What causes overactive libido

Hypersexual disorder, or an overactive relationship drive, normally entails obsessive thoughts of relationship, a compulsion to perform sexual acts, a loss of control, or sexual habits that carry potential problems or risks.

Compulsive sexual behavior is sometimes called hypersexuality, hypersexuality disorder or sexual addiction. It’s an excessive preoccupation with sexual fantasies, urges or behaviors that is difficult to control, causes you distress, or negatively affects your health, job, relationships or other parts of your life.

While there’s no age limit when it comes to being active in bed since relationship drive depends on several factors, research suggests that the libido in women is highest between the ages of 18 and 24. One in four women also said that they had the best relationship of their life between ages of 18 and 20.

Is there such a thing as ‘too high’? According to the Mayo Clinic, a high libido potentially becomes a problem when it results in sexual activity that feels out of control, such as sexual compulsion. This is also known as hypersexuality or out of control sexual behavior (OCSB).
