A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Quick question for fellow females (and men but cant imagine they would be much help on this one) i have read that a common side effect of the contraceptive pill is loss of libido! I am suffering from this I am on the microgynon pill to protect myself from getting pregnant but instead I think it may be putting me off sex all together! I'm either too tired or just simply can't be bothered. Do other women suffer from this, do you believe it's the pill causing the problem? or is it boredom?

Are all the pills the same?

Any help or advise much appreciated!

dummyduckling agony aunthey ya im on the microgynon 30 pill myself and if anything it strenghens my labido, but stress or a busy life style can lower your libido. i have heard that loss or weakness of the libido can be a common yet mild side affect. but i think it could be combination of the pill and maybe boredom. i hope this helped.
