I can appreciate what you are saying. I also have "been there". What really helped me is a product on my site called Vital Vulva Wild Yam Salve as a lubricant. I love that stuff. If it is ever painful, that is a great solution. Natural yet effective. If we plan a date, then I try to make it a big deal like doing my make-up differently, doing my hair and even dressing up in a little frilly, sexy outfit. That makes it more fun. You can pretend to be someone else if you want. Become a character. Sometimes we have a picnic in bed with wine, cheese and good bread. Just by doing things differently makes a difference to me. And my husband loves that too, anything that is not routine. If none of this helps or you have tried these things, please email me and we will think of something else. Take care and have fun. Sheri Michele,

However, menopause for me has been very different. My libido is kaput. I can't get it going. Now,if I just push through the beginning and pretend (I hate to admit that),everything is fine- better than fine. For me, it's just getting going. I've been to three different doctors. All of them say hormones would help, but I can't take them. I wrote a funny post about it at bodaciousboomer.com. If you know something I don't please get in touch. I'm open to all suggestions; and my husband would be thrilled. Hi Sheri.I really enjoyed your article. However, menopause for me has been very different. My libido is kaput. I can’t get it going.
