Slightly embarrassing question

I am at two years out and have had my libido suddenly go up off the charts.  As a single woman this is not necessarily good.  I'm finding it hard to sleep or concentrate.  Is this normal?  And I'm  no spring chicken either!  Maybe my body wants to make up for lost years, but man, this is distracting. Will this pass? Sally

Sally for me personally whenever I increase my exercise my libido goes wild....even worse now that im smaller.  I thinks for me its a bit of the I feel good because I worked out and working out must make you sexier so therefor I am sexy heheheh Dont know for sure but its how its seems to happen for me Diana

Oh I wouldn't mind it if I could do something about it!  There's no "significant other" and little likelihood of finding one here. Sally

Sally  Never give up on finding THE ONE... I used to think that way too until at 51 I met MR WONDERFUL .. I had so many frogs in my life then one day ,,,,,,,,,,IT happened.. You can too as you look pretty and sound as if your nice .... I hope you find the one for you because love makes even a bologna sandwich wonderful . Hugs to you  Shirley

My libido is still playing dead so I can't help you other than to suggest an introduction to BOB (Battery Operated Boyfriend) to take the edge off..

I wish I could get SOME libido, I dont know if I will ever find a partner, but if I do, I hope I can get my mojo lol.  I agree with Lynda, when in doubt, go the rabbit!!! hugs, Helen

Mine died postop too. For those w/dead sex drives, there may be hope.  Many studies suggest upping the zinc ups the libido.  (Mine's been too low for a while and my surgeon has me on 200mg/day as it needs to be in the normal range).  It can take up to 6 mos. for the zinc to help the libido out so consider talking to your doctor.
