I am in my 20's and strangleye enough I've got low sex drive, even though I love to experiement and try new things. My boyfriend and I have kown each other for 2 years and we only do it couple times a week. Sometimes it's the best time I ever have, however, sometimes I just don't get turned on and have no sex drive. It seems as though a lot of males go through this and I am not too sure if it's normal

judging by the name of the contraceptive you take it is a three hormone version. The varying hormone levels in the pill can interfere with libido-yes, even after a period of "good times" (high libido), you may need to change your pill until you find the right one for you. A single "mono"-type of pill my help. This keeps you at a constant level of libido.
your cycle, with a pill is scientifically controlled-if you like. This does in NO WAY = the individuals "normal-cycle" therefore, it may not suit your body..

The pill can be one reason but that is not the only reason. You could also have a chemical in balance called FSD Female Sexual Dysfunction.
More and more woman are coming out saying they have it and further research is still needed.
It can happen for numerous reason. Medicines, pregnancy, everyday stress and a chemical imbalance.
There are medicines out there that can help this kind of like Female Viagra. But you have to talk to your gyno first and see what she recommends.
Good luck

It's also entirely possible that other stressors are making your sex drive lower than usual. If you haven't had enough sleep, are stressing about work or money or the relationship, any of these things individually or together can lower your sex drive.
If you're seriously concerned, see your gynecologist. He or she can check your hormone levels, adjust your birth control if necessary, and properly diagnose what's going on.

Anti depressants can lower your libido.
