question!

can losing your virginity make your cycle more regular? because i lost my virginity last month and for the first time, i think, EVER I got my period on the same day two months in a row. Any ideas?

i think someone already asked that. i wouldn't think that losing your virginity would cause you to be regular. it didn't for me anyways.

there is no scientific basis for that assumption.

It sounds odd (and counterintuitive) but I vaguely remember reading that in female cats mating actually stimulates ovulation. Barbs on the male cats' penises in some way help induce ovulation...there's a little bit about it here: http://cats.about.com/cs/pregnancybirth/a/mating_game.htm . Not the most authoritative source, but I've seen it mentioned in other places.

I am by no means suggesting that this happens in humans, but the possibility of a pathway is there. It's interesting, at any rate :)

regular sex and interaction with a male day to day would. not just losing your virginity. the hormones from the sex and the pheromones from being around a male have an affect on your cycle.

i actually learned about that today in developmental psychology. in a study, women who were exposed to the sweat of a man on a regular basis started to ovulate more regularly. like someone else said, it's nature's way of giving you more opportunities to get pregnant

There's no proof, but I would think from an evolutionary perspective it's possible. Your body's way of trying to get pregnant. Just speculating here.

I know that my cycle definitely got more regular once I started hanging out with guys more. Bizarre but rather cool, and there is a scientific basis for it as someone above mentioned.

RENT

This has nothing whatsoever to do with your post, but YOUR ICON ROCKS!! Rent is my absoluter play, and I'm on my second soundtrack due to wear and tear. :) Where did you find it?
