Hi
I've been with my boyfriend for two and a half years now, and for about a year now I've just had very little desire for sex. It's not completely gone, but only comes infrequently and then completely disappears again, and I wondered if this is normal because it hasn't always been like that. It really frustrates my boyfriend, and is there anything I can do to help it? I've been on birth control for two years and I'm aware low sex drive is a side effect, but I thought side effects disappeared after a while. I also suffer from depression but I don't know if that would affect it as well. Any help is appreciated!
