What does hypersexuality mean?

The so-called hypersexuality refers to excessive sexual desire, which exceeds the requirements of normal sexual intercourse. There will be frequent sexual excitement and an urgent need for sexual life. In addition, the duration of sexual intercourse will also be prolonged. Hypersexuality is mostly a psychological or physiological disease. Hypersexuality is harmful to the body. You must go to the hospital for examination to find out the cause and then receive symptomatic treatment.

The cause of hypersexuality is mainly due to the enhanced excitation process of the sexual center, but most of them are physiological changes, or insufficient knowledge of sex, followed by endocrine deficiencies; for example, a small number of male patients with hyperpituitarism have decreased libido, but in the early stages of the disease they have hypersexuality. In addition, mental illness or certain chronic diseases, passionate love, and excessive sexual stimulation can also lead to hypersexuality.

The causes of hypersexuality can be divided into two categories: physical and psychological. The former include temporal lobe lesions, brain syphilis, excessive use of testosterone, use of marijuana leaves or cocaine overdose, etc. Women with adrenal or ovarian tumors sometimes have an increased sexual desire. Psychogenic types can be seen in certain obsessive-compulsive disorders, mania, schizophrenia and paranoid psychosis, and can also be seen in people who do not have mental illness but have subconscious psychopathy.

The manifestation of hypersexuality is indulging in sexual impulses all day long. In severe cases, the person becomes a nymphomaniac and endlessly demands sexual intercourse. If what he wants is not met, he will become emotionally unstable, anxious, irritable, and masturbate. It is often accompanied by sexual relationship disorders, excessive frequency of sexual intercourse, and even prostitution, soliciting prostitution, and rape.

Many women become mentally confused due to lack of sexual satisfaction and are completely unable to control themselves when sexual desire arises. If this sexual excitement occurs too frequently, too quickly, and too intensely, it is called hypersexuality and requires professional treatment.
