Birth Control Affecting Sex Posted: 10-22-04 20:45pm
Since I started using the nuva ring about
four months ago, my husband and I don't
have sex as much, mainly because it is so
much more of a mess than before. The
birth control makes the cervical mucus
thicker so the sperm can't meet up with
the egg. This makes his cum come right
out so we have to get cleaned up before
having sex again, but that usually kills
the mood because it is a bit gross. Has
anyone else had this problem using nuva
ring or similar birth control? It is
really frustrating me - we used to have
sex several times in one go before I got
on birth control. We don't want to go
back to just using condoms and counting
days, so any help is appreciated.

Have you considered having sex in places
where it would be easier to clean?? Maybe
you could do it once in the shower, clean
off real quick, and go into the bedroom
for round two??
