Sex drive issues

Helloooo all...
I know this is going to sound a bit ridiculous, and rather embarrassing and I don't mind teasing so don't worry, but I so hope I get a few serious answers as well.

My sex drive has gone a bit bonkers. well. A lot bonkers.

I don't mean "ooo'er, lookit me, I'm up for it" I actually mean it's becoming very problematic and actually physically painful and very frustrating.
I do "self relive" but about an hour later it's like I may have well not bothered. And it doesn't take much at all to tip me off into having a strong physical response.

I do have a high sex drive, and I have had periods where it's higher than normal but this is actually starting to concern me because it's getting disruptive of functioning. As in, it's physically uncomfortable and distracting. I have finals (seven of them!) coming up in a few days and I really need to focus.

I've looked on the net for information and I thought that perhaps perimenopause (?) might be it, but I have a hormone implant that I've had for 7 years now (it's replaced every 5 years), a coil in the uterus, so I'm not sure I can actually have perimenopause as it's a treatment for it.

This has been going on for a few weeks now. even when I do manage to have a (rare) friend come over for some fun, the next day... may as well have just played golf, cause I'm right back to where I was.

Has anyone had this before? Was there any hormone imbalance that happened (that some how over rode any minipill or etc you might have been taking) or was it some bizarre reaction to stress or?? I did have a concussion two months ago but that can't be it, can it?

normally I'm pretty good at talking to doctors about stuff but I go to a walk in clinic for now until I find a good doctor I don't think I want to really go in and say "oh hai, I'm horny and it's a problem." *eyeball roll*

If you don't want to talk about it up here, can you send me an IM?

Many thanks. And yeah I know this is a little strange!
