| Age 33 after birth of first kid. 46 now and there is a glimmer of it at times but I could go without and be happy. My DH has the patience of a saint and about as much sex as one 😃 |

| 39, my body never recovered from kids and work and stress. I am willing to try whenever he wants to, not often. We’re tired. |

| Early 40s. I had three young children so problems fatigue and stress played a toll but my libido continued to wane as menopause approached and now seems to have disappeared completely in my mid 50s |

SSRIs will generally kill libido and destroy your sex life; warn your spouse / partner before going on SSRIs. Doctors do a terrible job of educating patients of this nearly universal side effect of SSRIs. |

| I wasn’t very sexual right after my kids were born, but when my oldest was about 9 and I was 38, I had a sexual reawakening. It’s been awesome! |

It doesn’t happen to everyone. Been on one for decades... still have a strong drive (I’m a woman). But in fairness to doctors, they have to treat the more serious problem... |
