Abstract

Hypersexuality or the current Compulsive Sexual Behaviour Disorder according to ICD 11 involves a pattern of recurrent, intense, and excessive preoccupation with sexual fantasies, urges, and behavior that individuals struggle to control. It has been noted in literature to be associated with several focal brain lesions, though hypersexuality in Multiple Sclerosis is considered to be rare. We present a case of a young female who presented to us with hypersexuality as a presenting complaint and was later was suspected to have multiple sclerosis with positive MRI and CSF findings. Though a multitude of psychotropics were given to curb the hypersexuality, the prognosis was guarded.
