Smelling your period

[spoiledkitten.livejournal.com]

I wonder if I'm alone in this, but before I get my period, I can usually smell it coming. Probably a few days before I get it, I notice my smell changes. Anyone else experience this?

Yep. I kind like it though--it's different, and smells womanly (well duh, but I hope you know what I mean.)

I also change in smell as my cycle progresses. I can't stnad the odor I have after ovulation, but before I am beginnign to be able to detect my period starting.

you are not alone (well duh, 6 commenters so far have agreed)! I don't really care for it at all, but yes, my "smell" changes just before the flow

I can only really smell it right before it starts...when it's feasible that there really is blood very near. Other times, I've never noticed...but I'm gonna be conscious of it now.

Oh! This is really interesting. I've never noticed it myself, so what kind of smell is it?

I think that it's different for each person.. but for me, it just smells really musty.

Yep. It smells like brown bread and chocolate, which i quite like, or salsa, which i don't. Ive yet to figure out what causes the difference between months.

I can smell it, too.
I can sometimes smell the difference in my sweat, even. :/
