Question for the ladies

[Jaredjames1]

I have been dating my girlfriend for almost 2 years we have been living together for almost a year over the last few months sex has been less often then normal when I asked her if it was something I had done she said, no that she still finds me attractive and loves me very much just her sex drive has not been as high lately. She says it could be just something she is going thru because of her age she will be 40, my sex drive is as high now as it was when I was 20 and I'm 45. She is also taking medication for high blood pressure and diabetes I have wondered if that could could cause a low sex drive, she said she would ask the doctor at her next appointment. Could ther be a cooling off period in a relationship where things start to get comfortable possibly? Could use some input here. I'm being patient because I realize a relationship isn't about just sex, its been tough because our sex drives are not matching at the moment.

Most definitely medications can affect sex drive, same goes for anti depressants and other drugs you mentioned. I don't think it is her desiring sex with you less or desiring you less, she told you it wasn't that, believe her. Go to dr. with her and ask questions she might be embarrassed to ask herself. You might have to take care of business alone for awhile until her dr. gets her medications dealt with.
