After starting Birthcontrol idk y i can't get wet

I used to be "normal" wen i could be with my boyfriend and he'd do the simplest thing that would turn me on and i'd get wet. I even would have to wear liners durning a certain time of the month after my period cause i got wet so often. Now after i'm starting my 3rd month of birthcontrol and every since i started, i don't get as wet like i used to. And it makes it harder to have sex. I was on yaz for 2 months and i switched to orthotricyclen lo for my 3rd month to c if it changes. Does any1 know y i haven't been getting wet?

It is Def. your hormone levels. In a normal cycle you will have about 1 week of dry days after your period (which are considered potentially " fertile" days) than about 1 week of "wet" days (which are your fertile days or the days that you can conceive ) , than about 2 weeks of dry days again (which are the non-fertile days) and your period starts again. There is a great web site that you can get info about NFP a natural way to postpone pregnancy without any side effects or harmful chemicals. www.ccli.org  its the best place for all kinds of info and links. it answers a lot of Qs

Probably because your hormone levels have evened up and you may not have enough of the one that makes you 'wet'.  It's probably the level of oestrogens.

Either use a lubricant during sex or change your pill again.
