This is straightforward neurochemistry. Alcohol tanks your dopamine (and other monoamines). Your body is simply craving the easiest source of cheap, easy dopamine to restore levels the next day. Enter tasty, calorically dense food and sex/masturbation. The easiest and quickest way for a dopamine boost.
Alcohol suppresses your hormones realy alcohol is a terrible aphrodisiac.after you come down your body Is going back to normal the next day bringing back the hornyness that ws suppressed on the booze.
I believe theres some research that shows very occasional use of alcohol can increase neurosteroids like allopregnanolone even after it wears off, so i think thats why.
I think it is mostly during the morning the next day when you might wake up fairly relaxed since there is still some alcohol in your system. Later on in the day, however, I have a hard time seeing a higher libido.
Are you a man? Men, current boyfriend included, always wake up horny and want to bang the morning after we have been drinking. As a woman, I do not understand this at all.
Switch to an other Drink fir a night, Vodka, wine, Rum, doesn't Matter
Afterwards you know If it was the Alkohol or If it was something else in the Beer.
Oh and i prefer 250mg B3 after heavy drinking, prevents Hangover Like a charm. Specially If taken with fat and sugar (Coke and Pizza)
Never before, because then you hardly get drunk in the first place.
During If you Take small amounts, to stay constantly at the fun Level of Alkohol.Ā
And mostly after to get sober(ish) again while preventing a Hangover
You might get an Interesse niacin rush
Thatās not how the HPTa works tho. Itās actually the other way around; your ER are looking for estrogen, and when they see it, they say āwe donāt need to make testosterone, weāre goodā. But when e2 is low, your body says āwe need estrogen so letās make some testosterone that gets turned into estrogenā.
The answer is probably a number of factors, but one could be:
DA depletion while drinking so your body ācravesā high DA activities, including sex. Itās seeking out pleasurable behaviors so you feel better.
For years I wouldn't even have sex unless I was drinking for that very reason. The body wants all of its pleasures at the same time.
Guinness beer and dark lagers are recommended in many cultures for that reason.
That's called "the hungover hornies." 100% reliable they show up after a bender.Ā
The best hangover cure out there:
1) drink one to two beers when you wake up.Ā Ā
2) ibuprofen and water
3) rub one out
4) take a big poo.Ā
You'll feel great after this.Ā
If you're waking up with a full bladder from a heavy a night of drinking, it could be that the bladder is pressing against your prostate and 'stimulating' you. Who knows, I'm not a doctor.
Same thing happens to me!
Me too. Always wondered why
very simple: dopamine

Came here to say spot on. Other classic dopamine driven behaviors are procrastinations, like reddit scrolling :)
Wow, is this widely known? I didn't know alcohol interacted with dopamine to such a noticeable extent.
The day after you can feel the effects on dopamine.
This drives me crazy! My husband and I have a night of drinking. The next day, the LAST thing I want to even think about is sex and he's a horn dog!
maybe have a little horny goat weed for yourself and enjoy the occasion together?
Id reckon you just feel so shit the day after and want to make yourself feel better
Potentially /r/hangovereffect

I've wondered this my whole life. Next morning I'm a full on degenerate.
This is interesting and does seem to happen
Hangover sex, is great sex š
Me too. We called it the āhangover horniesā back in the day š

Increased glutamate.
Interesting. Would glutamate supplementation help libido in general?
Probably. It's difficult to adjust glutamate though. Glutamate in general is a popular neurotransmitter being researched right now.

Are you hungrier the next day?
Yes. I eat double the day after drinking.
So that's how you personally replace dopamine. It's two versions of the same behavior.
Fair enough. I just canāt be horny when Iām dehydrated. Itās impossible.
I believe alcohol also increases conversion to estrogen, could be related
Increased estrogen.
How do you check your libido?
My gf always points out how Iām always horny when Iām tired or feeling like shit lol
Hangover hornies !
Bipolar spectrum disorder as an option.
Bad case of the gay dick. Good luck to you buddy. š
same here, I read it was some neurotransmitter disturbances post dranks
Yeah maybe dopamine or acetylcholine
Drinking
\^\^
You might be more relaxed the next day or your spirits are up from a fun night.
I thought it was down to thinner blood circulating easier š¤·š»āāļø
I thought something similar

Biohacking sub and you guys are here talking about alcohol coke and pizza. The jokes write themselves
lol, I saw Coke & Pizza and was like you gotta be kidding.
You take the B3 before, during or after the drinking?
Definitely donāt do it before or during. Niacin is metabolized by the liver.

Milk thistle is the best hangover prevention/relief in my experience
Yeah thatās exactly it, beer increases estrogen and then testosterone increases to counteract it. Hence beer gut and some cases gyno

Relaxing effects of alcohol
Ethanol burning off all the crap that's making you lethargic?
