INSUFFICIENT LEANING

Is it true that bipolar disorder raises sexual desire during mania and lowers it during depression?
Unclear. Only a small qualitative pilot study and a symptom dataset touch on sexual drive in bipolar disorder; the pilot suggests sexual drive follows affective episodes but hedges the depression link, and the dataset merely lists sexual activity as a symptom without direction. No retrieved source fully establishes that mania raises and depression lowers sexual desire.
