Living with Women

[sara-t-05.livejournal.com]

I've heard that it can be true that sisters and mothers living under one roof get their periods around the same time.
Well, that has been proven TRUE for my family because I have 2 sisters and my mom. At the same time every month we would all menstrate.

Anyways, here's my question. I've been on the pill for about 4 years religiously and my youngest sister just started taking hers this past month. We both started on the same Sunday because I'm afraid that if she gets hers a week or two after mine, it'll mess me up because the horomones or feramones in our breathing air would mess my period up.

Well, she ended up getting break through bleeding because she started mid-cycle and now my body is acting like it wants to have break through bleeding. I get cramps, PMS... yadda yadda, but my period is like 2 weeks away.

Is her breakthrough bleeding causing my body to want to have break through bleeding, too?

I've always heard that some women are "alpha" women, and people's cycles will align with theirs. I think I must be one, I've had a couple of friends over the years that have said they have irregular periods, yet always seemed to have a period when I did, if we were hanging out a lot.
