Medical stuff is kinda my thing and since I tend to be a professional in the medical field this stuff doesn't make me uneasy...sorry if it does you... I thought I'd pass this little tid bit along...in all seriousness
If you're lady...or you are a lady...is on "the pill" and is experiencing low or lowered sex drive than she did before starting the pill...the pill can be to blame.
Example...real world btw...
YAZ...a new low dose pill...is of the monophasic type of pills. In studies (and personal exp.) monophasic pills tend to decrease if not almost totally reduce sex drive in women.
YAZ is also (with decent insurance) about $50 a pop...no off brand yet for it...but I'm sure there are off brands for monophasics
Monophasic pills are called such because they use one type of hormone. Your period can be shorter and lighter (4 days as there are only 4 placebo pills) however...the side affects of these pills (sex drive) is a major concern among many women (and their men)
If you are a woman who had a high drive before you may still experience "the drive" but not nearly as much or often
If you had a normal drive you could experience little drive at all.
Many women in the study found their orgasms were not as "good" as before, it was more difficult to orgasm, and lack of lubrication was an issue.
WHAT TO DO??? Triphasic pills...my fiance's were under $20 I believe
these use three different hormones. The period lasts longer (there are 7 placebo pills).
But from being on them for just half a week...I can attest that the drive comes back.
Many women who used the monophasic pills (according to the studies) showed higher levels of a certain hormone (sorry can't remember the name) which correlates to lowered sex drive...even after discontinuing the pill (those who took it for 10 years) still showed higher levels of this hormone...they also had lower sex drives then their counterparts who were not on monophasics...and lower sex drive then when they began those pills.
The study deduces that monophasic pills, when taken for any amount of time, can damage a womans sex drive...very likely, alter it permanently.
So if this is an issue for you look into it.
also according to all my searching...both types of pills work just as effectively (with proper use)...any info to the contrary is welcomed
