Sex Drive

Mon, 09/13/2004 - 19:47
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.

Hey folks, there are many people out there who don't have seizures, AND have no sex drive! YOU GOTTA WORK IT BABY!!! Sometimes you just have to "jump in" and get the party started, and then those feelings start to surface! So Ladies ( and Gents),  start cuddling! :)

It is true. We may not have a sex drive but once my husband starts I enjoy. Please dont make your mates suffer. It is just not fair.
