Well you are not alone, once many women go into menopause they lose their sex drive. I feel for you. 🫂💜 Ask your doctor or get a referral for a specialist and see if there's anything that may help. Also try taking black cohosh! - Look into couple counseling & fun games to do together. I know it's tiring with a toddler - try it - just once a week set aside a hour for just you both. They have some really good couple intimacy games on Amazon. Speak up! Even if your sexual desire isn't there, are there any things your husband likes? Ask him. Marriage is a compromise ! Try Tantric massage! I would suggest taking a step out the box and make a pro and con list and see what outweighs. You already are going in the right direction check out some local support groups ! Reevaluate your situation - going to a counselor would give you guys a mediator and so some meaningful exercises that may strengthen your marriage! Just some friendly tips, no judgement here + follow your intuition 🫂 you are not alone 💜

You have to ask yourself if you’d be happier without him, if the answer is yes, then you know. If you know that being together will make either of you less happy, then you know. It’s really difficult trying to navigate a relationship that is failing and I really feel for you. Sex is such a small part of a relationship, the companionship trumps it every day. When someone makes it the be all and end all, it really makes you question the foundation of the relationship. I just think we should be happy with the partner we choose and vice verse
