writes:I have always classed myself as bi-sexual. My first sexual experience was with another girl and it was another 2 years before I had sex with a man. I am now engaged to a wonderful man who also struggles with his sexuality.For years I was slightly promiscuous but now I am not attracted to men at all. My partner and I have sex once a fortnight maybe? I do enjoy the feeling of my vagina being "full" but I don't enjoy his penis. I do not feel attracted to either sex anymore. I'm worried that I am asexual but how can I go from liking both sexes to none? It's so confusing and upsetting. Can anyone shed light on my situation please?

Fancy yourself as an agony aunt? Add your answer to this question! A
reader, anonymous, writes (19 September 2011): I would say it is very likely the birth control / depression combination. Ironically, anti-depressants (which are supposed to make you feel better,) also can kill libido. And implant / depo birth control seem to be much, much stronger than the pill. I say you should talk to your doctor about strategies. And if you're not in therapy try that as well. Maybe youc an at least find a balance. But for me I didn't get better until I was off of birth control 100%, which is not a good option if you don't want baby,. Isn't life annoying sometimes?

About 3 months ago I went on the contraceptive implant so maybe that is what is causing it, I also suffer from depression so maybe a combination of both is a bit of a train crash for my hormones?

reader, anonymous, writes (15 September 2011): Did you change to a new birth control by chance? Or are you having any symptoms of depression? Also you could be going through a hormonal imbalance for some reason. I would actually call a doctor and discuss this. You don't go from being normal (meaning you are attracted to people and enjoy sex,) to losing your libido and wanting no sex at all for no reason.As a woman hormones play a huge role in your ability to not only enjoy sex but actually desire it. Hormonal birth control is disasterous to me. I'm actually very driven sexually, but when I'm on birth control I don't even think about sex. Sex actually makes me irritated and unhappy when I'm on the pill. When I'm off it I go back to normal, and I feel so much better, too. Many, many women struggle with low libido due to hormone imblance of many types. So see your doctor and explain what is going on.
