    "...long-term use of the birth control pill can affect a woman‘s sex drive. Even after she goes off it, though most women cycle on and off the pill, or many do throughout their lifetimes, even when they go off it, they have decreased sex drive."

    anyone else concerned about this? i feel like it may apply to me... i was wondering if anyone here felt the same and what you'd do about it.

    i agree with what ihmurria said. for me it doesnt really effect my sex drive if anything it improves it as i dont have to worry/stress as much about getting pregnant

    For me it kills my sex drive. I feel better sexually when I am off, but my skin is better and I am more stable when I am on it. Going off totally fucks with my hormones.
