what can i do about my sexdrive? I am a 22 yearold, i had my son four months ago. My sexdrive has been really low since i was a few months pregnant, and its still not back. Im not breastfeeding so it has nothing to do with that. I was having sex like crazy in my first trimester, but all of a sudden it disappered. What can i do ?

Sound like you might have some post partum issues. Post partum depression can cause this. Sometimes the hormones need time to get back on track. You could try getting some progesterone cream and using a little on your body. Are your periods back to normal? If not, that could throw things off too. When you're pregnant you make more progesterone than estrogen so that's why you had a high sex drive. Try some cream.
