I found my libido!!!!!

I've been off my pill for 6 months. Periods are regular and manageable and this last fortnight I've found my libido - BOOSH!!!

Husband is delighted and so am I.

Except I had to get the morning after pill on Monday and I was totally mortified.

I'm afraid if I go back on the pill I'm going to loose my libido again.

I'm looking for advice, what can I use that isn't the pill? I'm 50 and husband is 58. (Condoms don't really work for us)

Thanks.

@BerryMummypudding

Just crack on, there is an extremely low chance of you falling pregnant at 50! Suggesting your DH gets a vasectomy at 58 (and with you at 50) as a few posters have done is bloody ludicrous. You have a less than 1% chance of falling pregnant, and the pregnancy going to full term!

Obviously, you're going to get a few people saying their great auntie Fluff, and great gran had babies at 49, 50, 51, 52 etc, but the chances are that this was a grandchild! (One of their teen daughters had a baby, and they raised it, and pretended to everyone that it was theirs!) 😬

Happened LOADS back in the day! I know lots of people now in their mid to late 40s (or older) who were raised by granny, and they thought she was their mum until they were a teenager.

My DH is a similar age to yours and had a vasectomy. Very quick and simple. Almost no pain and we then enjoyed the process of making sure he had enough ejaculations to clear the tubes!!
