Abstract
Recent studies indicate that the urge to reproduce is not an important source of the female libido. The Herzberg et al. studies showed that 19.8% of the women who stopped taking the pill gave loss of libido as the reason; 29.1% gave headache and 27.9% gave depression as their reasons for discontinuing. Women with a predisposition to depression tend to suffer loss of libido with pills and should not have them prescribed. The Herzberg studies showed women with IUDs to have a substantial increase in libido. The Simon Population Trust report of 1969 reported a very high percentage of increased sexual enjoyment after vasectomization and female sterilization.
