Brief Answer:
Take care of her burdens

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX,
Thanks for using healthcaremagic.

Low sex drive in women is due to multiple factors and I will try to suggest you on common factors.

As you said she is hypothyroid and taking treatment, it is important to check the hormone level again. It is better to check every three months after treatment and if there is still low meet your doctor to get proper dosage of medication.

The most common cause at this age is excessive burden in XXXXXXX women. As she is having a young child it is important to share responsibilities so she can find some time for relationship. A small help to her in her daily activities will bring spark in relationship and it is possible that you will find solution.

For majority of XXXXXXX women, emotional bond is an essential component to sexual intimacy. So problems in your relationship can be a major factor in low sex drive. If you have any issues with your wife it is important to solve it with proper discussion altogether.

There are other medical conditions and treatment which could b cause for low sexual interest. If she takes any medication or suffering with any illness feel free to write back to me.

I hope this will help you.

If you have more details feel free to write back to me.
Thanks and regards
