When I started my first AS cycle I had just split from my long term boyfriend. It was awful, eventually I learned to live with it and chill, maybe a bit of extra masturbation. I did become aggressive towards males that I met whilst out clubbing, a lot of them literally legged it!
Some succumbed but it didn't do much for my reputation since it isn't acceptable for a woman to ask for sex!
I guess what I am trying to say is that you won't die without it and it's only for a short time anyway and may not be worth the possible side effects for your wife.
