Why am I so horny?

Feeling horny is normal and natural. It's something almost all humans experience, but every now and then our bodies decide to amp it all up a few notches and send continual sexy thoughts and feelings throughout our bodies creating throbby, pulsing, sexy sensations that just won't seem to go away. While by no means definitive, we've come up with some of the more common reasons this might be happening, and some solutions to help sort you out.
It could be hormonal
For the most part our emotions, and the way we express them, is chemical. Hormones and other chemicals flood into our systems and make our brains and bodies act out in heightened ways, and horniness is no different. For cis women (and I'm talking purely biologically and absolutely not personally or emotionally) our bodies are designed to carry babies, and the way to get babies inside us is to have sex, and the best way to have sex is to WANT to have sex... So when our bodies begin the biological process of ovulation, so too does the brain begin to release the feel-good chemicals that set our bits tingling and heighten our desire to connect physically with someone else, so it's no surprise that many, many women report that they are super horny during that time of month. Just as an aside, you're also really, REALLY fertile during that time so please be aware of that if babies aren't on your immediate agenda.
New relationship vibes
Almost in the same way that the start of your ovulation can kickstart the chemical rush, so too can meeting someone new and starting to feel those exciting new relationship feelings bring on the dopamine surge. All those fun, flirty texts and first dates. The courting and seduction and promise in the air of love and lust and future adventures... All of these new, exciting things can put a spring in your step, showing you the beauty of the world around you, bringing meaning and heart to trashy song lyrics.. and of course, make you want to jump their bones at every opportunity.
You're having great sex
Sex is kind of like Pringles... You know, once you pop etc etc... See the thing is, those bits of our bodies that get stimulated during sex, they can be greedy little bits, and the more attention they get, the more they want! The friction and rubbing and pressure and climaxing are all sensations that linger, and just the very slightest pulse or throb or tingly reminder that so often comes after an amazing sex session can set it all off again, which then makes those bits even more sensitive and heightened to touch and memory, which starts that cycle again and... well, I'm sure you get the idea...
Lots of Masturbation
I mean, basically the same as above... but you don't have to wait for anyone else to be there before you start... Also for a lot of people, porn and erotica and other masturbation aids can be a part of that recall/flashback memory, which can make you want to dive back into your own pants and play away in your own intimate fantasy world.
Pregnancy
There are so many different chemicals and hormones and things happening to your body during pregnancy that can work in direct conflict to how you feel, and it can all get a little confusing, but it's also all completely normal and you'll start to hear all sorts of stories from the mothers in your life. One thing the majority of them will agree on is how horny they could get during certain trimesters and how different yet amazing sex while pregnant felt. I mean, firstly there's those insane surges of hormones that will turn car commercials into tear-jerking epics, then there's the increased blood flow to your vulva and clitoris, the increase in vaginal lubrication, the changing and swelling of your breasts, even the texture of your skin can become softer and more touchable... Yeah, there's something pretty nice about sex in pregnancy... not to mention the fact that you don't need to use birth control.
I also must acknowledge that by the end of most pregnancies there's absolutely more of a "don't fucking touch me unless you're taking this fucking thing out of me omg when will it ennnnddddd" mood.... But there are some very sexy, very horny sweet spots in the middle.
New Lease on Life
When life is good and fun and exciting, and you're doing new things and loving the fuck out of who you are and what you do... Well of course the positivity will translate to your insides and, yep, you guessed it, those hormones and chemicals will flow to all of your feel-good places. Starting a new exercise regime and feeling great about your new body. Being in a new job and finally getting the respect and money you deserve. Paying off a debt. Connecting with yourself spiritually. Whatever it is, when you feel like the best version of you, when everything is falling into place, it's not surprising your body wants to feel as good as it can feel too.
The best way to combat all this horniness is, well, to either have sex/masturbate/otherwise rub one out somehow - which could be, as seen above, counter-productive to your aim... or maybe try distracting yourself until it goes away. Going for a long walk or a swim can get some of that restless energy out. Meditation or other spiritual exercise could also be a way to redirect the energy within. But if you're worried it's affecting your life, and that you might have some form of hyper-sexual disorder (these do exist and can be quite life-debilitating) then please go and see your doctor for her/his professional advice.
