Do you sometimes wonder about what’s healthy sexual drive and where nymphomania starts? Read on to know the signs
You like to have sex. Good for you, who doesn’t? Sex is the best. But lately, have there been some problems in your life because of your sexual habits. Have such thoughts been interfering with your daily life and your schedules? That might be Hypersexual Disorder better known as Nymphomania.
Here is an ironic fact, Victorian doctors actually feared that “eating rich food, consuming too much chocolate, dwelling on impure thoughts, reading novels, or performing “secret pollutions” (masturbating) overstimulated women’s delicate nerve fibres which led to nymphomania.”
