If you are on Cymbalta, I would check that. I have had some issues (not the same, but similar)

Yes I lost my sex drive and was finding sex painful. Went to my GP and she prescribed Vagisil which you insert and I have to say my sex drive returned.

Licorice root tea and black licorice can help stimulate such a feeling. If you have high blood pressure might not be good for you. Olives too. Look up foods that set the mood but research the affects those foods might have on your medical conditions before trying. Don't be afraid to consult your doctor on this matter of yours.

Drive? I gave up my driver's license years ago because of extreme fibro-fog. So no driving since 2001!
Oh...SEX DRIVE!!! Pre cancer I had inconsistent sexual desires but no partner. During and after chemotherapy and radiation therapy, then after all drives have been down the greater part of time. I've been doing some reading for my situation and low Vitamin D3 causes quite a few problems mentally, emotionally and physically. Lacking in the B vitamins is not good either...nor magnesium. I'm sure I will learn of more as I research and read. When my daughters get back from their vacation they are going to help me figure what the best supplement route....foods and herbs too....to take. I'm not giving in to medical problems!!! 😊💕
