A woman who is always willing to have sex seems to be every man’s desire, however, that desire escapes reality when you come across a nymphomaniac. Clinically, it is not classified as a disease, but as compulsive sexual behavior.
The team of experts at Mayo Clinic It is also defined as “hypersexuality” or “sexual addiction” and consists of an “excessive preoccupation with sexual fantasies, impulses, or behaviors that are difficult to control”. Generally, it is only associated with women.
Imagine having a girlfriend or wife who is never sexually satisfied, who wants more and more, pushing your capabilities to the limit and wanting to suspend or interrupt any other activity to have new sexual encounters.
Experts suggest that nymphomania produces “general distress” in that woman, negatively affecting other aspects of your life, such as work, family, interpersonal relationships, and the romantic (non-sexual) part of a courtship or marriage.
In the case of men, which could also occur, it is not called “nymphomania”, but “satiriasis”. In this scenario, your partner might want to have sex with you every day (No joke!).
If you have a nymphomaniac girlfriend, the first thing you need to do is detect the symptoms and the most fundamental is sex addiction. Some signs are: recurrent sexual fantasies and urges, using sex as medicine or therapy, and feeling guilty or remorse after having asked for and followed through with an intimate encounter.
Why nymphomania occurs
According Mayo Clinic, There are at least three reasons that are associated with the brain:
Chemical-brain imbalance: It occurs when some neurotransmitters, such as serotonin and dopamine, are very elevated, producing uncontrollable sexual urges.
Changes in brain pathways: When a woman goes through a sexual encounter that was very pleasurable, there may be a “reconfiguration” of the brain pathways, which leads to a constant need to receive those sexual stimuli again. It is a very curious reason.
Disorders affecting the brain: When a woman suffers from dementia, Parkinson’s syndrome and epilepsy, sexual behavior can be affected due to these brain disorders, causing her sexual perspective to be altered.
The medical recommendation is that the person attend a psychological review, so that nymphomania can be diagnosed and treatment can begin to reverse these behaviors. Otherwise, there may be severe depression, anxiety and the risk of contracting sexually transmitted infections, due to the need for sex with unstable partners.
