if you're a candidate, and this is where a good ob/gyn comes in, check to see if you qualify for vaginal estrogen that stays locally and at least helps lubricate drying tissue there. Pretty tough to feel sexy when our bodies are essentially bone dry. 
Also, I'd recommend erotica or reading material (if you like to read) that has some sex scenes. If you read it often enough, somewhere in the back of our mind, the old triggers decide to kick in again. Not all at once and certainly not overnight but it happens.
Hang in there! Takes some patience on everyone's part, as Penny said. Love is about mo than sex but sex helps.
