Two studies published in the\u00a0Journal of Sexual Medicine<\/i>\u00a0finally put to bed the myth that birth control can kill a woman’s sex<\/a> drive. While it’s true that some women<\/a> do experience a lower sex drive on the Pill, researchers concluded that several factors are more important when it comes to a woman’s libido. Researchers focused on women in long-term, monogamous, heterosexual<\/a> relationships, and measured their desire for solo se<\/a>x versus their desire for sex with a partner to see how their relationship choices affected their sex drive in conjunction with being on birth control.<\/p>\n

The study found that women on non-hormonal birth control had a higher solitary sex drive and that women on hormonal birth control had a higher desire for sex with a partner. It also found that, \u201cwhile birth control did have an effect on sex drive for some women, relationship length and age were much stronger predictors of sexual desire than the type of contraception a woman was on,\u201d reports Bustle. Researchers admit that drawing conclusions about women’s desire can be tricky, but that the study ultimately \u201csheds light on how different types of contraception can affect our sexual appetite and desire.”<\/p>\n
