Brief Answer:
it's not supposed to cause that to women

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

spironolactone may affect a man's sex drive. It's not supposed to cause that to women though. Perhaps you should talk with your endocrinologist or gynecologist first. If they can't identify other potential causes, only then could spironolactone be blamed.

Kind Regards!
