มีอารมณ์ /mii aarom/ is the common euphemism for this, basically 'to be in the mood'. The term isn't rude, but that still doesn't mean you'll be wanting to talk about sexual arousal with just anyone.

เสียว /siao/ refers to sensations brought on by sexual stimulation, and may be uttered as an exclamation in response to such. (เสียว is not always sexual though -- เสียวฟัน is shooting pain in a tooth/teeth.)

There's also เงี่ยน, which is I think, a little cruder than some of the above examples.

[rakloke 3]

There are two more, " ง่าน" and " อยาก ".

ง่าน is a slang and a bit less rude than " เงี่ยน ". This word has a funny sense in it but should be used with your intimates only.

อยาก is in the middle between มีอารมณ์ and เงี่ยน, in terms of politeness / rudeness of spoken language.

I don't want to include the two rhetorical / formal terms, มีราคะ and มีกำหนัด.

I just remembered the term which is not so rude as " เงื่ยน ".

" เสี้ยน " is a slang often used by close friends.
