Background: This chronology aims to provide an overview of the views on nymphomania in the history of German academic psychiatry over the past 200 years.
Aim: The aim of this study was to answer the following questions: What are the continuities over that period with regard to the etiology, diagnosis, classification or therapeutic recommendations? What changes can be observed? Was the increase in sexual desire in women seen as a disease or rather as a symptom? What significance did psychiatry attribute to female sexuality at a certain point in time? What reasons can be identified for the perceptions made and conclusions drawn at a certain time?
Methods: A cursory review of the most influential German-language psychiatric textbooks of the respective period was conducted in chronological continuity. Relevant passages were identified, analyzed in detail and compared with each other, taking the historical context into account.
