Nymho is short for Nymphomaniac. It is a Hypersexuality disorder.
Hypersexuality is desire to engage in human sexual behavior at a level high enough to be considered clinically significant.
Hypersexuality is characterized by a debilitating need for frequent genital stimulation which, once achieved, may fail to result in the expected long-term emotional -- or sexual -- satisfaction. This dissatisfaction is what is believed to encourage the heightened frequency of sexual stimulation, as well as additional physiological and neurological symptoms.
The concept of hypersexuality replaces the older concepts of nymphomania (or furor uterinus) and satyriasis. Nymphomania was believed to be a female psychological disorder characterized by an overactive libido and an obsession with sex. In males the disorder was called satyriasis (for etymology of the words, see nymph and satyr). "Nymphomania" and "satyriasis" are no longer listed as specific disorders in the DSM-IV, though they remain a part of ICD-10.
The threshold for what constitutes hypersexuality is subject to debate, and critics question whether a standardized diagnostic threshold even exists. Sex drive varies widely in humans; what one person would regard as a normal sex drive might be deemed to be excessive by some and low by others. The consensus among those who consider this a disorder is that the threshold is met when the behavior causes distress or impaired social functioning.
Hypersexuality may also be expressed in those with bipolar disorder during periods of mania. People who suffer from bipolar disorder may often display tremendous swings in sex drive, depending on their mood. Sometimes this physiological need for sexual activity is much higher than what they would describe as "normal" and at other times it is far below that.

Well the Oxford English Dictionary doesn't have "nymptho" but nympho is a shortened version of nymphomaniac which means an uncontrollable or excessive sexual desire, specially in a woman.

It relies upon what you're asking. Are you asking no count if the English be conscious "god" has a which ability; and if so what's it? Or are you asking no count if "God (the writer" has which ability in who he's and what He does? the 1st question with regard to the Eng be conscious "god"; nicely to be honest, i don't be attentive to what's the commencing place of the be conscious. i assume i will verify online, yet that must be me purely regurgitating what somebody else has written. I even tend to think of of the Eng be conscious "god" to consult with "a or the writer". while used of the biblical God, then i might consult with "God" as which ability "the uncreated writer who's complete of power and ought to; a king who has the excellent and ability to choose, yet isn't constrained to a actual form" As for no count if the God of the Bible has which ability... i might say that the question is the incorrect way around: the God of the Bible is the flexibility via which ALL else has which ability. No situation could have which ability till the God of the Bible is truly who He says he's. I comprehend then that this suggests that one has to settle for that the God of the Bible - one million - Exists 2 - might nicely be experienced via mankind 3 - The Bible is a correct account of God talking with mankind (in its unique language) i assume what ought to help answer the 2d question is "Why could something have which ability?" Or greater advantageous nonetheless "Why are people finding for which ability in issues?" throughout the time of ALL cultures throughout the time of all of recorded historic past... wish this permits
