My sex drive is ok so far but I just started taking the pill 5 days ago

I've been on ortho tri cyclen lo for a month and a half. When I first got on it I was dry a lot during sex but I blame it on that I really was not in the mood because I had stabbing pains in my side for a few days. (that's enough to make anyone not want to have sex) other then that, i've had no problems.

Side note: apparentally, pills with 3 levels of hormones (a diff level each week) are less liekly to cause decrease in sex drive.

Mine was fine. I'm not on anymore, I got off because I kept accidentally skipping pills and now i'm 18 weeks pregnant!

I have been on nuva ring for the past few months and I can say that my sex drive has not went anywhere. I would think that it has increased since getting on nuva ring.

Birth control can increase/decrease your sex drive. That is very, very common. If it is bothersome, you can switch to a different pill that doesn't give you that effect.

I am on nuva ring and I do notive my esx drive decrease as well, but not enough to cause any problems with my relationship. In fact I don't even think my boyfriend has noticed.

Yep ,lost my libido on the pill.My doc switched me to yasmine.It has some testosterone in it ,it did help.Now my doc took me off the pill altogether,now my husband has lost his desire .I keep trying to talk him into a little snipsnip.Probably not even needed,we could not concieve when we tried.Oh well!!!Yes,the pill is a double edged sword!It gives you the freedom to have sex whenever you want,then takes away the desire!!I miss my pills!!!!It made my peroids so much easier and could pinpoint the arrival almost to the hour!! I guess I can only hope menopause comes soon!Patty

I'm on ortho ... Lo. My sex drive has definately gone down since I have been on it. It's causing lots of stress on our marriage.I want to please my husband. But i'm rellay not in the mood as much as he is. I try..I can't even orgasam like I use to. Hopefully I will talk to my gyno and I will be able to switch pills or something..

I had a reduced libido on ortho tricyclen.. I am better on the depo shot (now that my period has regulated anyway).

Mine never did but im not on it no more and it seems like I wanted it more when I was on b/c than I do now.

Im on alesse and me and my boyfriend will have to say that I have a highly increased sex drive.. I dont know if its becuase of the pill or if im just more comforatable knowing that I have a very slim chance of getting pregnant. If u do find you have a lowered sex drive.. Ask ur doctor about another bc choice
