Birth control pill may influence a woman's sexual satisfaction, says new study


Diminished pleasures: A new study on the effects of birth control pills claims that women who use it may suffer from loss of libido and sexual satisfaction.

A woman’s sexual satisfaction may be influenced by her historical use of the pill, suggest the results of a new study.

According to research carried out jointly by universities in the UK, Scotland and the Czech Republic, women who were on the pill when they met their partner and continued to use it reported greater levels of sexual satisfaction, compared to women who had started or stopped using the pill over the course of the relationship.
