Okay you horny wenches!
.......I'm so jealous.
I hit my "peak" at 36 and it only lasted a week.
.....but, ooooh what a week it was.
DH was a trooper, even when I was waking him up every night and he was still obviously exhausted from all the "activities" throughout the day. (LOL)
Just an FYI, not all female doctors are understanding to women's issues. Many years ago (in my mid-late 20's) I went to a female gynecologist and attempted to discuss a sexual concern with her after my exam. She was an older German woman, so I guess I was hoping she'd be more like Dr Ruth (LOL). But, nope! She practically went off on me and made me feel ashamed and embarrassed for even asking.
Even still OP, I think you should discuss it with your doctor. And don't beat yourself up about it. As everyone has mentioned, there can be a number of factors that can cause a decreased libido, stress being one of them. So, if you're stressing yourself out about it, that's not going to help the situation. And men will always take it personal. So, if it's at all possible, it may be beneficial for your DH to go with you when you see the doctor. It may help him better grasp that he is not to blame.
