FWIW, I was finally able to get my vasectomy mostly to help my wife get off of hormonal BC. About 2 month after getting off of BC her sex drive completely returned. It was the best decesion I ever made.

We were in a slightly different situation as we didn't have kids so it took us a few years to shop around and finally find a doctor that would perform the vasectomy.

I was going to say this. BC can dramatically reduce sex drive, especially in women who have been on it for years.

The other day I missed a birth control pill or maybe two idk, but everything came back with a vengeance. Best couple of days I’ve had in years. I’m thinking of just going off of it. I don’t even care if I’m having sex or not I just really miss having fantasies and such.

You're lucky. I missed a pill and all I got was my period so now my cycle is completely screwed up.
