I've been off of my birth control for about a week and a half and I've been incredibly horny for the last week.
Do you think these are related?

I've certainly had physiological changes that sudden and that dramatic after coming of HBC (Mirena --> not cripplingly depressed took about three days, for instance). Given that it's very common for HBC to affect libido, I'd not be at all surprised.

What kaberett said! When people are having HBC-related issues, loss of libido is certainly one of the possibilities. It may also be that your ovaries are gearing up to ovulation, and putting you in the mindset for sex-during-a-fertile-time! (Mine do that to me occasionally. I scold them.)

Yes, libido changes are definitely within the range of normal when it comes to HBC side effects (http://www.vaginapagina.com/index.php?title=Hormonal_Birth_Control#What_are_the_side_effects_of_HBC.3F). I find that my libido always comes back with a very horny vengeance when I go off of HBC!

p.s. Could you also edit your post to include a descriptive subject line? It will help members use your post as a resource in the future. :) Thanks!

HBC kills my sex drive and I've heard others say it too.
