No sex drive

I’m 5 months PP and I have no sex drive and don’t know what to do anymore. I just read online it could be the anti-depressants I’m on. I’m also on quetiapine which is an antipsychotic medication. Is anyone else in the same boat? Any tips? I feel awful for my partner. I want to want to do it but when it’s happening I just want it to end and I’m not into it. I’ve also started taking the turn me on gummies but nothing.

You shouldn’t feel pressure if you don’t wanna do it! Your body will come around eventually but in the meantime you can do things for him that isn’t just penetrative sex. I was in the same situation not too long ago and I found it eased both of our frustrations when I gave him a handy or oral or literally anything else but penetration! Just try to spice it up without feeling the need to have actual sex. This is a tad taboo but I gave my partner a few handies in the car and he loved those lmao.

Same boat and I’m on Sertraline !

Yes. Could well be a side effect of your medication. There are other medications which can be prescribed with a lower side effect profile.

Its the medications, keep checking with your doctor if you need them and ask for a plan that give you an end line for using them they should help you with that
