything is better during this time of the month. Music sounds better, food tastes better, driving feels amazing
I feel like I'm better at my job, like I'm getting loads done and my boss is very impressed and I can do no wrong. Obviously this is all in my head and I have to keep reminding myself that it's not a real feeling and just happens once a month!
I also work in the medical world so another thought I've had is 'is it bipolar or another sort of mood disorder?' But then I don't get the lows. So confused!
