Hi doctor, I am a mother if 2 year old baby. I have mo interest in sex after delivery. Should I worry?

Question

Hello- yes you should. A common complaint for many women is the loss of libido, or sex drive. Often this symptom is associated with menopause, but adult women of varying age groups have noted a decline in sex drive. At initial phase most women aren't aware of all the factors that affect libido, or the treatments available to help. Many are too embarrassed to share their worry with a physician. Patients are often told they are over stressed or depressed and given an antidepressant. Unfortunately, many medications actually make the problem worse. Many women note that stress is not the major issue, and that depression is really frustration that their libido is not in sync with that of their partner. However certain aphrodisiac herbs (in ayurveda) and specific tips can offer significant help for this condition and overall well-being.

Possibly it might be due to low estrogen levels. Don't worry, you can also consult for exact diagnosis and treatment accordingly.
