There are still many options. There is a device that is sold medically as well as in the sex shops. It's a ring that fits on when aroused and maintains the arousal fairly well. You/he can put it on before putting on the condom which should help.
Being in England I imagine you also have access to the cervical cap which might be an option. Female condoms? Sponges? Not sure what all your options are, but there are some that do not involve hormones (which I couldn't take either).

You have to talk about it. That's the most important thing anyone can tell you. You have to be open and honest about how you feel. Then and only then can you make any progress with this issue.
Say it one mo gen!!

Extreme weight gain and mood swings are rare, with the pill - and can be dealt with by taking herbal supplements to counteract the side-effects. The pill is a much improved method of contraception. You could also have contraceptive injections or implants, every 3 to six months....
I would at least try one of these options for three months....it would at least take the pressure off him completely, and permit him to relax. And it might helpyou both talk openly, without being nervous.

Use the BCP as your last resort. Sounds like you have a healthy sex appetite and going on the pill is one way to lose that. Doesn't happen to everybody, but I still haven't met the women who didn't have their libido squashed by that tiny little pill.

Hi Staci,
you have said that- but I still haven't met the women who didn't have their libido squashed by that tiny little pill.
Is thisa scientific fact? i am hearing this for the first time.

Hi cdmohatta - i don't know the scientific aspect of it, but I do believe it is a "side effect" listed by the FDA. I have talked with my doctor and my husband spoke with his after I decided to get off my pills and they both weren't surprised to hear of the change and said it was common. Over the past few years I've talked with many girlfriends about it, and those who were on the pill had a pretty low sex drive, or nothing at all. Four of them have since gone off and had the same results as I did. I think it all depends on how your own bodily hormones react, so the results would be different for everyone. I would just hate to see someone lose a healthy sex drive, it's a terrible thing to waste <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I would consider you two talk about the problem. Not just talk about it once but often maybe after sometimes, your bf will bring something out that has crossed his mind on the incident. Maybe some kind of fear. You will get surrely an idea,, hugssss <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
realise what you are and you will be free of anything that lies in this world
