sudden intense interest in men after only finding women attractive for years?

since discovering i like women at 13, i’ve pretty much only been attracted to them and the thought of doing what i do with women with a man was genuinely nauseating. i had crushes on boys throughout elementary/middle school but haven’t felt anything “real” since then. ive only been with/dated women, and have only been able to admire the objective attractiveness of a man in the last few years, but never to the same level i did with women. now, at 20, it’s like a switch has flipped. i’m still very attracted to women, but all of a sudden i want nothing more than to be with a man. and also mustaches are attractive now? like they used to be absolutely disgusting and i was lowkey disturbed by women who told me they liked them. i’m a fairly masculine-presenting and socially anxious woman so im not too optimistic about my chances on the man field, but it’s like some sort of heterosexual drive has awakened within me anyway. i just want to know why this is happening so randomly? i’ve also noticed that a handful of previously proclaimed lesbians i know are now in committed straight relationships? like is this just a weird hormone thing?? like body wants baby???? idk i guess let me know if this has happened to you and whether or not i should like wait this out or something

i’ve been on 40mg of vyvanse for a couple months now and i take occasional breaks especially on slower days. i’ve noticed that once i start to “crash” i get an odd tingling sensation in my head that sort of feels like when you get really intense goosebumps that make the hairs on your arm stand up? but all over my brain and when i itch my head nothing happens. it lasts for about 5 seconds then goes away for a couple but then comes back. this happens for about 30 minutes, then there are random, less intense versions of it the rest of the night. i’m not sure if this is relevant, but when i smoke on days i take my vyvanse i get the same sensation, and i no longer get high the way i used to, just numb and tired. i wanted to see if anyone else has experienced something similar because it kind of concerns me that it’s only happening to my brain and im worried that the the combination is destroying my dopamine receptors or something really important and thats why im feeling this weird shit.
