So I just noticed something really odd today. I got my period and I've been really diligent about marking it on the calander to make sure I'm staying healthy in that area. So I got it on the 2nd of this month and then today. It's been 29 days since the start of my last one. The last one started one day before the full moon, and this one started 4 days before the full moon. Anyone else noticed this kind of thing? I've heard in different "faiths" that if a woman's cycle is in sink with the full moon, that she's supposed be more "empowered". Any theories?
(It's so cool to have a forum where we can discuss physical female stuff)

Hi Raynaadi
 I've only ever heard about the theory about if a group of women live together or work together that they start to have periods on or near the same day. Take Care

my best friend's cycles are in sync with the full moon. Also, when I was in college and had the same 3 roommates all four years, our cycled synched themselves up too.

I can't confirm right now whether I am in sync with the full moon or not, but I do know that my mother is completely in sync with me. And if my time should fall around a full moon, then I am extra belligerent!
Does that make sense?

This is very interesting. I also heard that if a group of women live/ work together they have it on the same day and I know it's true. When I was in school and my mom started to go through menopause, it's strange but my period stopped as well. But when my sister would come home to visit from college, within a couple of days mine would start and when she left, I wouldn't have it again until she came back to visit.

i'm not sure... i guess it is a lunar cycle (a monthly cycle) but i'm not sure about the in phase with full moon thing...
because... women who live together tend to cycle together. i think they tend to converge on around the same time... but everyone can't cycle with the moon or they wouldn't alter when women moved. it is kinda interesting... amazing how our bodies react to pheremones (i guess it is about that) lol. |

Certainly there is foundation for this! Communities of old even planned events around such... It doesn't just take women who live together, but women who work together in offices or close areas also begin to cycle together.
Native Indians celebrate this occurence. It's all part of the creation being laid out through laws of science etc, imo.

My junior year of college, I lived with 4 other girls. By the 3rd month of living together, we all had our periods the same week! Man, that was a house you did NOT want to come near that week.
 Maybe 6 months into living together, we got a female dog, who promptly went into heat the same week we all had our periods. Couldn't make it up if I tried!

My husband coached a girl's soccer team and most of them ended up having theirs around the same time. He said it was not fun to be around 32 hormonal women.
Me? I laughed `til I cried. Poor Hubby and Head Coach. I've definitely heard of it before. Heck, Hubby lived it.

anyone want to know the evolutionary reason??????
it is so women will be 'out of action' at the same time. or, not 'out of action' precisely... but fertile around the same time... so nobody misses out... or something lol |

LOL. Would that matter since the men are always ready anyway?? LOLOLOL!!
I lived with 3 girls once and we joked that we'd put a red light up when we all got our periods to warn everyone. But ya know? We never got in sink. I have to wonder about that. The year that we lived together was NOT harmonious. I wonder if that has something to do with it? But then again, work is not always harmonious and many women's cycles sink. Maybe a non-harmonious living situation is not conducive to cycles sinking. Wouldn't that be trippy if those of us on the boards started getting in sink? Haha.

I havent heard of your period being in sync with the moon, but as for me my daughter and I are in sync. I guess that is what happens when 2 females live in the same house. ours are like 1 or 2 days apart. weird huh

I gave birth to my daughter on a full moon night and the maternity ward was overflowing. There were women in labor on beds in the hallways. The nurses said it was because of the full moon!

It seems that since ancient times the women of Israel have habitually celebrated the appearance of the new moon, which was linked to their menstrual cycles. ...

I am every 28 days, like clockwork. No matter what. Even my girlfriend (whose lived with me for 7 years) is like that, but we are never at the same time. Weird, how some women can eventually cycle together, and others don't. AND, we're not on Birth control, just regular I guess.
