Libido ONLY before Period. Why?

[Dolor_es]

I am turned on ONLY the day before period, which means I am so horny and restless like if I was possessed :)
The other days during the cycle - I have no crave for sex at all :( Null, zero!!! No desire, no arousal, no orgasm!

My sexual life is particulary non-exsistent. ;'-( Just imagine: I am eager only for 1 day out of 30, its so hard to fit in with the date, also its impossible to maintain any relationship, while your  sexual needs are so minor.

I would be grateful for any suggestion, or proffesional advice: WHAT HORMONAL CONFIGURATION IS THE KEY? If I knew-then I would try to 'copy'  this balance.

Its hard to examine the hormonal level- they fluctuate during the cycle, and also they are being relased in a pulsatile manner, I did it once, and the levels where in range. :( and lab test are very expensive.

I have been looking for an answer for my problem on the internet-and there is no satisfactory answer so far.

ANY SUGGESTIONS?  Has anyone gone through the same experience?


P.s. Please dont write about 'anxiety for getting pregnant', low self-esteem, or any other psychological cliches.. I am able physically an psychically to perform sex.

I have an answer, I have checked levels of my hormones BEFORE period when my libido is high - this is what I have discovered:

Estradiol 1414 pmol/l   -2 times higher than it should be!!!!
Progesterone 81,6 pmol/l - within range
(I have also constantly heightened Testosterone level.)

It appears that levels of my hormones before period-in Luteal Phase, show a pattern, that is characteristic for another Phase- Ovulation, (which sounds logical while explaining why I am aroused :)  ).

So it means that The Key to female libido is....Very High Estrogen.

Extra horniness is sometimes a symptom/form of PMS.  The zero horniness during the month is unusual.  While some people complain that the pill decreases their libido, the hormonal control of it might help yours.  It's worth a try, and much, much cheaper to try out than getting hormone levels throughout the month.

Hi Dolor, I just did a read up for you and if you google myhormonesmademedoit, you will find a 4 week simple lay out, and from reading that I would say its you hormones there out of wack, upside down.
From what I read they should be on the low side when yours are high, so from that I would say you would need blood testing for the whole month to get your hormones checked, and the important day would be the last day of your cycle.
Good Luck
