Not fornication, but the disease: hypersexuality recognized genetic disease

In all the time overly sexually active people, regardless of gender, considered completely healthy, but called Horny. Now you can't say it, at least in Europe and the USA, as you can go under court for infringement of the rights of an unhealthy person. After the recent opening of Swedish scientists lascivious people are called sex addicts, regret and even cure.

The diagnosis of "hypersexual disorder" is recognized in many countries of the world and even in 2010-listed in the United States in the "Diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders" – DSM5. Before this new disease was recorded in European medical regulatory documents.

Now called too loving a man a dog or a maniac somehow not with his hands, and the woman might be a known term and does ashamed. Still – we are civilized people and aware that over the disease to laugh a sin, because man is not guilty that his health is so deteriorated.

What about the fact that promiscuity caused the disease, doctors figured out relatively quickly. But to find the causative agent of this ailment did not succeed. And recently, joint work of scholars from the University of Uppsala (Department of Neuroscience at Uppsala University, Sweden) and Karolinska Institute (Andrology/Sexual Medicine Group (ANOVA) at Karolinska Institutet) has finally yielded results.

It turns out that the causes of the disease – hormonal. The team of highly qualified doctors, headed by Professor Adrian Bostrom (Adrian Boström) watched the many settings of the two control groups, one of which consisted of overly sexually active people, and the other is normal.

First, the researchers drew attention to epigenetic processes, namely methylation in which the activity of certain genes is suppressed as unnecessary. It was observed that the hypersexual people methylation has been violated.

While the genes responsible for the production of the hormone oxytocin, nothing held back and a biologically active substance produced in the body with the excess. This hormone enhances libido and lust for sexual gratification, both for men and women, causing them to become too active sexually.

The worst thing is that oxytocin affects a person like a drug, bringing him pleasure and thus prompting for a new adventure on the love front. Of course, in this case, it is difficult to avoid habituation and most loving person there is.

To deal with this scourge difficult, as no oxytocin do not. The fact that it increases the trust of one person to another and, as I suspect the scientists involved in the emergence of love between a man and a woman. So the method of treatment has not yet been invented, and patients around. Scientists believe that hormonal disorders nature has given 5-6 percent of the planet's inhabitants.

We can say that 500 million people are in need of medical care. Psychiatrists, who by the nature of their activities have to deal with such patients, say that among them there are very different contingent. Someone just can not imagine myself without pornography and Masturbation, and someone wants extreme sex, for example, on the roof, in the Elevator or toilet airliner.

Such patients try to treat in specialized clinics, applying, in addition to medicines, hypnosis, physiotherapy and various restorative procedures. Among patients of these medical institutions of many world stars such as Kevin spacey, Harvey Weinstein, Kate Mos, tiger woods.

Can you identify yourself from this illness, or need certainly to contact the experts and to do expensive tests? Now, when the malady is known by almost all doctors say that to identify yourself unhealthy sexual addiction is a snap.

Have hypersexual disorder there are seven major symptoms:

1. People understand that does not control their behavior;

2. There is the understanding that the satisfaction of desires will follow inevitable retribution;

3. There is a desire to change yourself and get rid of the excessive activity;

4. For pleasure requires more and more sex;

5. Search sexual partners became a part of life and takes up more time;

6. For a quick hit you are sacrificing important things in your life;

7. Sex is perceived as a way to lighten the mood.

In addition, an important feature of this dependence is that the person at least six months of pursuing sexual fantasies and impulses. If the patient with poor control, then the diagnosis can be made without laboratory tests of blood and urine.

But remember that the important all these symptoms, or to talk about hypersexual according to the hormonal failure is impossible.

It turns out that the majority of people who consider themselves absolutely healthy, really sick. In addicts, alcoholics, gluttons and gamers got now and sex addicts. Science is finding more and more different conditions, needing treatment and will soon be able to meet any most strange deviation, in terms of research and years of observations.
