to the extent that i want it every night and i end up spending whole day turned on and wanting sex!

dh says its like someone has flicked a switch on me as up till now my sex drive was as you would expect after having a baby

i used to be like this when we first got together so dh is in his element however i just don't seem to be satisfied after even when its really great etc.

i think what i would like to know is... is this normal? is there a reason for women to go wild??

lol have you come off the pill or maybe you're just reaching that age

lou33 · 31/12/2007 11:54

my sex drive increased when i got in my late 30's

Have you recently stopped taking the pill? Some medication and contraceptive pills dimish libido in some women, so if you've stopped taking them, then your hormones may just be getting back to normal.

well i am 23 so i suppose i should have a high sex drive!

belgo i have dd2 15 wks i started the pill but bled the whole time i took it, this has happened before so i have decided not to take it anymore as it just seems to muck me up. so my hormones must have balanced out now
