I just don't worry about it. I have very little or no sex drive but who cares? I guess if I were married to someone who wanted sex it would be a problem but since I'm not, it's just no problem for me.

As for the question about morphine and lowered sex drive, heroin makes it really low, I know. My late husband was a heroin addict and even when he quit the drug, he never really seemed to have one. Morphine is a close relative of heroin, so probably the same thing occurs with that.

Oh, and about the menopause question, of course hormones change and lessen during menopause. I was more interested in sex before menopause, but think of it---before menopause, when you're in your childbearing years, you're made so that you're going to have more interest in sex for procreating. After menopause, then it's natural that your hormones change so that you don't care so much about sex. Men continue to have sexual desire into older ages because they can still father children into old age.
