sex drive dissapeared?

So I'm 25 and on BCP (Ortho-Tri). I don't know what's going on but for the last two months I have had absolutely no sex drive. I used to be a very, ah, amorous person and lately I'm just not in the mood, and when I do I'm completely dry down there and its really uncomfortable. I'm as attracted to my DF as ever and I'm worried this might impact our relationship.

I've also gained several pounds recently, which is weird because my eating/exercise habits haven't really changed. I know I'm not pregnant. I just can't figure out what the heck is going on with me... is it my birth control? I've read that loss of libido can be a side-effect but I've been on it for years and never had a problem before. Am I just getting old? What is happening to me?

Thanks for listening...
Cheers,
M
