Help, I don’t want to have sex anymore and it’s destroying my marriage

SheriNYC April 1, 2010 at 3:59 am

I am 56 yrs old and have absolutely no desire to have sex with my husband of 32 years. We’ve always had a great sex life, but over the last couple of years I’ve lost interest in sex. I just don’t feel very sexy and could care less if we never had sex again. My husband has been very patient, but he says he can’t put up with this anymore. Is this normal to feel this way? Can I do something about this? I’m afraid for my marriage.

Sheri, I am 25 and have lost my libido entirely. Please contact Dr. Irwin Goldstein of San Diego Sexual Medicine. He and his wonderful staff will change your life. He’s the top sexual medicine specialist in the world. He’s put me on testosterone, and it has helped tremendously. Currently, I’m self-administering testosterone injections. I know how difficult this is; my husband and I have been going through this for 8 years. Please, please, at least schedule a courtesy call with Dr. Goldstein. He WILL get to the bottom of your issue. Good luck.

I am pleased to say that Dr. G has also helped me, 60 years old, to rediscover the honeymoon part of my marriage. Dr. G is a doctor who loves helping women feel complete again. It’s wonderful to know that he and his staff support total sexual health. Best of luck to you.

I to was about to loose my husband because I could have cared less if I ever had sex again. After two kids in my late 30’s and at 40 I just thougt this is how it’s going to be. My husband desperatly researched and found a doucumentary online that I watched. I then realised that I wasn’t allone and that there was help. I found Dr. Goldstein in my area I was so excited and still am. I have tried the pellet and gel and now on the Axiron which I like. I am also on a low dose of thyroid Rx and Wellbutrin low dose. Good combo. I just wish the hair growing wasn’t a part of it. But I know how to shave all over now LOL! I am finding out that more and more woman I run into are on Testoserone and I am less inhibitated to talk about it.

I’m really curious what about the pellet didn’t work for you? I tried the Testim and Axiron with some good results and am now thinking of going to the pellet. Have you tried the injections?

You also say you shave all over!! May I ask where you are getting unwanted hair growth?

Thanks and good luck!
