Is there any medication or surgical option that can temporarily reduce or stop sexual thoughts I'm feeling really overwhelmed by them lately and need some relief

While medication and surgery can sometimes help manage unwanted sexual thoughts or urges, they are generally not the first line of treatment and may not be suitable for everyone. Medications like SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) and anti-androgens may be considered, but they often have side effects and are not a quick fix. Surgery, such as deep brain stimulation, is more invasive and carries risks. It's crucial to discuss these options with a qualified healthcare professional who can assess your specific situation and recommend the most appropriate course of action.
