Please help. I'm 23 and been married for 2 years but been together 4 1/2 years. Ever since birth of daughter 18 months ago, I have lost interest in sex. I do have some stress in my life and have been on the depo shot until now. I am trying to find a way to make me more energetic and want to be intimate with my husband. Please help. Willing to try anything before going on meds. Thanks
Update:Once we get started I enjoy it. I just have no interest in beginning it. I just wake up, do my errands and take care of the children and then I am tired and ready to go to sleep.

When going off of hormones it is not uncommon to have hormone withdrawal symptoms, such as headaches, pelvic pain, bloating, and breast tenderness. Although, this should not directly affect your sex drive, it could be the presence of some of these side effects has decreased your interest in being sexual. The stress and anything else going on in your life certainly doesn't help and now that you have a child to care for your priorities may have shifted. All of this on top of the fact that the initial excitement is bound to ware off after so many years- so try some things to spice up your sex life that you will both be excited about, that can be anything as simple as trying some new positions, but you can get creative with other things that you are comfortable with
