sex drive

in TTC after 35
Hey ladies, here is yet another question from me.  What kind of things can be done to increase sex drive.  Some months my sex drive is up and other months have no desire at all.  None is this month.  I wish I could stop thinking sometimes.  Any advice greatly appreciated.  Y'all are great!!!  Thanks.

    My sex drive took a serious dive in my mid-to-late thirties and hasn't really come back.  I am starting to think I am "estrogen-dominant" and that this hormonal imbalance has something to do with my lack of sex drive (plus the fact that I am crazy busy and don't get enough sleep).  I have started taking an herb that is supposed to help balance your estrogen/progesterone ratios and one of the benefits of this is increased sex drive.  I'll report back in a few months (it takes awhile for the herb to take effect).  Of course, if I get pregnant, I'll be off the herb...but that's just me being optimistic :)!!

    That was going to be my question, is it safe during pregnancy.  Anxious to hear how it works.  Best of luck.  Hope it works for you.

    I was taking 75 mg of DHEA as recommended by my RE for egg health and during that time I noticed an increase in my sex drive. I was on it for about 4 months but eventually went off since it messed with cycles so badly. Good luck to you.

     Is there a brand or type that was recommended to you?
