lost interest in sex in and worried about marriage

I've been married for 7 years and have two small DS and in the last year I've completely lost my libido and in essence Im worried about my marriage. I still love my DH although we do end up arguing now fairly frequently and the longer we are married the more our differences are apparent. Essentially with two small children I am exhausted as a SAHM and just have refused sex for up to a year but also am alarmed that I no longer find DH as attractive as I once did in that department. I still want to be married but don't know what to do or if there is any hope in being able to rekindle the sex side of things and am also very aware that my DH is very sex orientated and for him it is very important so fear he may want out if we can't resolve it. Has anyone else been in this situation of know what I should do? Am wondering if this is an age related hormone issue as I'm late 40s - could this be contributing to my loss of libido or is my changed view of my DH affecting it. I really want to be married and to resolve it if I can especially with two small children. Any help or advice much appreciated

It absolutely could be due to hormones. Make a GP appointment and explain your situation, they usually do take these things seriously, especially as you're around that age. Sorry this is happening, I've been in a similar situation and it is awful Thanks

2 young kids, tired don't want sex. Less sex less likely for fancy DH.
