GP/OBGYN workup: Ask your GP or your OBGYN to do a complete workup to determin if there is an organic reason for the low libido. If none is found, consider going to a reputable psychotherapist to work through the emotional issues brought on by trauma that concern your sexual development and sexuality in general.

You may also want to talk to your doctor about your treatment options. Your symptoms deserve careful evaluation to include history and exam. Consider hormone replacement therapy. Your doctor may want to evaluate for depression as well. Wish you well!
