BCPs killing my sex drive!

I've been on low dose BCPs (Mircette) for about 6 years (ages 16-22) and had been loving it until I went on an extended trip to Europe earlier this year. I had forgotten my BCPs back in the states but decided to just go without for a few months since my BF wasn't with me anyway. I had no idea how low my sex drive had gotten until I went off the pills, let's just say I was very sorry my BF wasn't able to visit. So, I am home now and back on the sex-life killing pills and I'm dying to go back off them and get my sex drive back. I'm just wondering if this is a common problem, and if anyone has a recommendation for non-hormonal BC that won't interfere with my fertility, since I do want to have kids eventually. Thanks!!
