Are you a doctor or medical related person? If you're speaking from a professional point of view, then I say can try also...Originally posted by Ignatiaus:Not a good idea.
You'll be just feeding fuel to a fire. Nymphomaniacs can be insatiable in the need of sexual needs.
Seeking a doctor is the best way

But the thing is that she already mentioned she seek doctor's consult but was of no use?
why n how in bisexual makes life easier for her?Originally posted by Devil1976:Why do you think it'll take over people's lives...?
As suggested, find a bf who can match up.. Otherwise you might even wanna consider sex buddies if ya have to and ya think it's ok for yourself...?
Do you happens to be bisexual...? Would probably makes life easier if you are...? Chances of you being sexually satisfied by another female over an extensive period in my opinion could be much higher than with another male in a general sense?
Oh ok... If her case is really too extreme to that extent..? That's why I also feel some things can be quite debatable..? What's really a 'problem' and what's not? It seems that there're more and more 'medical conditions' which can be 'pseudo' or abusively applied these days?Originally posted by Ignatiaus:GPs here usually don't know alot.

She has to see a specialist.

Its a known medical condition
And its treatable with the right drugs
Mmm... This is AA, I shall not elaborate on that...Originally posted by Cool-gal:why n how in bisexual makes life easier for her?
care to elaborate?
hmmm, i tot Nymphomaniac is a female with high sex drive?

Thats right, if it becomes uncontrollable or to the point where the partner cannot fully satisfy her. Then she has to seek treatment.Originally posted by Devil1976:Oh ok...

I think it's not really that uncommon that a partner might not be able to satisfy the other party...? It really should depends on while she's unsatisfied, how bad that is really affecting other aspects of her life...?Originally posted by Ignatiaus:Thats right, if it becomes uncontrollable or to the point where the partner cannot fully satisfy her.

I guess its ok to have a usually high sex drive if the partner can accommodate it
If the appetite becomes insatiable, then its a problem.
Yes, I do. My point is... She'll 1st have to find out if she's really a nymphomanic? I mean there're really quite a handful of people who think that they might have this or that medical or psychological condition when they actually don't....Originally posted by Ignatiaus:The thing with nymphomaniacs is that you cannot measure how much they want & when they want it, it could be 9am, 3pm, 9pm or even 3am.
Even with a normal very virile partner, it may not be enough even though they don't exhibits the behavior of being needy all the time.
Then throughout a normal day she could have bursts of sudden impulses of lust
Sometimes even leading up to sleeping with men she hardly knows.
That would very well affect her life and her relationship.
So to assume that the partner might be enough for her might not be even enough.
Thanks for putting so much into this guys,i haven't been on the forums for a few days because i thought everyone was just laughing at me,so i was kinda upset.i went to a doctor when my problem started affecting my relationship with my ex.he sent me to another doctor for a second appinion,who also diagnosed me as a Nymphomaniac.i was prescribed tablets to calm down my hormones,however they only worked for around 1 hour after i'd taken them.fearing that i'd get addicted tot hem if i was to take them as often as i needed to,i stopped taking them,and have since tried to control it myself,by not giving into it.this is very hard though,as it gives me bad mood swings,for no reason,its like giving up smoking!Originally posted by rainee:think need more explanation from ts rather than us doing all the guesswork...
as in how does she know for sure she is a nympho? how did she find out? did a doctor diagnose her or did she guess it herself?

Problem solved liaoOriginally posted by ShrodingersCat:I think it does not have as much to do with HOW but to do with WHY
I can't see why people think 'having a partner' will solve the problem. A person becomes a nyphomaniac IF his/her libido is affecting her normal life that she wants, and she is unable to control it. It has NOTHING to do with whether your partner can 'satisfy' you or not. It is feeling out of control of the person you are, and you might want to find out the root of your addiction. Understand that may assist you to solve your problem easier.
You might want to see a psychotherapist and not just a general practitioner.
Hope you're getting better!Originally posted by ozzy_gurl:Thanks for putting so much into this guys,i haven't been on the forums for a few days because i thought everyone was just laughing at me,so i was kinda upset.i went to a doctor when my problem started affecting my relationship with my ex.he sent me to another doctor for a second appinion,who also diagnosed me as a Nymphomaniac.i was prescribed tablets to calm down my hormones,however they only worked for around 1 hour after i'd taken them.fearing that i'd get addicted tot hem if i was to take them as often as i needed to,i stopped taking them,and have since tried to control it myself,by not giving into it.this is very hard though,as it gives me bad mood swings,for no reason,its like giving up smoking!![]()
