menstrual synchrony

amused...


so after being on depo for 6 months i started getting my periods again. only every month they got more and more late. then over two months ago they stopped. the first month i got freaked but after 2 tests i was sure that i was not pregnet. then the second month came and went and i worried again but i took another test and again - nothing. in this time though i've been a real hermit and have not spent time with anybody much less females. i kept joking to my boyfriend that it's just because i've been around no females....

so 2 1/2 months go by with no period. then my friend comes into town and we spend 2 days together. on the second day of spending time with her BOOM - my period comes. now maybe this is just me but i thought it was kind of twisted and odd that i only got it after i spent time with another woman

just thought i would share

yah - it's just crazy you know. i mean honestly though i'm kind of glad to finally get my period. it was rather annoying the whole 'not knowing' if i was pregnet or my body was just having issues

i know the feeling, believe me. i remember when i was put from the pill to the patch- i was used to getting my period tuesday morning, and the first time on the patch i didn't get it until wednesday noon. i swear, i was crapping myself. mostly because my boyfriend and i are active, and i'm always paranoid.

I don't think she was on any birth control, ever. But my friend Arianna didn't have her period for over a year and then she started hanging out with Liz and me (both on the rag at the same time) quite often and she got her period last month. So, I think it is possiable that other women can trigger a lost period.

Studies are starting to show that it's more coinsidence when females synchronize than it is a chemical thing, but it's still a cute excuse. Especially if you were ever to have a posessive bf... "hey I'd get it like CLOCKWORK if you'd let me go out with the girls more!"

hhhmmmm

it was quite the coinsidence ~ lucky for me my boyfriend is not posessive type so at least i dont have to worry about that

i was just tired of buying preggy tests and waisting the money on them

I hear ya. I think if you google it, there's a website that sells them for SUPER cheap. I don't know how well they work or why they're so damn cheap but it might be worth looking it up.
