I am a 39 year old female in a committed relationship. I work part-time as a nurse and am mother or 5 children ages 22 months to 15 years old. My partner was a young widow at the age of 32 and he had 3 children when I met him. I had the oldest child and together we had one. I find myself worrying alot or possibly over stressing about many things. Be it financial, the children or his deceased wife. I have tried to put things to the back burner and not worry about it. I had the Mirena IUD put in and thought that maybe there was a link between my low libido and this device. My partner told me my lack of interest in sex started way before this. He just never told me until I told him last night that I was not in the mood. He got upset and told me it's so frustrating. I don't know what to do. I want to have sex but am barely in the mood. I went to my GYN and had some lab tests done but no results as yet. She doesn't want to prescibe testosterone because she thinks I am too young for that treatment!
Please advise!! If you require more detailed information, I will be happy to elaborate!
