Frequently Asked Questions
Is it normal to have a lower sex drive while breastfeeding?
Yes, it's very common. Breastfeeding hormones, particularly prolactin, can lower estrogen levels, which can decrease libido. This is a temporary phase.
What can I do about vaginal dryness caused by breastfeeding?
Using a lubricant during intercourse can help. Water-based or silicone-based lubricants are good options. You can explore different options at kisskiss.ch.
How can I talk to my partner about my changing sexual desire?
Open and honest communication is key. Explain how you're feeling, both physically and emotionally. Reassure them that it's a temporary phase and suggest alternative ways to connect and be intimate.
