High Libido...!

[Wilma]

OK, Ladies, this one's not pretty and I'm sure it will've come up before...

Though I know many with PCOS have a low libido, I have a ridiculously high one. I don't necessarily view this as a problem as such except, well, it can get quite, shall we say, distracting...

It does vary. I'm a PCOSer who bleeds a lot rather than not at all. Average cycle length, in so far as I have a cycle, is about three weeks at most. Either I have a gushing, painful horrible period which is physically awful and leads to total exhaustion but emotionally fine, or I get a pathetic drippy brown one which lasts for weeks and coincides with the worst PMS-esque moods ever. High libido tends to coincide with the latter sort. In the former sort, I'm so exhausted it's not an issue.

When I'm in a relationship, it's a bonus. Presently I'm single. It's a little annoying...

Anyone else or am I a freak? Or is having a high libido entirely normal and not at all related to PCOS, but I've been conditioned by society into thinking I should be thinking about sex less than I am?!

Hi,

Totally normal, particularly if you're not taking the pill to control your PCOS. It is due to the higher testosterone levels that PCOS creates, so in a way, we want it as much as men! I also find that when I'm not on the pill I am...well....insatiable! It IS distracting, and there were times I seriously couldn't do much else! Luckily (i think?) that isn't the case now as I am on hormones....

Don't know what to suggest really, apart from get a man or a toy xx

I drive my hubby mad with my sexual wants,i could go every night and e is a once a week guy,e usually knows when im due on as i want it even more then,must be the thought of no sex for a week.When i am on then its even worse.I will admit i have had it couple of times while been on very long period,wont recomend it though,not very nice but i will admit i had the best orgasms ever My dad is highly sexed accordong to my mum so just thought i took after him. Even though i get very sexual and i have a basic toy(gift from an ex) i dont feel right to diy.Dosent seem to feel the same without the feel of hubbys weight,emotions etc as with hubby.Hence i get very angry at hubby.If your a freak then so am i so join the PCOS FREAK SHOW

Hi ladies,well last week i spent hours on mobile texting my hubby about my wants and his none wants,it went over about 6 pages of texts and i got no reply at all,knew i wouldnt as like i say e is shy,after a few days and still no sex since the last heatwave i mentioned it to him.I had a text back that basically said that a baby is all i seem to think bout and e is not with me just to get me pregnant,sent him one back and said i felt like i was teating him like sperm donor and i wanted him,not his sperm.Said i had been with him 5 years with no kids and if it was that important i could of had fellas galore for their sperm,well ok not that many but u get my drift.Anyway nothing more was said but i took him a cuppa on tues,my day off and came back down hour and half later with very big smile.Its not perfect yet but getting there slowly.Im putting on less pressure and e talking a bit more.Still not that BFP and prob never will get it but feel a lot more settled last few days.Also brought a few batteries just in case

Firefighter,there is hope,i married at 21,turned out to be total tosser,but there u go,left him at 29,was single and at parents till i was 35 when i went on the net one night and met the love of my life,Ive been with him for 6 half years now,marrid last week for 5.We started out in one bed flat,with a footstool,second hand bed settee and a microwave,badly in debt,and im talking 15 grand,we moved about 18 month ago to 2 bed house which we are buying,and the debt will be gone in next few months.Im still not pregnant after 20 years over in all of trying but i keep hoping. Things will improve,your age is not a problem,allthough i admit i thought mine was when i left my ex,i will never love again,find the right man etc but THERE IS SOMEONE OUT THERE FOR US ALL.Keep on hoping,might take 5 weeks or five years but the right man will come along just when u least expect it.
