A full hormone workup as suggested by Declan would be a good idea...DHEA, cortisol, and all the sex hormones, and T3 and T4 thyroid (not TSH). You might even discover something that can not just improve your sex life, but dramatically improve your mood and your medication as well. Most insurances won't cover them though.
You could blindly try things over the counter, but it's hit or miss and you might throw something else out of whack.
There are plenty of herbs out there can be helpful. Try doing a search on Passion RX. I'm not at all endorsing the product, never tried it, but it gives a good listing of all the ingredients for things to research and consider. Some clinical studies have shown benefits with ginkgo biloba for ssri sexual prodlems, and included a boost of mood as well in some of them.
