Hi Lucy, According to me sex surge is a good thing but in the long term, it will ruin your married life if you indulge yourself with others for the sexual activity. the best idea is discuss with your husband and try out new ways of intimacy. Maybe that will help you.

Perimenopause can actually increase your sex drive for a while, which is likely what you’re experiencing. For some women, however, the exact opposite is true. Some women have sex drives that dramatically decrease during that hormonal shift.

From what I’ve read, sometimes the drop in estrogen can lead to an increase in testosterone, at least in relative terms – not that your body is making more testosterone all of a sudden, but there is more of it in comparison to estrogen, if that makes sense. So that could be what is amping up your sex drive.

You might as well ride that wave for as long as it lasts and enjoy it — with your husband or alone (or both).

Aromatase (use a search engine on aromatase) can convert testosterone to estrogen so the two are tied together. Maybe perimenopause interferes with the production of aromatase in some cases and so the testosterone doesn't get converted to the degree that it was before.

I think what your feeling is great ! many would be jealous. Hopefully you have great communication with your hub and you can both try some fantasies before you cannot. Communication is everything. If not you still need to communicate or ask youself if your ok not seeking those fantasies.
