I can't handle the horn

Is anyone else really struggling with how horny they are? We have been trying for 21 months! Not a sniff of a bfp, but that aside I just find I'm horny all the time, sometimes it's quite uncomfortable and I have to relieve myself to feel better...is anyone else finding this now they are on contraception? I always thought I had a low sex drive but now I'm not so sure!

Please tell me I'm not alone!

Do you mean now you're off contraception? Yeah, hormonal contraception really suppresses libido.

@Namechangervaver I've been off it for 22months, I was on it for 15 years prior to that so never knew I had a sex drive!

My sex drive died the moment I went on the implant!

@Lifeinthedeep I was on that 6 years and literally could go months without sex! I really can't believe the changes to my body since being off contraception. It's making me not want to ever go back on it!

Hormonal contraception always made me depressed, no libido.
There are non hormonal such as barrier methods or copper coil when you want contraception again
