  Oral contraceptives reduce libido


Oral contraceptives, gave women sexual freedom, can cause loss of sexual desire.

While the loss of sexual well-known side effect of women's contraceptives, researchers the American Association of Family Planning argue that the effect can last much longer, and even take a permanent shape.

Until recently, it was believed that the loss of sexual interest reversible and ends after a woman stops taking contraceptives.

Professor Irwin bomb the University of Boston studied 125 young women treated for sexual dysfunction and found that 52% of those taking oral contraceptives, 34% of them using in the past, and 14% has never been.

Scientific measured in patients receiving contraceptive drugs, the level of SHBG substance, the core of the women's contraceptive, that it is seven times higher than among women who had never taken the pill, and those that who ceased to take pills, the SHBG still remained above three or four times.

Irwin commented: "There is the possibility that the SHBG remains in the body until the end of life."

However, the representative of the British Association for Family Planning, said that the study is highly suspect: "It is difficult to determine that affect the level of sexual rights, because of men and women, these factors are different depending on the lifestyle."

The level of stress that you ate or drank, do you have children and what age they can all influence your desire. None of these factors in the study had not been counted.
