Do you know why my sudden lack of sex drive could have happened?

Question - (6 February 2011) 1 Answers - (Newest, 7 February 2011)
A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I am 23 years old and have been with my boyfriend for nearly 5 years. I love him to pieces and for about the first 3 years of our relationship we were constantly having sex but within the last 2 years my sex drive has gone from normal to nearly none exsistant and i don't know why this is?

It's at the stage now that my lack of sex is really starting to annoy my boyfriend as he thinks i don't find him attractive anymore which isn't the case as i think he's gorgeous. We only tend to have sex now about once a month and even then i don't thoroughly want to do it, it's just to keep him happy. (and it's not that sex is bad because he's really good) Sometimes i've even stopped in the middle of sex as i didn't want to do it that much.

We've been through numerous 'breaks' which i have initiated because i've thought that maybe i just don't want to be with him anymore as the thought of sleeping with other people sometimes turns me on but i would never do that whilst in a relationship. However i was always devasted when we were apart and we would get back together.

I see myself with my boyfriend for the rest of my life and we are talking about moving out together. i don't want to be with anyone else but the thought of my sex life decreasing anymore absolutley petrifies me. I just want to get back to how it used to be between us. Do you know why the sudden lack of sex drive could have happened? Please help.

See your doctor and have you hormone levels tested. Lots of women around your age go thru a dry spell when it comes to sex.
