Sex Drive
Mon, 09/13/2004 - 19:47Topic: Women With Epilepsy
Does anyone else have limited sexual interest due to their seizure disorder? I have just read that temporal lobe epilepsy can cause affect the sex drive. I personally have no interest in intercourse. I now wonder if this could be why. I'd love feedback.

I was recently dx with epilepsy, I have been married for 17 years and until now have had almost no sex drive. I am taking 600mg of limictal (sp) it seems to have increased my sex drive, thank God. Has this happened to you?

Well, CCS, husbands are, as a whole, never quite satisfied with their wives' sex drives are they so don't let that bother ya. ;) I've come to the conclusion they just see it as one of their little jobs...to pester us for sex. Makes them feel useful. :)
