Re: Birth control causes loss of libido

Thanks for this link. I can personally relate to a lot of the symptoms. It was right after I had my third child (granted it was only one year after my second) I began (naively) taking the Depo shot. I took it for one year. I was never big on prescription contraceptives - too sensitive to them. I immediately gained weight. Towards the end of the year I was experiencing noticeable physical symptoms - Depression (have a history of), low libido, low energy, fatigue, acne, hypothyroidism, etc. That year was a big turning point.

Additionally, I deeply appreciate and honor the experience as it led me Curezone...and offered opportunity to begin experiencing new aspects of myself! Hooray!

Did you post this on the Gynecological forum? It would be a great addition over there.
