Highs and lows in a woman’s sex drive are common at different points in her life, such as the start or end of a relationship, major life events like pregnancy, menopause, or illness, as well as some mood-stabilizing drugs.
Hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD), which causes personal distress, may be present in you if your lack of interest in sex persists or returns.
