Birth Control Pill

Dear baby, the pill effects every woman differently, and it also depends on the type of pill you are going to take. A low sex drive is just one of the "possible" side effects, you really won't know until you have tried it. Don't worry though, if you find it lowers your sex drive, i'm sure your doctor would be happy to keep trying you on different types until you find one that suits you.

Regards,
