I am 38 years old (male) and my sex drive is much higher than it was 20 years ago, is this normal? Or am I sick?

This is not a joke so please don't make fun of it. I don't know what it is but sometimes I feel like 20 times more aroused than when I was 18. Not sure if it's a midlife crisis or am I sick? Any men out there around my age or older who feel "hornier" now than they did when they were much younger? It's kind of annoying and weird but at the same time kind of exhilarating. The most embarrassing thing is well, getting a H-O in the middle of a meeting or some other inopportune time.

    I don't know about "hornier" but I'm older than you and I have hardly changed at all since I was a teenager. In any way, even, including athletic performance. But I wasn't particularly sexually motivated as a teenager either, at least not as teenagers go (and my knees hurt like a sunab!tch even then too). I doubt this is a problem. It's probably more likely influenced by your exposure to your environment like social interaction or drifted as your interests have drifted than anything internal/physiological.

    If you are worried, see a doctor, you just may be one of those whose sex drive, gets higher.
