Ladies, does anyone else suffer with feeling like a failure cause you aren't constantly in the mood, and don't know how to describe why you aren't? I always feel like I'm a failure cause I can go weeks without sex or intercourse and be okay, that started when I started my levothyroxin again! my doctors don't care and just blame it on my levels not being right.....but I used to want sex all the time when my levels were completely off and had no issues. can anyone help me!

      I feel the exact same way ! I have zero sex drive ! I'm on levothyroxine as well I use to be on synthryoid whitch I felt better on ! But my levels sky rocket to 19.6 !!! And my Dr switched me to levo and I've been on it for maybe 2 years now ? It may be " normalizing " my levels but I feel like it's messing with everything else !!!! I also have bad anxiety and depression and been stuck Ina funk for almost 5 days now so not sure what it's from šŸ˜ž

      I can relate. But Iā€™m not sure if itā€™s due to my levothyroxine bc Iā€™ve been on it pretty much my whole life. For me I think my libido is more influenced by my depression, which is also influenced by my diabetes and hypothyroidism for sure so itā€™s hard to say. But yeah I feel like my s/o could have sex all the time but im good with a couple times a week. And at times Iā€™ve not been in the mood for months. When I was younger I was def hornier but that probably just due to raging hormones lol

        @NiqueMK I don't either, I used to have tons of energy even after being diagnosed but not taking the meds, and now I feel like a zombie failure.

          @Amanda1993 youā€™re definitely not a failure. Your body is just not how it used to be. I had more energy as well and felt a little more normal I suppose but I guess as the everything progressed it cause more symptoms. Maybe tell your doc and see if they can adjust your meds. I just started taking supplements. So I donā€™t feel any changes yet.
