Anyone gone off their partner/husband because of menopause?

I've just had it confirmed I'm going through the perimenopause. The last week or so I've been put off by my boyfriend. I don't want to be touched or kissed. He annoys me. We have nothing to talk about unless it's to do with work or his childish jokes and childish behaviour.
I do get put off when he has bad breath because he didn't brush his teeth and when I mention he has something in his teeth he makes a joke about it and ignores it. I also can't stand when he's walking around naked. He has weird shaped body. He keeps asking if I'm alright and it drives me crazy!!
Could it be to do with menopausal symptoms? Will it go away

I love my DH to bits plus he’s kind, handsome & very fit. I love the idea of sex with him but my body even though I’m on hrt including testosterone just isn’t fussed at all

it makes me sad as I had a very high sex drive when you get but now I just can’t

Hope it's okay to pull you back to this thread, but just wondering if things are still the same for you? I'm in a similar place (although tbh never had a massive libido), started testorsterone back in October, and would love to know if I'm ever going to get back to my "normal".

I'm here as well. But ragingly horny for sex with someone else in my fantasies. My husband irritates the hell out of me though, and I'm not attracted to him at all.

Doesn't brush his teeth?

Bumping this- not really liking my husband at the moment 😕 sure it is menopause related as my emotions are all over the place

Yes, my husband goes to the gym for the hydropool, I’ve completely lost any sexual desire towards him. But muscley men catch my eye all the time!!

Apparently I'm in menopause at the moment plenty. However other health problems have masked it so it has gone mostly unnoticed.

I certainly have 'gone off' most people and things recently.
