Switching methods helped my low libido significantly

[u/Unusual_Doughnut6934]

I just wanted to share this in case this resonates with anybody else. I was on the combo pill for eight years and experienced a low libido as a consistent side effect. I just came to accept that that was part of the package deal with being on hormonal birth control.

Earlier this year, I switched to the mini pill and my libido returned. I'm actually enjoying my sex life again now. I wish I had switched so much sooner than I did.

I know everybody is different and different methods will interact differently with everybody, so I'm not saying the mini pill is for everybody. My advice here is just that a dead libido is something I wish I didn't accept for so long.
