The concept of "male hyperexcitement" can be viewed from two perspectives: situational (temporary) strong sexual desire, painful sensations caused without execution, and increasing sexual desire (satiriasis, hypersexuality). In the latter case, the permanent sexual arousal after ejaculation will not disappear and will significantly worsen the quality of life: men cannot concentrate on any activity, nervousness, depression. In fact, this hypersexuality is similar to priapism-an unreasonable painful erection that does not subside after ejaculation. The cause can be physical and psychological.
Causes and symptoms of hypersexuality
In young men, due to elevated testosterone levels, frequent sexual overexcitement until spontaneous ejaculation is normal. This is the so-called hypersexuality during adolescence. The main symptoms are:
- Feeling of enlargement of the genitalia ("ringing eggs");
- Increase the sensitivity of the sensual zone;
- Intermittent fever and sweating;
- Increased urination, often accompanied by soreness in the lower abdomen and waist.
Urologists usually do not pay much attention to complaints of hypersexuality from young patients. The doctor will send them to the psychiatrist, but just in case, they will prescribe a test for genital infections.
Abnormal hypersexuality can be congenital (primary) or acquired. The form of congenital hypersexuality may be related to the pathology of the central nervous system, endocrine disorders and mental disorders. Acquired forms are divided into physiological and pathological. In the first case, the increase in libido may be caused by stress or high levels of testosterone in the blood.
Usually, the pathological form develops in the context of the organic pathology of the central nervous system. They are caused by the following factors:
- Nerve infection (encephalitis, meningitis).
- Head trauma.
- Vascular disease and brain tumors.
- Poisoning caused by the use of alcohol or drugs.
Hypersexuality in adulthood may be caused by endocrine disorders-stress hormones or excessive testosterone (due to hyperfunction of the testes or adrenal cortex).
Neurotic hypersexuality develops based on feelings of inferiority towards oneself and lack of confidence in one's male solvency. In this case, the constant desire for sexual intercourse is an unconscious attempt to prove to yourself and others that there is no problem in an intimate life.
During the disappearance of sexual function, men at retirement age may experience neurotic hypersexuality. In this case, the reason is a subconscious desire to "stay in the team" to make up for what he may lack in his youth.
The difference between normal hypersexuality and pathological hypersexuality
The boundary between hypersexuality caused by strong sexual constitution and hypersexuality caused by pathological conditions is arbitrary. Some men need sex every day, and more than once. If this process brings happiness and satisfaction, while professional, creative and social activities will not be affected (demand structure of development), this is normal. In this case, we can talk about high levels of vitality instead of pathological overexcitement.
Natural primary hypersexuality may be due to genetic characteristics. Men whose fathers are sexually active are more likely to follow in their footsteps.
Satyriasis is a compulsive painful need for sex, which is almost impossible to get rid of. Over time, these men tend to be sexually perverted because normal relationships become too dull for them. There is almost no time spent in other aspects of life. This hypersexuality may be fictional or it may be manic. The latter form is more difficult to correct.
The physical symptoms of hypersexuality in adult men are similar to those of adolescence:
- Even from flashing pornographic pictures and fantasies, you can get an erection for a long time;
- Premature ejaculation
- There is a traction in the lower abdomen.
A significant difference between pathology and normalcy is that men with strong sexual desire can quickly switch to other types of activities (work, daily life) after meeting their physiological sexual needs. Pathological hypersexuality makes you immediately look for new possibilities for sexual intercourse.
Agitation and testicular pain
Testicular pain due to unconscious sexual arousal occurs in many men, not necessarily hypersexuality. The degree of discomfort varies from person to person. The pain may be so severe that it is difficult for a man to walk. This is because too much blood flows to the genitals, causing the nerve endings to be squeezed. It is enough to let the patient relax, or use anesthetic or antispasmodic.
The cause of pain during hyperexcitability may be varicocele or genital infection, whose activity weakens the testicular tissues and destroys their normal structure. If symptoms occur frequently, you should consult a urologist.
If the discomfort in the groin has been clearly felt due to excessive excitement, then masturbation or sex will not bring relief. On the contrary, the orgasm may be blurred, and ejaculation may be very painful. The pain will last for about two hours, and some men will not go away within a few days. You can use aspirin to relieve discomfort. Peppermint infusion will help relax smooth muscles.
The only way to prevent pain is to avoid excessive stimulation. If there is no intimate date, and sex is not ruled out, it is better to ejaculate in advance. This sounds strange, but this option is better than then, because "rollback" will experience many hours of acute pain, which actually disappears from normal life.
Other problems with hypersexuality
Anxiety increases in men, and the inability to control the degree of sexual desire can become a serious problem. Any provocation, including in public places, will cause an erection, which is difficult to hide.
There is often an absurd situation: sexual overexcitement during foreplay (usually accompanied by the release of lubricant from Cooper’s glands) ends with the penis falling off during the introduction or premature ejaculation.
Hypersexuality prevents you from focusing on important work issues. Such men cannot concentrate and show initiative, which is why they often lose promising jobs.
How to get rid of obsessive-compulsive disorder
The treatment of hypersexuality depends on the cause. First of all, physiological factors need to be eliminated. To do this, you should first see a urologist to make sure that the reproductive system is free from disease and to check hormone levels. A neuropathologist (neurologist) will help identify problems with the brain and spinal cord.
Psychological hypersexuality is handled by psychologists-sexologists. You can only help the patient when he is aware of the problem and wants to get rid of it. The choice of method depends on how rich a man’s private life is, what other ways he can enjoy besides sex, and what efforts he is prepared to make for treatment. If the patient is unable to concentrate and interact with the psychologist, hypnosis is used. Parallel to psychotherapy, if necessary, prescribe antidepressants, tranquilizers, and hypnotics.
What to do at home
Sexual excitement lingers from morning to night. If the hypersexuality is not caused by a physical disease, then you can try the following methods to reduce it:
- Take a cold bath, empty your bladder, or do daily activities. It must be remembered that morning erection is normal and there is no sign of vascular impotence.
- It is recommended that you use all your free time during the day. Endurance training (moderate aerobic exercise, low-weight repetition) can help relieve sexual tension. Conversely, heavy weight exercises, squats, mixing, and leg raising exercises can lead to genital activation.
- Before going to bed, it is recommended to take sedatives so that mental and emotional activities begin to slow down.
You can try to cope with hypersexuality with decoctions of calming herbs or medicinal herbal preparations. It is important to consider that these funds, especially valerian, only start to work after a few days of regular use (cumulative effect).
If the hypersexuality is caused by alcohol or drug poisoning, the situation cannot be corrected if the bad habits are not changed. You can help your body remove toxic substances by taking intestinal adsorbents.
in conclusion
Excessive excitement and hypersexuality are worse than decreased libido. In the latter case, many men lead mature social lives, succeed in professional activities, and pay little attention to the lack of sex. Dependence on it can make a person emotionally (and subsequently physically) disabled. Real hypersexuality rarely occurs. Basically, the man himself cultivates the need to enter into sexual relations in his mind. This kind of thinking is implanted by a certain information environment and environment. Experts believe that the higher a person’s level of intellectual development and the higher the degree of employment, the less likely it is to develop into any kind of mental addiction.
