This is directed mostly towards the women who have been on the diet for at least 3 months because you will have a better answer for me.

What is the average length of time for a woman to recover her sensual/sexy feeling after her period?

I've been at a full dosage of fish oil and supplements for one full cycle now; am one day past my period and am feeling a bit 'off'- no tingles, no desire, not to much of anything.

Is this typical?

To be honest it depends on the length of your cycle. Typically there is a burst right before and first days of period, and then the week before and including ovulation is the other "hot" time.

Although you should have reasonable libido at this time, just not sky-high.

Often women do see a drop post-ovulation until the pre-period boost. But the post-period libido should be decent (or indecent, as the case may be).

Wow Hunting40s, give yourself a break already! You are doing just fine. And you are soooo enthusiastic. How is it going with hubby?

LOL!! Yes, I know. Be patient!!

I am one of those unfortunates that is a perfectionist and wants it all NOW! <sigh>

I'm working on that, really. But it's just not happening fast enough for me! <grin>

Good to know about the libido. I've been feeling so low level, ho-hum in that department for waaay too long, so I am excited to be so... well, excited. And so much more easily aroused.

And Marrena, you are correct. Last night was enjoyable- nothing happened between my man & I, and I was still feeling pleasantly aroused & wanting him.

Guess I better add this next 'chapter' to my other posting.

Thanks again for the encouragement!!
