Women why do we get "horny" just before we get our periods?!


Question: The drop in estrogen and progesterone causes the uterus to shed its lining. Since both of these hormones are androgen blockers, when they drop, the level of androgens - things like testosterone - goes up. In the long term, androgens strengthen muscles and cause you to lose hair. In the short term, they make you tempermental and increase libido. Essentially, before your period, your hormone balance is closer to that of men than otherwise.

hormones....

you ovulate a couple of weeks before your period and in between then and the period we get horny so that we'll have sex and get pregnant

Some women seem to feel strong arousal two weeks before their period (about the time they are ovulating or releasing an egg).

i guess it seems like the answer to everything:
HORMONES............................

ovulating

hormones. and hell if you have a good man, be happy :)

You say that like it's a bad thing....

It's an evolutionary thing. We are most fertile because we're ovulating soon, so it's a tactic for us to go out and procreate and get knocked up.

That was the goal way back in pre-hominid days, and still technically our goal today - but only from a clinically biological standpoint. Personally, my LAST goal right now is to have kids.

Hormones I suppose. It always happens to me when I'm on my period, which is a little inconvenient. Luckily I have a man who doesn't mind ;)

Exactly the same with me and i really dont understand it!
except i always get horny the night before i get my period.

Because you've ovulated and that tells your body that you can get busy and make babies.
The associated higher temperature (nice pinky skin and redder lips) and swollen breasts add to this in the race to attract a mate.
Make the most of it and blame the hormones (but be careful!!!).

loads of woman,are like this before their period,its the hormones,going daft inside us,wee cant help that,its naturel,can get something,to balance them out,in health shop,just ask,its called busy b,,,with vit c..high strength,i got mine out,holland and barrett,they do work,theirs 60tablets,good luck,

idk....I just do........but I'm horny all the time anyway...

because of our hormones.

Because that is when we are ovulating, and by nature, we are a species that need to reproduce in order to reamin in existence. Our bodies know, that at that time, it's very viable that we could become pregnant.

Kinda like cats in heat, I guess....... lol Miiiaow.

Just your hormones flooding your body trying to get you to have sex and make babies. Your periods follow ovulation, when you have an egg present just waiting to be fertilized, and your hormones want you to drop everything right then and have intercourse with someone, anyone! Just nature's way of ensuring survival of the species, wanting you to not think about it, just do it!

Only FREAKS do.
