Looking for some ideas to research or books to read if anyone has suggestions - shortly after baby was born my sex drive (which had been gone for years, possibly due to SSRI antidepressants) suddenly came back. Then at about 3 months PP I seemingly had another hormone shift (mood swings, acne, hair started falling out). The mood swings leveled off after a week or so but my sex drive seems to be gone again.

I had kind of adjusted to the low libido thing but now having had it come back and remembering what that feels like... Argh. I'm only 29, I'm too young to just give up on this!

So, yeah, wondering if anybody has book or website recommendations re: connection between hormones (postpartum or otherwise) and women's libido, or suggestions of stuff I could ask my doctor about (he's great in general but kind of brushed me off last time I brought this up.)

OK. This is hard to talk about! Thanks! <3
