It is possible that it is your pill. Discuss this with your health care provider to see if you can not use another type of pill. Switching to a pill with a different hormonal composition did wonders for my own libido when my pill affected me in a similar way.

I agree with Susan. Switching pills could be your answer. Or, you could try a different form of hormonal birth control. NuvaRing, Implanon, and Mirena are all good options.

If you do not experience any changes, however, I would consider a non-hormonal form of birth control.
