Sex Drive - lack of !!!!

[Jayneeliz]

Hi This is my first time on mums net and I need some help .
I am 50 years old but dont look it ( well i dont think so !!!) I keep fit and healthy and have a very happy home life and a gorgeous husband who is 5 years younger than me . He is sex mad but since I stopped having periods / started menopause about 2.5 / 3 years ago I have COMPLETELY lost all interest in sex and have not had the "urge " for all that Time too . I have been to the doctors who suggested a "date night" for god sake stupid woman - I also read 50 shades that didnt work either infact i thought that was crap and there doesn't seem to be a female equivalent to Viagra or is there ???? Has any one out there got any advice / tips etc

Thanks

Is the fact that he is 'sex mad' putting you off in any way... do you feel under pressure? Do you think you've relied too much on this 'urge' to get you in the mood and neglected affection, intimacy and other types of foreplay in the process?

Hi no I don't feel under pressure at all and tried all sorts inc foreplay but to no avail ??

What about affection and intimacy in general? Do you hold hands in the street, cuddle on the sofa... the kind of innocent thing teenagers might do? Does your lack of interest in anything sexual extend to not being able to join in if someone was to say 'phwoarrr... Colin Firth' or simila
